What is a parentage verification?

A parentage verification is a comparison of the hereditary information (the DNA profile) of the offspring with the sire and/or dam.

We determine the DNA profile of the offspring and we need the DNA profiles of the parent animals to check the parentage. With a correct descent, all hereditary information of the offspring is combined with the sire and/or dam.

A DNA profile and parentage verification do not provide information about hereditary abnormalities.
