How easy it to use a buccal swab?
Very easy. Anyone can successfully take a cheek swab from their pet and send it in. It is quick, easy and, most importantly, stress and pain free for your pet. Compare that with a blood or tissue sample, where you must take the time to drive your pet to the Veterinarian. When you get there, your now stressed pet must be taken in by a technician, have a needle stuck into a vain and blood or tissue sampled. What is worse, the vet will normally charge you for the privilege of sticking them with a needle!
