It's not a way to rip off the public, but yes it leaves a lot to be desired. This type of test measures things against itself and this is the weakest type of testing there is. As more and more samples are taken the differences between breeds will become more clear, but anyone taking a test is adding to the overall information base. The AKC won't take this test as proof of being a purebred. I think they only use the DNA test to determine if the offspring is truly the offspring of a certain parent.
Yorkiemommy1984, which type of test did you do, and can you scan the results, we might be able to gain more information.
