aww, poor people and their furbaby, you just don't understand
You are right though, on both counts. DNA testing for dogs - complete waste of money. Most of my dogs have been lurchers, which is to say a particular type of mongrel. Lots of people with lurchers spend a fortune getting the DNA tests done and get some really mad answers, often including things like '10% chihuahua' for their 30kg, 3 feet tall hound, so they come onto the breed forum where I help out and wail that they still don't know what he is. He's a mongrel. Get over it. Designer cross breeds - sigh.
I find talking to plants does help. If you tell them if they don't grow they're going to be composted, most of them will pull their plant shaped socks up and improve.

He's been on the shelf for a quarter of a century. The least we could do was give him a name.
