It is the embark test but the breeder one that she's doing not the owner one. Im curious about it not working on Yorkies as my understanding is they are always updating the database. I had run it by my friend who used to be a vet tech and she didn't see any issues with.

Re the liver test I've never heard anything about age on that, my vet tech friend was the one who suggested that is the most important one. I'd like some more information on that if you have it.
