He is a beautiful dog.

• You will need to take the puppy to the vet for his shots.
• In doing so you can ask your vet if he can do a DNA test on your dog. This is the only way to know if the dog is pure breed or mixed breed.
• The vet could charge a lot of money for this test. So before doing the test find out the cost.
• If it is too expensive you can order a home DNA test online or many local pet stores now sell this test.
• Buy the test and go home and do the test.
• This will tell you if the dog is pure breed or not.

Pit Bulls ears come in all shapes and sizes, although they should be fairly small and rose-shaped ideally. That doesn't mean they are always going to look like that.

It is nice that you have pictures of his mother and father but did you actually see the parents? I'm only asking as I volunteer with a pet facility and we are always hearing stories about how they were tricked with photos of supposedly the parents and the photos were "fake" so I hope that did not happen in your case.

• Your puppy is really cute and has already developed a sweet personality at this young age.
• How and where you purchased him will have a lot to do with how accurate/honest the sellers were.

• Your puppy will soon need his health check-up and start his shots/vaccinations so that would be a good time to ask his vet about the breeding.
• Puppies change rapidly in their first year so keep photos of the changes for future smiles.
• Anyone trying to give an opinion of a pure bred will only be giving guesses (even vets) so if you really want to know then a DNA test is the only sure way.
• DNA test kits cost $50 to $250 and can be purchased at pet stores, on-line (Amazon, eBay, PetSmart, etc), and from your vet.
• Here is a link that explains about DNA tests and also a sample site to purchase a kit.

Please be sure to take this baby to the vet soon so he will will have a good healthy start.
