WARNING-Large dog breed owners

These were purchased Feb 14, 2017 and received Feb 16, 2017. On Feb 27, 2017, our 95 lb, 3 year old German Shepherd/Husky mix died. These are not tennis ball sized. They are a bit smaller. We thought they would still be ok. Ourselves and 4 vets/techs at the vets could not get this out. The ball got stuck in the back of his throat. The vets couldn't get a grip on it as it was too slippery. They even tried cutting it out, but because of the hard rubber Kong-like consistency, they couldn't cut it fast enough. I've always used chuck it's, but decided to try these. It was a terrible decision. Remember if its indestructible to a dog, it will also be indestructible to someone trying to save your dog if needed. We are heartbroken. Please reconsider if you're buying for a large breed dog. They are not big enough.

Beware, these treats WILL cause serious health issues for your dog. The larger packages of these have already been banned by Amazon and there is a class action lawsuit pending!!!

Read all of the description, "This collar is too heavy to be suitable for miniature breeds". In my opinion this collar is to heavy for any dog that is smaller than medium. I bought one for a small dog 11 - 15" neckline and have it adjusted almost to full length, my dog weights 16 lbs. This collar is way overkill for smaller dogs. The battery compartment is larger than my dogs snout and the weight of the material and the leash ring is suitable for a Boxer and larger. And I am not sure if you could adjust the straps much shorter because of the lighting inside would not fit through the buckle. Great product but for larger dogs.

I don't know about this book, but I have owned two Canaan dogs.  One was a male and one was a female.  Owning one of these dogs is about like owning a wolf-hybrid.  These are not house pets.  In the middle east, where they are used as herders, they are not pets, more like half-wild dogs that protect the flocks.  Our dogs would attack any dog they saw, on or off their property.  They were harder to control than any other dog I have come across.  The female was a nicer, calmer, and overall easier dog, but she was extremely territorial, and even attacked our other female dog repeatedly.  She was more vicious than the pitt bull/ german shepherd I own.  I am not against the breed.  They are very intelegent, cunning, animals, but I would just like to warn potential owners that these dogs are not completely domesticated.  Please be careful with them; my dogs had to be put down because they attacked a friend's four year old daughter right in front of me, with no provocation.  I would just warn you to watch them around your children.

My 3 month puppy adopted from the shelter looks like a Lab mix with Beagle or Hound, and maybe Aussie or Border Collie, will grow up to be 60 lbs Wisdom Panel DNA just came back as a Chihuahua, Pekinese Mix, Mixed Breed Mix, (Chihuahua all on one side -Parents, Grandparents, Great Grandparents)

Totally wrong! Seems like they got my lab results mixed up with someone else's

Black and white puppy at 4 months old is already 30lbs and the supposed Chihuahua Pekinese Mix

REVISED REVIEW:  At first I gave 1 star but give 2 stars for now since the company contacted me and is trying to rectify.

UPDATED REVISED REVIEW:  I now give 4 stars up from 2 stars MarsVeterinary contacted me and I was able to send them a photo of my dog It turns out if your dog has a Mexican heritage, their database doesn't have enough algorithms to verify the different breeds that come from Mexico, except Chihuahua, so they refunded my money. Michelle from Mars Veterinary was very caring and answered all of my questions. I had gotten my other dog tested 3 years ago and his test seemed accurate (dog on the right as Shepherd/Boxer) I can't give 5 stars because their database doesn't cover every breed imaginable, but I believe the test is worth it if you have a breed that's easier to detect.

Nicely made and strong but much larger than expected, xl too big for my Pitbull mastiff with 22 in neck measurement, disappointing

It's presumably super helpful that there is a sizing chart in the "product images" that let's you determine a size by breed. However, it's extremely unhelpful when there are two images that give differing sizes for the same breed (One says "S" for Yorkshire Terrier, the other says "M" - see attached), especially when you don't realize this discrepancy until after you purchase the product.

I don't want to appear as a disgruntled "This is a terrible product that will poison your pet if you use it", but I purchased this as a gift for a friend who lives across the country (and therefore didn't have the dog's exact sizing), and because of misleading information about the product, it's completely unusable.

Truly lovely photos, some rather nice nuggets of useful information, and unfortunately a fair amount of potentially harmful information.  Jerking your new border collie around on a choke chain and scolding it for this-that-and-the-other is a good way to end up with either a shut down or fear-aggressive dog.  Especially if you have a "sensitive" female dog (ha...there's a reason that so many of the breed's most famous dogs are males; the females are brilliant, tough, and independent, but very unlike the sweet, sensitive males).  Please don't read this book for any of the training tips, and check out the Border Collie Boards online, or befriend a local competitor in herding, agility, disc, rally, or flyball, if you are interested in learning more about the breed.

I have a golden retriever and the large didn't fit. It would be helpful to list breeds in sizing area.

I ordered this AKC Pet Bed in size 22x18x8 for my rescue Cairn Terrier who only weighs 15lbs, however, from the description and dog pictured in the bed looking so comfortable (looks to be a Corgi), it looked as if my dog would have plenty of room to lie on her side. That is not the case for my dog. This bed is best suited for small dogs (Yorkie, Chihuahua, etc) and should advertise that type of dog in this bed. It is a  beautiful bed, but highly disappointed that I purchased it based on the advertised larger dog having extra room in the bed.

Much larger than indicated my dogs both wear 14-20, medium in every other dog collar I've ever bought.  These are huge.  To get them down to even a little close to fitting them, it covered up some of the lettering, which is the reason to purchase a personalized collar.  These are definitely for much bigger dogs at this size.  Order a small for the dogs that normally wear around 16" collar.  Plus the 1 inch size are very heavy to wear and really big on their necks.  Too big.  It also took several weeks to get my order.  It continued to be "delayed" a week at a time.  I wrote to the company and they apologized.  I asked for it to be cancelled and issued a refund, which I never received.  I finally got the items.  The embroidery is good.  That's the only good thing to say about this experience.

Beautiful but....large is really large....maybe for a Great Dane, but not for a beagle / retriever.

Got my results the other day and they said my dog was a Mini Schnauzer and a Japanese Chin mix.  Taking one look at my dog you can easily tell he is mostly Chihuahua.  Sent an email to the company and got the below response:

"Dear XXXXXX,

Thank you for contacting Mars Veterinary, the creators of Wisdom Panel Insights(tm), the best-in-class cheek swab DNA test for mixed-breed dogs.  We have received your comments regarding Tonka's  results and are sorry to hear our test did not meet your expectations. Tonka's profile shows that he is a very mixed dog and our computer had trouble identifying with confidence even the two great grandparents. A main point of our testing is that visual identification is almost impossible; even practiced vets are only able to correctly guess one breed about 30% of the time, and much less when they try to identify more breeds in a mix. This happens most often with supposed 'Lab mixes' because of their collection of dominant traits, making many combinations come together to resemble a Lab.

With Tonka, he has such a wide variety in his mix (from Chihuahua and Japanese Chin to Boxer and Large Munsterlander) that he has a possibility for a vast array of different physical characteristics. However, since we were only able to identify one great grandparent with high confidence, this is grounds for a possible refund. Since you did not purchase the kit directly through us, you will need to obtain your refund through the distributor you bought it through. If you have any problems, please let us know.

If you have any additional questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at customercare@marsveterinary.com or 888-K9 PET TEST (1-888-597-3883).

Regards,

Their website states: "If you are still not satisfied with your results after you have consulted with our customer care team through either e-mail or our toll free number we will be happy to offer a 100% money back guarantee."  yet now they are telling me to contact the seller for a refund?  I'm still waiting to hear back from Amazon but something tells me that isn't going to float.

I was so excited to use this product when I first read about it, its a shame it didn't work out.

I have not read or bought the book but my friend Mike Ruiz left his dog Oliver who is a very friendly and social dog with them for 3 weeks, when he picked Oliver up he had lost 10 pounds, had abrasions on his paws and joints and was affraid. Mike had his dog verified by a vet, they confirmed that he had lost 10 pounds and was not well. All the true and negative comments posted on line about this establishment are errased, so i hope i can save a dog from being abused.

Loved it for the purpose of keeping both my English cocker spaniel and dashound locked up while I'm at work. I gave in a 3 bc I feel like this picture is false advertisement this obviously is the large cage and not the medium which they are selling. Yes the cage is small good for the kind of dogs that I have but not for a large breed let alone two large breeds. The box has a picture of one golden retriever on it but honestly it's to short and small to keep a large dog like that in. Advise if your shopping for a large breed get the large for sure.

This is a nice color and looks great, the only thing is it runs really big, and will not fit my dog even though I bought a medium for her. she weighs around 12 pounds so if you're getting one and your dog is around this weight you might want to go for small. It cost too much to send it back considering what it cost so I guess I'm stuck with it.
