The DEPOHGEN® genetic test offered by WSU will determine if your dog has the DEPOHGEN® mutation. Dogs with the DEPOHGEN® mutation have a higher risk for potentially deadly bleeding after surgery. To order a DEPOHGEN® test ($70) for your dog, simply create an account or log in if you already have an account. DNA required for DEPOHGEN® testing can be obtained either through a cheek swab or blood sample from your dog.

When ordering a test:

  • Pet owners who choose to submit a sample using a cheek swab will receive two cheek swab brushes for DNA collection and a sample submission form in their test kit. For blood samples, you will not receive a test kit, as your veterinarian will have all the needed supplies on hand for collecting the blood sample.
  • Veterinary clinics and hospitals can submit either blood (2 mL of whole blood in a purple top / EDTA tube) or DNA collection brush samples. When you place an order, simply print out the submission form and include it with the sample.
