The accuracy decreases. Like I said...the accuracy now is only 85% on the first generation....the test isn't 100%. I didn't mean it wouldn't show up...it's just less accurate. The accuracy rating was determine by testing dogs of KNOWN parentage and of those 85% of the time...the result was correct.

Mars has genetic markers for 143 AKC recognized breeds. They compare your dog's genetic markers to those.

This test was never designed for a "purebreed" dog either.
