A Chinese man named Liu, residing in the city of Liuzhou in the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, was left stunned after he ordered a Golden Retriever but received a totally different animal.

       According to Newsflare, Liu spent ￡21 (or 200 Yuan), expecting to welcome a Golden Retriever as his new pet.

       However, the package delivered to him contained a surprise.

       Instead of the anticipated Golden Retriever, Liu found himself the owner of a Tuguo, a Chinese domestic dog.

       This breed, unfortunately, is often referred to as a "meat dog" in the region and is a popular delicacy.

       The consumption of dog meat at festivals in China has sparked significant controversy in the West for obvious reasons.

       Despite its reputation as a food source, the Tuguo is also recognised as an excellent hunting dog, first domesticated by the Han dynasty of China.

       The confusion arose from the Tuguo's name being "Golden Retriever".

       However, Liu was not disheartened by the mix-up despite receiving an entirely different breed of dog.

       Instead of returning the dog or subjecting it to a grim fate, he decided to keep the Tuguo as a pet.

       He pledged to take good care of his new furry friend, whom he found irresistibly adorable.
