I've had better results with the Embark panel and have had the few clients that I have had use it come back with good reviews. It is easy to use and has a fairly fast turnaround time. In terms of genetic testing, the genetic health screening is much more detailed than that of the Wisdom panel. The breed identification appears to be much better than the Wisdom panel as well. I would go with the Embark panel to be honest. I hope this helps guide you in the right direction! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.
