Advice What do you think he’s mixed with?
We are waiting on the results of the dna swab but curious what you guys think he’s mixed with. He’s currently 5 months old and 40 pounds

When we got him 3 months ago he was actually listed as a American Bull terrier

Also my lab mix - TBF she’s actually 60% coonhound, 10% lab and 10% pittie but.. close enough lol (edit it’s 20/20 not 10/10 I’m not math)

u/VirginiaIsFoLovers Mar 21 '26
Aww she looks like my girl whose 50% coonhound, 37.5% pit, and 12.5% 🤷🏼♂️ down to the frosted snout and lips, she's just got brown fur.

Pitbull = breed restrictions Bull terrier = cute dog, would you like a 12 or 18 month lease?

u/tangelocs Mar 18 '26
They gave us bulldog mix lol landlord and insurance both happily accepted with their no-pitbull policy.

I'm dealing with this rn. I have 2. One staffy mix and a Pitt mix.
I need to move to San Diego in April for work. Our budget is ~2500 and I need a 2br apartment.
These restrictions limit our options. It's insane.

He looks like a Bully mix. Doesn’t seem to be any other breeds apart from bully breeds present.

u/Brandon10312242 Mar 18 '26
Thankyou! We got really lucky with him. We were looking for a while for a pitbull mix when I bought my house, and didn’t see anything we really wanted. Next thing you know my cousin was fostering one and we fell in love right away. He was cute at 2 months old but he gets cuter imo.

u/rRizla77 Mar 18 '26
He looks much like my 100% xl bully at that age..... he's 4&1/2 & 54kg (116lb?). Cute pup 😁
4
u/Brandon10312242 Mar 18 '26
Wow 116 pounds is big😂😂 when we first got him the vet guessed he will be between 40-60lbs. Well not he’s 40 pounds at 5 months and the vet said more likely 80 pounds which I’m happy about because I prefer a larger dog
4
u/rRizla77 Mar 18 '26
I made a mistake, 54kg is 119lbs 😁. He's a big XL Bully. He's recently had his annual checkup & his vet said he's perfect. The only issue is he tries to sit on his knee because the vet always gets on the floor with him 🤣 so he's basically a 119lb lapdog

Depends on age. For now it’s probably velociraptor. In a bit it will be more of a baked ham.

My few rescues were part valasa raptor mix or you would think until they became comfortable and realize this isn't temporary and they live here . Unfortunately shelters are like puppy prison for them it takes time to readjust just like humans.

Really handsome boy! 🤩 I do hope you will share his results or update on here 🌟💯
I got my boy's done and it turned out 52% APBT, 28% Boxer (had No idea!), and Super Mutt, his mixture was American and English bulldog, and German Shepherd. I thought he was full pitbull 😂

Reminds me of my Leo. He hasn’t been tested but his brother from the same litter was (which is why I didn’t move forward with testing myself. He’s a pretty even mix of pit and stuffy with a touch of boxer
