I bought ‘£4k purebred goldendoodle’ puppy – but I was shocked when it grew up to be something totally different

A WOMAN who splashed out on a "£4,000 goldendoodle puppy" was devastated when he turned out very differently.

Influencer Sose Hovannisian revealed her bizarre experience after she picked up what she thought was a pedigree pooch online.

She took to TikTok to share adorable snaps of her brown puppy, who can be seen sitting on her lap and nibbling a dog toy.

The dog appears to be a goldendoodle, a breed which can cost up to £4,000 online.

Sose's puppy was brown to start off with - but she was left baffled by the adult dog he grew into.

She shared pics of the mutt's ears and snout suddenly turning white, before it turned out that the dog was actually white all over.

Sose said: "I got scammed by the breeder and found out my dog was dyed. He wasn't always a crusty white dog."

Whatever the dog's natural colour, he remains a very good boy.

Dog lovers were divided over Sose's decision to slam her dog on TikTok.

Kat said: "He wasn't dyed. Many doodles have a fading gene which means their hair lightens as they grow up."

Terese said: "By definition, there's no such thing as a purebred goldendoodle."

Maria said: "He looked like fried chicken when he was brown."

It comes after a woman who forked out for a purebred Australian Shepherd was stunned after he turned out very differently, shocking vets.

The American woman, who describes herself as an "authentic, relatable dog mom";, revealed her bizarre experience after picking up the mutt on Craiglist.

A video she posted to TikTok includes heartbreaking footage of him twitching on his side during a trip to the vet.

But she ended her TikTok with snaps of him as a healthy, happy adult dog smiling for the camera.

Another woman who bought an expensive purebred mini "poodle" explained why you should never buy a dog on Facebook.

American influencer Didi Perez revealed her shocking experience after picking up what she thought was a posh pooch on Facebook Marketplace.

The influencer shared adorable snaps of her puppy before it grew into an adult dog.

The nine-second TikTok video includes footage of the little mutt cutely pawing its way across the wooden floorboards of Didi's living room.

But Didi was left stunned by what became of it as it got bigger.

Footage of the grown-up pooch revealed how it had become a wiry, hairless hound in no way resembling a purebred poodle.
