Agreed... I don't know about you but, often times when I'm asked by a stranger; " Do you think my dog is a purebreed xyz?". I demur, I certainly never state anything with certaintude. Particularly I've been asked this question about breeds I don't own or breed. Go figure.
The only breed I would be somewhat willing to "guess" on is the one that I breed (BRT's). And only then if there were at least 3 major clear indicators of some type of "mix".
