Her mother was a Staffordshire bull terrier. I don't know if she had other mixes in her.
The woman didn't tell me what her father was and loads of people think she has pitbull in her?

I have a puppy that's 1/3 bull mastiff and 2/3 pit bull and your little guy looks almost like mine did when he was that small. Can't really say for sure but with the markings id guess he's possibly a cross with something. So adorable!

When I got her they said she was a Lab. My friend who has a pit said she looks like she has some pit in her so I was just curious.

I know that my Dozer is a Pit bull & lab, however I was told that he has chow in him too. I have a question, if you dog looks like a pit bull could you dog have an attitude like one of the mixes that's in his blood?

I got Lucy at the Kansas Humane Society and all that they could tell me was that she is a Lab mix. They didnt know what she was mixed with because she was found on the streests. She is the dog on the left, the one on the right is her brother.

Hello
My question is what do I have? I was told she is a pit lab mix but I don't believe it anymore her ears are sticking up on the side and do not lay flat to her head the fur is really really short and the jaw line has a v shape.
I am really happy with her she is a great pup but I wanted to know what she is because the sport training I want to do is depending on what she is hope it make since! Here she is 14 weeks old.
Thanks

We were told she's a lab/bullmastiff mix.....but the face doesn't look very mastiff.
Any chance she's pit? Whether it's warranted or not, the wife won't want her if she's pit. Can you guys let me know what you think? Thanks,
Editor's Note: Here are some pictures of bullmastiff puppies:

She does look like some of them. The lab would smooth out the features some.

Take your dog to the vet and ask his/her opinion.

Is it true that if the dog has spots on the inside of the mouth that they are full breed?

Clench your own jaws together, and feel the muscle at the corners of your jaws bulge outward. That muscle is well developed and selected for in the pit breed, which gives them that blocky head look. Find a mature pit bull in your area (ask your vet or local animal shelter where) and you'll see the 'look' right away.

I WOULD JUST TRAIN MY PET IN THE BEST POSSIBLE WAY, ANY ANIMAL IS AS GOOD AS IT'S OWNER. IF YOU THINK IT PITBULL OR PITBULL MIX TAKE THE TIME FOR TRAINING.MAKE SURE THE DOG IS NOT AGGRESSIVE. TEACH IT TO BE LOVING.
I HAVE A ROTTIE /DOBIE CROSS, 110lbs OF POWER, BUT SHE IS VERY LOVING. TO ANYONE THAT COMES IN CONTACT WITH HER. SHE CAN BE AGGRESSIVE IF IT CALLS FOR IT. SHE IS VERY PROTECTIVE OF ME. BUT SHE ALSO GOES BY MY VOICE LEVEL & TONE IN MY WORDS. I PERSONAL FILL THAT ANY PET CAN BE A GOOD PET JUST WITH PROPER TRAINING & LOVE.
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR DOG & THE TRAINING OF IT.

If you want to find out if your dog is a pitbull check out some of the canine DNA sites. Your vet can do the blood draw and send it to the laboratory of your choice.

Hi im Holly. Hi I own one pit bull and they usually have large jaws from just a month old, not very big jaws but it looks different then a labs jaws or even a boxers. Usually pit bulls have unique colors like a goldish yellow or multicolored kinda like your puppy. Pit bulls are usually short and very muscular when they are older, your puppy looks exactly like my pit bull puppy and a lot in common! Here's usually what pit bull puppies look like! But this is just when there 3-4 weeks old!
Oh and everyone don't use this picture its copyright TO ME! Please don't use it without asking! Thanx!

Request: How Can I Tell if My Dog is a Pit Bull?
I recently got a dog that I thought was a lab mix. Now she (Mocha) looks more like a pit every day. How can I tell if she is a pit?

RE: How Can I Tell if My Dog is a Pit Bull?
If her fur is VERY short, unlike labs and if her jaws are more pronounced as she gets older. Labs are large breed dogs and Pits are medium sized so that should help you as she matures. To me she looks like a Pit mix. You can never really tell until she reaches about 6 to 7 months old. (01/11/2008)

RE: How Can I Tell if My Dog is a Pit Bull?
Well, this probably isn't frugal, but I read that you can now have DNA testing done on your dog to determine what it's ancestry is. There was an article and photographs of different dogs. In the captions it explained what was discovered, Australian shepherd, border collie, chow mix, for example. I can't remember where I saw the article, but it appeared recently in a magazine.

RE: How Can I Tell if My Dog is a Pit Bull?
Some breeds can lock their jaws. Our Staffordshire Bull Terrier (Kuma) holds on to rope (locks his jaw on) so well that you can lift him 1m off the ground.
Here is a picture of him at around 6 months old.
Your vet will most likely be able to tell you too. (01/12/2008)

RE: How Can I Tell if My Dog is a Pit Bull?
I would sign up for obedience classes; a reputable trainer should be able to assist you both with breed recognition and assisting with any breed specific challenges or issues you might have. http://www.dogpro.org/ is a good place to locate a good trainer in your area. There are also many bull breed Yahoo groups that would be happy to look at photos and help you out. Good luck! Your dog is a cutie; please do not give up on her just because you think she might be a pit bull mix. (01/12/2008)

RE: How Can I Tell if My Dog is a Pit Bull?
Depending on the way her head and body shapes as she gets older will help you determine whether or not she has pit in her. My pit/lab looked just like a pit until he was about 8 months then you could see the lab in him because of his longer legs. (01/12/2008)

RE: How Can I Tell if My Dog is a Pit Bull?
My daughter has a "lab mix" 5 year old that started out looking like a lab puppy until the ears gave her away, lab ears lie flat against the head. Abby's ears go every which way depending on what's going on. She's the best, most loving friendly dog ever. It's all in the training. (01/13/2008)

RE: How Can I Tell if My Dog is a Pit Bull?
To me you puppy looks like it has Pit bull in it. I am a Vet but, you can't always tell from pictures. Not all pit bulls ears stick up, you get there ears cut if you want the ears up, they're originally flapped down. But, look at the paws, and if it is about over 2 and 1/2 inches. It is most likely a pit.

RE: How Can I Tell if My Dog is a Pit Bull?
What a cutie!
And she does look *exactly* like our Lab-Pit ... Our dog was completely black with big paws and was a great family pet for over 15 yrs!
She was very strong.. but never a problem to our family or to anyone else or to any other animal in fact she was a VERY friendly animal!
We miss her! :( (01/15/2008)

RE: How Can I Tell if My Dog is a Pit Bull?
A mature lab has a blocky head, and a Pit has a more triangular head. You need the opinion of a person who can see your dog in real life, not from a little picture. Sorry, but ask your vet whom to ask. Good looking dog! (01/16/2008)

RE: How Can I Tell if My Dog is a Pit Bull?
Well she looks a lot like my pit mix did, he`s almost 2 years old now very strong big and about the sweetest dog you can ever meet.
If she is, don`t just give up on her with the right training from the start a pit is harmless mine plays with neighbor hood kids as well as my own kids and grandkids (01/23/2008)
