To be 100% on your breed, you would need a DNA test, But I am going with a Boxer/mix, the face is more like a Boxer, can not see the body type that well.

I see pitbull in the face. To get the complete bloodline you will have to do a DNA test

I see Boxer and possibly a Pit Bull mix. DNA kits run around $100 and will tell you a lot about your sweet pup.

I think this is a Pit Bull Terrier Mix.
Pit Bull Terrier is already a mixed breed between a bulldog and a terrier and is considered to be amongst the most tenacious dog breeds dogappy.com/.../

Of course DNA testing will help determine the breed/mix of your dog.

I would say your puppy is a much-loved breed.
It is not possible to identify a true breed without having a DNA test completed. Most likely he/she will have 2-4 breeds identified but will most likely have 1 or 2 dominant breeds that will determine the pups size, life expectancy, temperament, personality, health problems, etc.
It looks like your pup may be too young to really try to identify a prominent breed and much more information would be needed. Such as age, weight, size/measurements, and pictures of the pup's full side standing up, full facial features, etc.

DNA tests can be expensive but if anyone can afford this one-time cost, the test will provide a lot of health information as well as a lot of useful information.
A DNA test can cost between $65 to several hundred dollars but generally, the least expensive will proved the information you're seeking.
You can find them online, in pet stores and at your vet.

The most important thing you can do for your pup is to be sure he has all of his shots and vaccinations in a timely manner.

I immediately saw boxer when I came across your picture. (We've had a few) but I agree with the other comments that I think he's a mix of some sort..

I see American Pit Bull Terrier, possibly mixed breed, but it's hard to tell from one photo www.alamy.com/white-happy-american-pitbull-terrier...
The American Pit Bull Terrier breed arrived in the United States in the mid-1800s and was further refined. The American pit bull terrier was the first breed on the United Kennel Club's registry - its founder's own dog, but this breed is not recognized by the American Kennel Club. www.thesprucepets.com/history-of-the-american-pit-bull...

The American Pit Bull Terrier is actually a mix of two different breeds, namely the Pit Bull Terrier and the Staffordshire Terrier. These two dogs have their roots in England, where they were bred for their agility, strength, and intelligence. As they moved on to America, however, American Pit Bulls came into being as a substitute for many of the characteristics they had once possessed, namely, a short coat and a great temperament.
Compare the main characteristics of the American Pit Bull Terrier breed. According to the United Kennel Club Pit Bull Breed Standards, a male American Pit Bull Terrier should ideally weigh between 35 and 60 pounds and stand 18 to 21 inches when measured from the floor to the shoulders, a female American Pit Bull Terrier is slightly smaller and should weigh closer to 30 to 50 pounds and stand 17 to 20 inches at the shoulders www.pawlicy.com/.../

These dogs are highly intelligent and curious.
Some mixed breed dogs look like a purebred dog without actually being related to that breed at all. The only way to know if your dog is a purebred or mixed breed is by testing its DNA.
