Why not just enjoy your time together. It's not some kind of canine Logan's Run just sit back pay your pet insurance and deal with the problems as they arise. Being a Heinz 57 Crumpet is probably as fit as they come.

Why bother, is the slightest taint of poodle genes going to change how you feel about her? Go back a few generations and all dogs are mongrels of some sort, just like us.

I'm not sure how reliable they'd be for predicting health issues in anything not purebred. Save the money and get good insurance and go to the vet.

We're thinking of getting a DNA test for Crumpet, mostly to figure out what breeds she has in her so that we can be more aware of any future health issues she might be more susceptible to.
My girlfriend likes the look of this one from Wisdom Panel. They do a more basic/cheaper version that just tells you which breeds are in the mix. Is the more expensive version likely to contain any more info than I'd be able to gain by googling likely health issues for the breeds that the cheap one comes back with?
