KimberlySayWhat Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 A big puppy showed up last week with a leash around her neck. No collar, no tag. The next day she shows up again sans the leash. I have no idea where she came from or who she belongs to, but she won't leave. I like her. I want to find the owner, but if I don't I may consider keeping her. I don't know a lot about dog breeds. Does it look like she may be part pit bull?

Jeebus Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 Doesn't look like a pitbull.. I would say Boxer mixed with something else. The angle of the picture makes it look like a Boxer and an extremely smaller breed got together though, by the look of the paws.That and its definitely mixed, as a purebred would have its tail and ears docked.

KimberlySayWhat Posted November 16, 2008 Author Share Posted November 16, 2008 Here are a couple of more photos from a slightly different angle. I had to take them through the window. She wouldn't have stood still if I had gone outside to take them. Boxer crossed my mind, too, but like I said I don't know a lot about dog breeds.

NenaE Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 Looks like a boxer mix to me. There are two next door to me. Quiet good dogs, they are. Maybe yours has a chip implant, a vet can tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talbot Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 Definately a Boxer mixed with something else. Its common for Boxers along with Pitbulls have the red color to them, thats probably why you thought it was a Pit.She's a pretty dog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KimberlySayWhat Posted November 16, 2008 Author Share Posted November 16, 2008 Actually it was face that made me think she might have pit blood. For some reason she looked a little like one. Thanks, everyone! I want to find her owner before she gets run over or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crunchtastic Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Boxer and some sort of terrier, looks like. I think there is some dog-adoption karma making its rounds on the HAIF. RedScare has taken in a homeless boxer who showed up. Just sayin....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
houstonmacbro Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 She's a cutie. Same thing (runaway dog) happened to my mother. She goes outside one morning and voila ... a dog.She kept her and calls her Mystery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KimberlySayWhat Posted November 17, 2008 Author Share Posted November 17, 2008 Now I haven't seen her since I took those photos yesterday morning. Hopefully she and her owner found each other. If they cared, they'd have been worried about it. I hope they found her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark F. Barnes Posted November 17, 2008 Share Posted November 17, 2008 Could be a Boxer/Staffordshire mix, Really has the build of a boxer, especially in the second picture, still a very nice looking pup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vertigo58 Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Looks like he's trying to make friends with the kitty? Too bad the kitty isn't grinning at the camera for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I hear her snorting around on the other side. She's also dug a little hole under the fence and I pet her nose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
