You may be interested in the response I received directly from the Mars people regarding how many generations back it's even possible to detect other breeds.
In regards to your inquiry, we would say that it depends how recently in the
dogs lineage would the other breed have influences on whether we would be able
to detect and report them. The limitation of the technology, at the current
moment in time, is really only able to detect breeds present at the great
grandparent generation. Anything beyond that is likely beyond our reliable
detection capabilities of the test at present.
We hope this answers your inquiry. If you have any additional questions, please
do not hesitate to contact us at
