Guessing the mix in this girl.....

[mainiac]

I'm new to these types of breeds and am just curious if you all as the experts, could take your best guess as to what I have here. She was from a shelter and listed as "mostly boxer". Quite a few passers-by (not necessarily dog people) have asked me if she is a pittbull.
She does have the undershot jaw......... There are some pics in the gallery. Thanks for comments!

Very hard to know. She certainly isn't a full boxer (I wouldn't personally bet much money on her necessarily being even part boxer - she's brindle and she has an undershot jaw, but that could come from several other breeds as easily as from a boxer). If I had to make a wild guess, I would speculate that she looks a little as though she may be some sort of shepherd mix (possibly GSD).

She is a very cute puppy, whatever the answer to her heritage may be. If you really want to know, it is possible to have her DNA profiled (its not that expensive).

She's a cutiepie alright! Hard to tell from here as well. The eyes have a shape to them like a pitbull, but it may not show til she is older and loses some of that puppy pudge.

I did the DNA on both my rescues and it was fun finding out.

don't know what "GSD" means

GSD? Probably really obvious..... sorry!

Sorry - German Shepherd Dog. They're commonly referred to as GSDs.

To me she looks like she has pitbull in her......alot of pitbull and very little boxer. I am not surprised that the shelter said boxer instead of pitbull because of their reputation. But I have known many a wonderful and sweet pitbull. They are wonderful family pets and great dogs all around. She is very cute and I wish you many happy healthy years with her.
