We thought we had a purebred white German shepherd but were very wrong when a DNA test came back

A COUPLE has shared their surprise when they got DNA results for their dog - and her breed was much different than they expected.

The Reddit user posted a photo of the dog they thought was a purebred white German Shepherd.

They said: "She was supposed to be a white German Shepherd. We did a DNA test."

Instead of their purebred pooch, they got a mixed mutt - but they still love her, and "couldn't be happier".

The test results revealed the pup was only 25 percent German Shepherd, 25 percent Husky and 50% Tijuana street dog.

Despite the mix-up, they still love their four-legged friend.

Viewers of the post found the situation laughable, and shared how cute they found the pooch.

One joked: "And this is why you don't get black out drunk with some random guy in a bar in Tijuana.

"Obviously her mother didn't know this."

Another chimed in: "She's 100% good girl though."

A viewer of the post shared how they paid full price for their dog, which they thought was a yellow lab.

But they were duped: "Pretty sure she’s a German Shepherd/coyote/Angel/melted marshmallow covered in hair."

TikToker Grace Hyland thought she had bought a purebred German Shepherd puppy - but was scammed by the breeder.

And even though it's not what she had in mind, Grace says that she loves Luma "no matter what."

She said: "I thought I was getting a German Shepherd.

"But I think I got scammed because people say she looks like a mongrel dog.

"She is such a beautiful little girl and she gives me so much love and cuddles."

Another TikToker spent £2000 on what she thought was a purebred Wheaten Terrier.

TikToker Bigzozz got the small fluffy puppy in 2020 - and now two years later it’s turned completely white.

However, commenters were quick to point out that the colour change is normal for its breed.

Her dog is an Irish Soft-coated Wheaten, which usually sells for about £2,000.

With this breed, their coat gradually grows out to nearly white at age three before maturing into a wheaten-coloured coat as they get older.
