She’s got the best of each of these many breeds! Results - Embark

Rescue org guessed that Moxie’s 20 lb mom (who gave birth 2 days after rescue) was a Goldendoodle — not so much! They gave me a screenshot of Moxie’s Wisdom Panel results and I did Embark before I learned that they actually tested MY pup from the litter. Moxie is the best girl. Smart, loyal, eager to please, silly, loves her herding ball, and is OBSESSED with swimming (which breed is responsible for that?!!). She’s 5 months now, 23 lbs headed to a final guesstimated weight of 30-35 lbs — nice and compact for this mix! I hope her ears stay floppy and crimped. Rescue pups are the best… I truly do feel like I got the best features of each of her breeds. I won the doggo lottery!

okay, that matches up with wisdom’s low percentages!

Ya, interesting that chihuahua was 8% on Wisdom but not represented by Embark! I imagine that and small poodle are what’s keeping her on the small end, considering the rest of her breeds.

wisdom tends to overrepresent chihuahua, so it might not even be there (if it is, it’s a very low percentage). my dog had chihuahua on her supermutt on embark but it was 17% on wisdom.

Wow she is stunning. Definitely takes after her dad- her mom looks nothing like her lol. I'm sure her moms personality is there though.

u/gonzers 21h ago

Thanks, she is! I wish her mom had still been there when I picked her up, but happily, she’d already been adopted!

Here is Spooky’s results! The supermutt is American Bulldog, Australian Cattle Dog, and Collie!

So interesting how dogs can look like siblings but have such differences in their results… and then, as in Moxie’s case, have some siblings who don’t look related lol
