I purchased a £2,000 purebred Labrador with papers – but he grew up to be completely different | The Sun

WHEN Mandy Parker spent £2,000 on what she thought was a purebred silver lab, she expected nothing but the best.

But as adorable pup Hector grew bigger, he wasn't quite what they expected.


Mandy posted a series of photos of her pride and joy Hector, but not everyone was convinced she got what she paid for.

In her video captioned: "I definitely got scammed…looks nothing like a lab on any of these does he?!

"Must rename this page to Hector the Weimaraner right away!"

Photos of Hector as a puppy versus adult were clear: he wasn't a purebred Labrador.

Another pointed out: "The Labrador retriever club does not accept or recognize silver as purebred.

"Diluted chocolate labs do not give you silver…"
