Pets Become Family

Life is funny and things happen we never expected like this week when I found out about EpiPaws Epigenetic Pet Age Test. Charlie has been wondering how old his dog is for a while now. Then the other day I received a Press Release about new companies.

One of the companies was called EpiPaws and they offer us pet Age Test Kits for Dogs and Cats which will keep Charlie from guessing and wondering how old Bear is. I handed Charlie the test last night. Charlie has been packing for our Day Trip to Hobart, Oklahoma to see his girlfriend.

Once we return home Charlie can’t wait to use the test with Bear and if we still had Annie I would have wanted to test her as well. David thinks we should test Phebie because we got her from the Shelter and were not sure how old she is.

Be watching to see which dog we use the test on and what the results are. As well as what my sister thinks of the kits which she could use with her Cats. As well as what David’s mom thinks of the test because we need to find out her Dog Penny’s age because she is very confused on when she got Penny.

About:

The most accurate way to estimate age in dogs and cats! Use science to discover your pet’s age with this easy and accurate mouth swab test. Each age estimate comes with health insights specific to your pet’s life stage.

Each kit comes with everything you need to collect a DNA sample from your furry friend and send it to the lab for analysis.

How we do it:

We measure DNA methylation at certain areas of the genome to estimate your pet’s age. This molecule that attaches to the outside of the DNA sequence is the gold standard for chronological age estimation.

Thank you,

Glenda, Charlie and David Cates
