Accuracy evidence
In a peer-reviewed 2024 study in the Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, University of Colorado researchers sent cheek swabs from 12 registered purebred dogs to six direct-to-consumer companies. Orivet reported the registered breed at 100% for 7 of 12 (58%) of the dogs.

| Accu-Metrics (ViaPet) | 0 of 9 | 0% |
The study tested purebreds only, so it can't tell us how well any test resolves a mixed-breed dog. It also didn't test health results. Read more in Are dog DNA tests accurate?

About health results
A DNA health flag is a reason to talk to your vet, never a diagnosis. Many variants raise risk only a little, and confirmatory testing is the next step.
