Am I a Poodle?


There are a couple of companies that will test a dog's DNA to determine what breed it is. Since Charlotte is so unique, we thought it might be fun to have hers tested. We got the results the other day and we think we wasted our money. Or that the lab mixed up Charlotte's sample with that of another dog. Here are the results:
  • 37-74% Poodle
  • 10-19% Pug
  • 10-19% Siberian Husky
  • Less than 10% Bichon Frise
The database for the testing company we used has 63 dog breeds including Australian Shepherd, Golden Retriever, Border Collie, English Setter, and many others that we thought we might see in Charlotte. I'm thinking of sending the company a picture of Charlotte and either asking for a retest or for our money back.

I talked to B about this the other day and was shocked. No way is that animal a poodle. Since when is 37-74 an acceptable range anyway?
