Is my Labrador puppy purebred, or did my breeder sell a mix?

Question

Is this pure labrador breed ??? I think my breder sold me a mix breed and charged a lot of money for pedigree puppy. I can't have dna test as the breeder does in our town only does this test my vet is also with the breeder i do not have his papers. Pet's info: Dog | Golden Labrador | Male | unneutered | 1 month and 9 days old | 3.7 lbs

Unfortunately we cannot tell if a pet is 100% anything without a DNA test. Also a pet this young is impossible to tell what breed it is. I would recommend having the pet grow up a bit and then have him tested when he is about 4-6 months of age. You can go to any vet of your choosing, although it may require you to drive a bit to get to if there isn't one that isn't affiliated with the breeder in your area. It sounds a bit ridiculous that your vet isn't willing to do a simple DNA test though, so I would look into getting another vet if this is the case. You need an unbiased opinion here and someone willing to do tests that you are requesting. I hope that you get things sorted out, and hopefully you have gotten what you have paid for. Best of luck to you! Take care.
