Is It a Problem Getting DNS From Other ISPs?

I'm not a proxy expert, any help will be appreciated.

I was trying a proxy provider on https://browserleaks.com/dns and got the following results:

As you can see, it shows Google besides the original ISP.

According to this, will websites suspect that I'm using a proxy?

Unlikely. What matters is existing behaviour/reputation intelligence on the IP address you provided (81.157.94.198) and a Reverse DNS lookup that shows it is a BT Residential Connection, as opposed to being ran by a known proxy provider.

The IPv6 DNS address shows up as Google as you are likely using their public DNS servers (2001:4860:4860::8888/2001:4860:4860::8844) in your network configuration as do about 10% of the World. The entire point of DNS is resolving the IP address of the domain that you request to know where on the internet to send the request to the website.
 
81.134.0.0 - 81.134.255.255 also puts 250 ips in that small block
I really didn't understand you, in my case, should I use this proxy or not?
Thank you.
 
Why not use Google DNS 8.8.8.8
I'm just trying to use this proxy, and I want to know if it's okay if its DNS shows another ISP like Google (like the image above).
 
Based on the description you provided from the browserleaks.com test, if it shows both Google and the original ISP, it indicates that there is a difference between the DNS server your connection is using and the ISP the proxy is trying to emulate.

Many sophisticated websites, especially those actively trying to block bots or scraper activity, do inspect various attributes of a visitor's connection to determine if it seems suspicious
 
As stated above, most modern websites have systems in place to identify your the discrepancies between your DNS server and the ISP you're supposedly on. These discrepancies may be part of a criteria that websites use to flag your connection which could negatively impact your experience.

I really still don't understand you guys, should I use this proxy or not?
I run a DNS leak from my real IP and there is no Google in the test.
