What is PooPrints?
PooPrints is the first and largest commercial DNA Waste Management Program
What does that mean?
We create a genetic database of dogs with DNA collected from cheek swabs. We then collect DNA from any unscooped pet waste and compare it to the database to identify who hasn’t picked up after their pet.
We are animal advocates. As an organization, we function off of three pillars:
- Promote responsible ownership
- Protect the environment
- Expand pet access
We understand the wonderful value that pets bring to ones life and a community, so our program allows more dogs to live more places.
Our patented DNA World Pet Registry is easy to use and provides you and your residents the utmost security.
The DNA World Pet Registry has been designed to allow you the ability to transfer residents among your portfolio of properties.
The PooPrints Program offers your residents additional pet amenities that are completely complimentary when your property enrolls in the program—they include the BioPet LifePlan, Rover.com and more.
Our company-owned and operated laboratory adheres to FBI protocol, guaranteeing you accurate results and rapid processing.
We have perfected waste collection, meaning your samples don’t need to be kept at a certain temperature or returned to our lab in a certain amount.
Our collections process uses safe and nontoxic materials protecting staff, residents, and pets.
