Default wire hair yorkie

Hello-I am new to all this. I have several yorkies--I have a standard toy (longer nose) 6 lbs that meets most breed standards. She does have a bit of a thin coat. I have a double coated yorkie that when used for breeding to her produces 4 to 6 lb perfect breed standard complete with baby doll faces and beautiful coats.

My question is this: I recently took in a yorkie with papers--the papers did not show a long pedigree--not even three generations. She is 6 months and wiry haired-long but no where near where is should be--her ears flop at the top, she has a long snout and larger nose. She acts like a Jack Russell more than a yorkie. I check the breeder and references and they were all good. I then had a DNA Canine Heritage test performed by Petco--results show primary secondary and tertially: 100 percent yorkie. Could this be? I find it hard to believe. Any other testing one would recommend? She weighs about 5 lbs and is 6 months old.
