As I recall the vet said you can not take a dogs DNA and tell what breed it is...you can determine it is canine and if you have the parents DNA you can be positive about whether they produced that pup or not..but a sample of DNA does not tell you 1/3 poodle, 1/3 cocker and 1/3 Yorkie...

As of now, it is not possible to determine the race of human DNA...you can determine male from female..human from animal, but not Asian from African America, Caucasian from American Indian...same with breeds of dogs.
