Here are some pics of me now, and the last 4 of when I was a puppy. I'm about 11 months old, 18", and 40 lbs.
I do not believe that I am a Shar Pei mix (I've been told this a dozen times) because my tongue is solid pink, and I was told by a Shar Pei breeder than a Shar Pei mix would have at least some blue/black spotting on its tongue.

Sorry, here are the pics:

I think he's too small for a bullmastiff or american bulldog mix. I think he's about finished growing. He may end up 18 1/2" 45 lbs tops. I was thinking maybe APBT or APBT/beagle? lol

The ears are the only thing that say Shar pei to me. But I don't really know what else....

I live in rural Arkansas, and I have never even seen a Shar pei, so I'm going on record to say that I'm about 99.9% sure he doesn't have any Shar pei in him.

It would be common for 2 mixed breeds to have had this litter, those parents also having come from 2 mixed breeds and so on. So, you could have many different breeds in "one package". According to your area, and what breeds would be more common there... I see hound, (slightly loose thick skin, slight wrinkling on forehead and a bit of a jowel. I also see Pitt. in the eye set, the stop/bridge on nose and wider jaw. I see a little bit of Lab, the shorter tail (A hounds or Pitts would extend down to hock, labs are a little shorter and thicker) also the coloring, dense coat and deep chest. Hound, Pitt, Lab mix!

He looks very American Bulldog-ish to me except for his size and ears which could be a Pit influence farther back in his lines if it isn''t one of his parents.

Thanks for all of your opinions. When he was a puppy, he looked identical to some APBT puppies I've seen, but as he got older, he started to look a little less pitlike.

looks like Old Yeller in this pic... lol


More seriously I also see some type of pit, or some type of bully breed at least, and lab... ;)


I don't see shar pei (maybe the wrinkles is what others see) but I wanted to say that SP mix doesn't neccisarily have to have a blue spot on the tongue either :rolleyes:

Very Cute!! :D

The only reason I'm not thinking lab is because of his size. Most labs are at least 2 inches taller and 10-20 lbs heavier.
