Each genetic marker tested is scientifically validated, and our lab meets rigorous quality standards to provide precise results. Additionally, as new genetic discoveries are made, your horse's test results will be updated to reflect the latest research, ensuring that the insights remain current throughout the horse's life.
Genetic testing is typically required only once in a horse’s lifetime, as a horse’s DNA does not change. However, as new genetic discoveries and markers are identified, test results may be updated to reflect the latest scientific research, without the need for retesting.
Test results are usually available within 3-4 weeks from the date the sample is received by the laboratory. Turnaround time may vary depending on the type of test and sample quality.
Testing typically requires a hair sample with intact roots. In some cases, alternative samples such as blood or buccal (cheek) swabs may be accepted, depending on the specific test requirements.

Our laboratory operates according to international quality standards (ISO 9001/ISO 17025), ensuring that your horse’s data is protected and handled with the highest level of integrity.
Yes, genetic testing can provide insights into a horse’s natural strengths, endurance, and genetic predisposition to certain injuries or conditions. By understanding these traits, trainers and owners can tailor exercise, nutrition, and overall training programs to optimize performance and manage the horse’s risk of injury.
Genetic testing can provide important information about a horse’s parentage and breed-specific traits, which may support registration in certain breed registries. However, eligibility for official registration depends on the rules of each registry, so genetic testing alone does not guarantee acceptance.
If you have any questions after receiving your horse’s test results, our team of experts is available to provide guidance and clarification. You can contact us via email, or phone, or through our platform, and we will help you understand the results and their implications.
Genetic testing can provide insights into a horse’s natural strengths, weaknesses, and genetic predisposition to certain injuries. By understanding these factors, veterinarians and trainers can design personalized rehabilitation programs, tailor exercise intensity, and adjust nutrition to support recovery while reducing the risk of re-injury.
