Color: Pet Food Intolerance Test


Features

  • TESTS 570+ INGREDIENTS TO FIND FOOD INTOLERANCES. This at-home test for dogs and cats uncovers the foods that may be triggering diarrhea, paw biting and licking, or constant scratching. It tests across 14 categories, including proteins, grains, dairy, fats, and additives, so you have a clear idea of where to start an elimination diet and avoid guessing.
  • DONT IGNORE THESE SYMPTOMS. Food intolerances can cause pets to have gas, hot spots, excessive fur loss, bad breath, ear infections, or watery eyes because their gut microbiome and digestive enzymes arent capable of processing every type of food.
  • HOW IT WORKS. Collect 1015 strands of your pets fur, mail them to our certified lab, and receive easy-to-read results in 4 days via email or through our mobile app. Using your results, you can make targeted dietary changes instead of guessing through trial-and-error.
  • 4 SEVERITY LEVELS TO GUIDE YOU. Your report categorizes each ingredient as Insignificant, Mild, Moderate, or Severe responses, so you know which foods to remove or reduce from your pets diet. This helps improve your pets gut health, which then helps reduce or eliminate their symptoms.
  • 3RD PARTY VALIDATED & VET-RECOGNIZED. Our intolerance and sensitivity tests use double-pass validation for accuracy, and were trusted by holistic veterinarians worldwide. Weve helped over 345,000 pets and people find answers for their unexplained symptoms from the comfort of their home.

  • Easy to use and fast results
I ordered this for my English Bulldog. It was very easy to use and I got results within a few days, even though it was right at Christmas time. Results are easy to read and knowing what my dog had a reaction to has helped me to improve her digestive issues

  • Helped tremendously
I got this out of desperation. I have 2 French bulldogs. 1 I knew already is allergic to chicken. The newest pup was having sores all over and thin hair. I kept trying to pinpoint the issue by changing foods. Trust me it isn’t easy to find foods for dogs that aren’t chock full of unnecessary things or chicken fat even if it isn’t a chicken food. Anyway, I got this because I had no idea what else to try for the youngest. It was very very easy. Just hair and send it off. Turned out my little guy was allergic to ALL proteins except beef. And, a litany of other things. I found a food that worked for both dogs and his hair is thicker, shiny, and most importantly the sores are all gone. I wasn’t sure about this but it has helped much tremendously. Photos are from before and after. ... show more

  • A must for every dog pet parent!
Awesome product. My first pooch was having gut issues and doing this solved the problem so now we don't feed him anything he's allergic to. It worked so good that we just ordered another one for our new rescue so we can feed her good from the start. Also, results come fast!

  • Who knew that the food I was given my dog to prevent stomach issues was the biggest offender
I have owned a number of pets and my when my Bugsy developed Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency I had to incubate his food with pancreatic enzyme at $100 a kilo, give him antibiotics daily, probiotics, prebiotics and only protein such as lamb. I was told to stay away from chicken and grains. Well the disease go the better of him and now 2 dogs later I adopted a Rescue that is some sort of mix, she was so skinny when.I adopted her I wanted to give her high quality food without breaking the bank. I used Blue, Nutro, NaturaL Balance using turkey or lamb. One of my life goals, was to own a dog, that was friendly, sweet and enjoyed socializing. I wanted to be able to walk her and not have a problems picking up poop. Anyway Sophie, is gentle sweet, listens well but she kept having poops that were not like the companies all advertise, She always had an unsettled stomach. I was at wit's end and decided to order this kit, because testing her stoo; was almost as expensive as purchasing the testing kit. I was shocked at her results especially because the one red zoned item was lamb. I switched her over to chicken and after a few months is fine, not perfect by a long shot, but I can go anywhere with her. It was the best money I have spent on any of my pets. The best thing is that her food no longer is among the most expensive proteins. ... show more

  • Must do for dogs with severe allergies!
For years, I have struggled to figure out what foods my dog had intolerances to. She would scratch her stomach and face until it was completely torn up. I had tried Apoquel, Zenrelia, Cytopoint, medicated shampoos. Everything. Nothing helped. With this test, I was able to pinpoint that she was intolerant to Lamb, Beef, Salmon, Venison among things like canola oil and other ingredients found in most dog foods. She isn’t scratching now that I’ve removed the items it showed she had a high intolerance to and her skin is great and she has so much energy. This was a lifesaver for my pup. ... show more

  • Not accurate and holds no value
Any traditional vet, internist or specialist will tell you that these tests are not accurate. These tests do not test ige food allergies, just so called intolerances. My dog has a lot of digestive issues with foods and I wanted to compare this test with another one I had done through another company to see just how close they are. I used the same hair from the same day. Both tests showed completely different results. This one made no sense to me because there are things like Quinoa showing as a level 3, but Quinoa Powder showing as a 1. There's no difference. The other was Salmon was a level 1, yet Salmon oil was a 3. Another was beef being a level 3, yet beef jerky a 1. There are things that should be on the test, but isn't. Chicken isn't even on the list, but chicken meal is. There are things like fish that I know 10000% my dog has issues, yet white fish shows as a level 1. People who say these tests work are most likely seeing placebo effect. The company even says in fine print, that the results are "temporary imbalances". If your dog is currently eating or has recently consumed the foods expect them to show as a level 3 like mine did. There's notes on the report I received about how it might not be the protein or food source causing issues and might be the additives so I should switch off of processed food onto home cooked or raw. I am already on a home cooked diet. I ended up getting an email from the company a week later stating that the results I received were wrong from a batch that tested incorrectly and I would be receiving the correct results within 24 hours. The next test was all different yet still made no sense. If they don't have standards to prevent mistakes to me its a huge red flag. Save your money and do a true elimination diet. ... show more

  • My dog
This gave so much information on my dog. She has had an allergy since she was little and trying to figure out was a pain. Glad I did this, now I know what my dog can eat.
