Bluey’s DNA Results

From the moment Bluey waddled into our lives, we were smitten with his soulful eyes and hilarious, squishy charm. A walking serotonin boost with his stout little body, chubby cheeks, and a face that somehow looks both worried and delighted at the same time. We couldn’t help but wonder... what exactly is he?

We knew he was some kind of bully breed, but beyond that? No clue. So, we did what any curious dog parent would do: we sent off an Embark DNA test and waited to solve the mystery. Was this medley of muscle and mischief a combo of unexpected genes? We swabbed his chubby cheeks and eagerly awaited the results…

The results are in...

Bluey is a Micro Bully!

🧬 57% American Bully
🧬 23.4% English Bulldog
🧬 19.6% French Bulldog

Compact, charming, and full of personality! American Bully foundation explains his stocky build and confident strut, while the English and French Bulldog mix brings all the squish, the snores, and the snuggles. He’s sweet, stubborn, and incredibly expressive—a master of side-eyes, dramatic sighs, and sudden zoomies. Winning hearts just by being his lovable, wiggly self—a perfect blend of muscle, mischief, and complete mush.

But Wait—How Old Is He?

As if decoding his breed wasn’t fun enough, we couldn’t resist digging a little deeper: how old is this meatball, really? Embark’s age test used DNA methylation patterns (basically: very cool dog science) to estimate his biological age.

Turns out Bluey is almost 4 years old! 🎂
