Thanks.

I should point out another option. The Univ of Minn did a lot of the EIC research so a lot of people like giving them the business.

Re: EIC again

I like DDC because I can do the cheek swabs myself. My understanding is that U Minn requires it to be a blood draw which naturally involves another vet charge.

I trust them, they're fast, inexpensive and I can do EIC and CNM from the same sample.

Incorrect info about U of MN collection for EIC

They do NOT require a blood draw. You an also do cheek swabs, but not on un-weaned pups. Here is the link with the correct information:

Good to know, although DDC makes it so much easier by sending you the kits and very easy instructions.

Easy to get sterile swabs and download the form off of the website. Tested all of my dogs through U of MN.
