What could he be?

[TexasRanger]

Anyone have any guesses?
Height: I am 6"0 and he comes up to my knee.
Weight: I would say under 20, he is very slim and muscular
Fur: Very short, almost dobe like.
He loves to run and can jump almost anything.

He definietely weighs more than 20lbs! :rofl1: I'd say more like...at least 50.

Given your area, I'm going to hazard a Catahoula mix?

Something about the face reminds me of a pitbull puppy

That's what I was thinking!

 

[Squishy22]

My guess is pit bull mix.

 

[Barb04]

I'd say a pittie mix.

 

[dogsarebetter]

I see pit and maybe lab

 

[BostonBanker]

Some type of cur or cur-mix? Some of his features are very similar to Meg's, and I believe Texas is pretty well populated with them.

curdog maybe w/ a touch of bull. put him on a hog if he finds & catches then you'll know for sure

Being in TX, I'd agree with some sort of curr.

 

[SisMorphine]

I agree with Cur mix. What a cutie, I love Brindle

 

[Laurelin]

houla, cur, or pit mix would all be REALLY common for this area.

 

[sisco16]

Im not sure on his mix but I have to disagree i dont think he is fifty pounds like some of you said both my sibes are about his size from those pics and they only weigh in the 40 pound range.

 

[RambosMaMa]

im from michigan and there are a ton of dogs around here that look like that and they are lab pit mixes

 

[KenyiGirl]

Yeah, I don't think he's 20 lbs or 50 lbs either. He looks like he's about the same size as Hailey, who is a pitbull mix, so I think he's probably in the 30-40 lb range.

 

[misfitz]

Definitely bigger than 20! My Sheltie / Cocker (I think) mix is 20 lbs, and she's only 16 inches tall and all legs. I'd agree with the 40 lb range.

I see Lab in his face, not really Pit. The first thing I thought of when I saw the pic was Chocolate Lab. So I'd say Lab x Boxer.

 

[angelzeus]

he has to have a breed in him that come brindle which would be pit boxer dane i would say most likely he has pit or dane mixed with a lab he doesn't have that boxer look his face is not pushed it

There are quite a few breeds more than those that carry the brindle gene ...

 

[misfitz]

Actually Labs can carry the brindle gene, but it's considered a mismark. And boxer faces aren't all that smushy really -

Though I could see Dane as a possibility, too.

I was trying to find pictures of Meg from similar angles with little luck. There is a lot in them that seems similar to me. General size and body type, ear shape, obviously coloring. Meg's face is a bit smaller, but Pops suggestion of some added bulldog of some sort in your boy may account for that. Along with the gender difference.

There is a whole lot more than pit, dane, or boxer that can contribute the brindle. I'll stick by my original guess of some sort of cur or cur mix.
