  • Helped My Dog

    I was very impressed by the depth and wide range of testing and results. My dog is no longer itchy or uncomfortable and seems happier in herself.

    Jim Willows | Glasgow / January 2025

  • Prompt Response

    Reasonable price. Test was easy (hair).

    A. D. Smith | Barnsley / October 2025

  • Informative

    The price is so reasonable. My last dog had skin problems & the test cost £300 at the vets 9 years ago. The results of this test was much more informative.

    Polly | Manchester / October 2025

  • Dog Intolerance Test Review

    This has been great. 
    My dog was itching, only mildly but more than he should have been, and I’m pretty certain I’ve identified the culprit straight away.

  • Human Intolerance Test Review

    Easy to use and the test results are easy to understand. 
    I already knew of a couple of my intolerances, the results for which were spot on. The items I was unaware about made a lot of sense and having cut some of these out of my diet I am already feeling the difference. Would highly recommend.

Struggling to understand dog allergies vs intolerances?

Got questions?

Q. How much does dog allergy testing cost?  

Allergy testing for dogs can vary widely in price. Vet-administered allergy tests (like blood tests) can cost hundreds of pounds, depending on the type of test and consultation fees. These tests usually involve a vet visit and may include injections or blood draws.

 

As a more affordable option, many pet owners start with an at-home intolerance test, which identifies sensitivities to common foods and environmental factors. Our 5-star rated intolerance test costs just £39.99, and includes testing for 400 items plus bonus vitamin and mineral analysis.

 

Q. Is this a pet allergy test?  

No - this is an intolerance test which uses bioresonance technology to analyse a small hair sample. We test for 400 food and environmental items, plus vitamin and mineral imbalances, to help identify what might be contributing to your dog’s symptoms. While it’s not a replacement for allergy blood testing, intolerance testing can be a helpful first step - especially for dogs with chronic itching, gut issues, or skin flare-ups.

 

Q. Why would I choose an intolerance test over an allergy test?

Because it’s non-invasive, easy to do at home, and much more affordable. Many dog owners use intolerance testing to pinpoint potential triggers before deciding if they need further testing at the vet.

 

It’s particularly useful for:

• Dogs with ongoing but non-emergency symptoms (itching, licking, bloating, etc.)
• Owners who want to trial a new food or exclusion diet with more confidence
• Situations where a full vet workup isn’t financially or practically possible.

We’re proud to offer a simple, non-invasive alternative to expensive vet testing - with fast results and clear next steps you can take immediate action on.

Q. How does the test work?
Our award winning lab uses hair-based bioresonance. Bioresonance is a non-invasive technology that measures the energetic frequencies emitted by hair or fur samples. Every substance—whether food, environmental trigger, or nutrient—has its own unique frequency. When a sample is tested against hundreds of these frequencies using specialised equipment, it can detect imbalances or potential sensitivity patterns in the body. 

 

Q. Are at home dog allergy tests accurate?

Our test uses bioresonance hair analysis, a method that’s been used for years in holistic health and veterinary practices. While no test can guarantee 100% accuracy, our results provide valuable insights that can help you identify food and environmental sensitivities that may be affecting your dog.

Many of our customers have reported clear improvements in their dog’s symptoms after making simple changes based on their results.

 

Q. What’s the difference between allergies and intolerances in dogs?

This is one of the most common (and important) questions we’re asked.

Dog Allergies = Immune Reaction. Symptoms are usually quick and severe: rashes, swelling, sore eyes, even anaphylaxis.
Intolerances = Digestive or Sensory Sensitivities. Symptoms build over time: itchy skin, bloating, licking paws, mood changes.

Dog food intolerances (or sensitivities) are much more common - and often harder to detect. They don’t involve the immune system, but instead affect your dog’s ability to digest or tolerate certain ingredients. Symptoms often build slowly over time and can include:

• Itchy skin
• Upset tummy
• Licking paws
• Sore ears
• Bloating or gas
• Mood changes

Our test identifies these non-immune-based sensitivities using a small hair sample - helping you pinpoint and remove problem foods or environmental triggers with ease.

 

Q. Are there reviews for your dog hair strand intolerance test?

Yes - we’ve had fantastic feedback from dog owners who’ve used our at-home intolerance test based on a small sample of your dog’s hair (just 5–7 strands needed).

Many report noticeable improvements in their dog’s itching, digestion, and overall comfort after following the personalised action guide provided with their results.

You can read our latest reviews on our products pages - including stories from customers who were sceptical at first but now wouldn’t be without it.

 

Q. How long does it take to get the test results?

Once your pet’s hair sample reaches our laboratory, we aim to send your results within 24-72 hours. You’ll receive your full report (plus your free action guide) via email - no waiting around or delays.

 

Q. Can short-haired dogs be tested?

Yes, absolutely. Our intolerance test works just as well for short-haired breeds - including Staffies, Vizslas, French Bulldogs, and more.

You only need to collect 5–7 strands of hair, and this can be done using a grooming brush or fine-tooth comb. The hair around the neck is often the easiest place to collect from.

 

Q. Does the hair need to come from the root?

No - we don’t require hair to be pulled from the root. However, collecting hair from or close to the root can help improve sample quality. For pets, we recommend brushing the hair near the neck using a grooming brush (like a Zoom Groom) or a flea/nit comb to collect your 5–7 strands.
