Do you ever get asked "What kind of dog is that?" We have your answer! Bring your dog to the Iowa Pet Expo to have a DNA test done! For $65, you get the DNA kit and you'll swab your dog's cheek and we will send in the DNA sample to the lab. Results will be sent to you via email.

A few guidelines for the event:

  • There will be A LOT of dogs at the event, so please be respectful and mindful if you have a shy dog.
  • NO retractable leashes, choke chains, or prong collars.

This event will be held at the Pet Expo at the Iowa State Fairgrounds. Admission at the door will need to be paid to get into the expo, as well as the $65 for our DNA testing. The test takes about 5 minutes.

Note: $65 is the lowest price in town, there is no sales tax, and 100% of the proceeds help homeless pets! If you cannot make it to this event but are still interested in a kit, you can purchase one in our Animal House Store for $82. The $65 promotion is for day of DNA Day participants ONLY.
