To lend a helping hand to mutts in need, Biped will donate R100 to FurKidz for each kit that's processed, so please mention FurKidz when you order.

Using Muttmix is very simple - if you've ever watched CSI, you'll know how to use it. Order your kit using the order link, then follow the steps below to complete the process. The kit contains more detailed instructions (which are very easy to follow).

Inside the kit you'll find a customer information card, a prepaid envelope and a paper sleeve containing two swabs.

Step 1: Remove the swabs from the paper sleeve.

Step 2: Place the cotton swab in the dog's mouth and brush the inside of the cheek or brush the gums with the swab firmly for at least 10 seconds. This process is not painful or harmful to the dog. Repeat the swabbing process with the second swab.
