Purebred vs Mutt

I bought my dog from a so called reputable breeder. He sells GSD's and Belgian Malinois to local law enforcers and public for search rescue, protection, attack.
When I brought my dog for his training, I asked the breeder if he had papers for him, he told me " No, if I want to know what he is, get a DNA sample " ( this should have been my first red flag ). When I took him to the vets, he too said he didn't look like a GSD. The breeder showed me both his mother and father and they are twice as small as my dog. My other GSD RIP was 76 lbs at 8 years old. Shiloh is 3 1/2 years and weighs 98 lbs. he is taller. Faster and much much stronger than a normal GSD. I decided to get a DNA sample done and this is my result. He has the coat and chest of a Bernese. The looks of a GSD, and the strength of a Bernard
Still love him to pieces however am disappointed in false advertising.

My question is how many of you have bought what you thought was a purebred only to find out they are mutts ?
