Photo reviews
Photos and experiences shared by contributors. Read below how we check submissions.
How reviews and confirmations work
We ask contributors to share a photo they took and their own experience. Reviews go through automated checks. Flagged reviews can be assessed manually. Approval is not a guarantee that a photo is unedited or free of AI generation.
- Email address confirmed means the link sent to that address was used. It does not prove a purchase or the identity of a person.
- Company management confirmed relates to access to this company page. A paid plan does not verify individual reviews.
- A review invitation does not independently prove a purchase. An order reference supplied by a company is not independent purchase verification either.
- Publishing a photo with a review does not automatically permit reuse in marketing. A subscription does not grant that permission either.

Founded by
Professor Matteo Pellegrini, UCLA
ProsperK9 targets dog owners who want scientifically grounded insights into their pet's health and background, rather than basic breed identification alone. The company operates in the premium segment of pet DNA testing, using whole genome sequencing and epigenetic methylation analysis, which goes significantly further than the marker-based methods used by most competitors. Its roots in academic research at UCLA give it a distinct scientific positioning within the consumer pet care market. The typical customer is an engaged dog owner who is motivated by their animal's long-term wellbeing and is comfortable with data-driven approaches to pet care.
