Absolutely. In either case, the owner pays for it (around US$50-60, as I recall). I think it is VERY important, given the number of American wolfdogs here, and the propensity of some people to exploit dogs/wolves/our breed for their own personal gain. The big downfall to this is the DNA tests are done by the owner, at home, and submitted by mail.
