Sorry, I don't know the breed but wow you are one brave person. You name him Puss. My dogs name Par and my sons and wife call him Pary. I have another one name Rock or Rocky.

Well theirs no bad intentions behind the name.. He's just a really nervous dog so puss fits him. In fact we named him after Puss in boots from Shrek 2 because similar colors and personality

Boxer/pit???

darkchild16 · Sep 25, 2006

pit mix. or full pit where in fl are you if you dont mind me asking

puss · Sep 25, 2006

New Smryna Beach you?

50 miles from Tallahassee but i used to live in Clearwater down south lol.

He's got the telltale Pittie smile

I'd guess hound/pit mix. He's definatley at least half pit, and he looks houndy...

Renee750il · Sep 25, 2006

He looks to me like he could be at least part Basenji . . .

What kinds of sounds does he make? He has enough of the look that he could be full.

darkchild16 · Sep 25, 2006

either hound or basenji he has some of walker type markings lol.

puss · Sep 25, 2006

Wow he does look a lot like that Basenji dog. I've never even heard of that breed are they rare?

Renee750il · Sep 25, 2006

They are fairly rare in most areas of the U.S., but rather popular in the Louisiana bayou/Gulf area.

darkchild16 · Sep 25, 2006

not really. but they arent really popular outside of the show circle ive found.

Brattina88 · Sep 25, 2006

my first thought was basenji / pit mix

~Dixie's_Mom~ · Sep 25, 2006

I'm haven't read any of the other posts, so I'm sorry If you've already found out what he is, but here's my 2 cents.....

There he looks like a Pit Bull

Ummm I want to say here he looks basenji-ish???

So my guess is Basenji/Pitt mix. Good luck with that Katrina pup! He's a cute one!

puss · Sep 25, 2006

Cool thanks for all the replies at least I have some ideas. Before he was just a mix.

Ohh me too! lol! That must be it. I've read the other comments, and I'd definately say pit/basenji!

Zoom · Sep 25, 2006

Basenji/pit was my thought.

oc_spirit · Sep 25, 2006

I was going to say pit/basenji too OR american staffordshire terrier/basenji

RD · Sep 25, 2006

It's like someone cut off a Pit Bull's hindquarters and glued a Basenji's on in their place. The front of him looks Pit Bull, but I keep coming back to Basenji for the rear. 0.o

Handsome dog, btw.
