i had a puppy JUST like that a while back when i was a kid, named Butch, because he was brindle like a bulldog. looked identical this one. he was a GSD,.Bulldog mix.... he was an accidental breeding between neighbourhood dogs. the mom was shepherd/chow and the dad a bulldog.
i couldnt keep the puppy - though i really wanted to - my mom talked me into letting a friend have him. i got to see him all the time. so yeah.... memories from my childhood, that looks a lot like Butch...
and even if he is a shepherd mix the ears wont always look like a shepherds. they certainly have the same size as a shepherds.... but if he isnt full grown you wont know what those ears will do. for example, some spitz breeds have dropped ears as puppies but eventually turn erect, like the Korean Jindo.
this dog may have rose ears when he is full grown..
i also think he's a beauty!!
and no i dont see any "Pit Bull" in him.. i see more shepherd and possibly golden... either parent may have had some pit mixed in there, but it isnt evident enough to say he is "Half" pit or even a third or quarter... or what ever terms they use.
he's just a brindle mixed breed. and there are several brindle breeds in existence that arent pits....
eta
is it just me or does anyone else see grey hound in that long face?
