I wonder if my Shadow isn't part> at times. Has anyone done this on their Havanese? If so, which one and what did it tell you?
Which DNA testing did you do? Embark by any chance? Some DNA testing is known for getting some breeds, and particularly Havanese wrong. As long as your breeder is a reputable one, I would not worry about it. Many Havanese puppies have puffy undercoats. Their hair SHOULD continue to grow longer and longer however, NOT at all like a Pomeranian.Sooo, Edie, same thing happened to us a week ago! Our vet plan covers DNA testing and Picasso's came back as 75% Havanese, 12.5% Maltese and 12.5% Pomeranian! Huh? Wow!! His breeder is a reputable one that (supposedly?) breeds only purebred, AKC registered, Havanese. I have to say, the most important thing on the report was he had zero markers for and is clear from 159 genetic disease mutations.
Picasso is going to be pretty small (4 months, 4 pounds) and is puffy and fluffy similar to a Pomeranian. He's a sable and cream colored chocolate Hav. Our 7-year-old was a much larger puppy and currently weighs 18+ pounds (Frisco's tall, black and white and very active.) Point being, they will have very different features about them, and after all, that's the very nature of Havanese, I suppose.
