How to Ship Pet Food Samples
Sample preparation:
- Canned, “pouch” and dry foods as well as pet treats can be tested and samples can be shipped to us at room temperature.
- Unopened packages are always best in providing the highest level of confidence in results, but a few pieces of food can be carefully placed in plastic wrap and shipped to us as well. DO NOT cross contaminate samples and each package should be clearly marked with pet food name, lot number and expiration date.
- Do not remove pet food from your pet’s feeding area or bowl because our sensitive tests will detect contaminating DNA from your pet’s saliva or other bodily fluids.
