How accurate are dog DNA tests?

https://www.cbc.ca/news/business/marketplace-dog-dna-test-1.6763274

Marketplace sent 4 DNA samples to 4 different companies to determine the breeds.

Two were mutts (cross-breeds), one was a well documented Great Dane purebred, and the fourth was human DNA.

The results were rather amusing and inconsistent to say the least, making one wonder if this is no more than a scam by these dog DNA testers.

I had a wisdom panel done on my dog. And eventually I'm going to get the Embark done also. Just to compare them lol. At the very least it'll be interesting to see what they come up with. Although I did feel the wisdom panel was fairly accurate. It did not ask me for pictures or guesses on what I thought it was though.

Edit: or I guess posting a picture was optional. Which I did not do. But I do not remember them asking me what I thought it was. Either way I'm a sucker for graphs LOL.
