Get your dog to the vet right away, as the size disparity between the two breeds could cause a problematic pregnancy, and a difficult-at-best delivery. And there's no way of knowing what the pups will look like, which parent - if they survive, they will favor. I would reccomend getting your Saint neutered right away, to prevent any further accidental pregnancies.
I agree with Karen, a definitely trip to the vets is in order. And you definitely need to get your dogs fixed, ASAP so this does not happen again! What are your plans for the babies??? You definitely need to trhink about this now, before the puppies even arrive!
I realize you are smiling but I think most of us readers will be :( There are more than enough mixed puppies/dogs out there sitting in shelters waiting for homes to be bringing more into this world. I surely hope that you get your pets fixed. I also agree with Critter Crazy and Karen, you need to get you girl to the vet ASAP.
Please neuter your St. Bernard ASAP! :(
I just wanted to add- It is very possible to spay your Pit now even if she's pregnant. We've done spays on dogs in heat to dogs well into their pregnancy. In many cases, it is the better of the two evils. Please consider this.
As others have said, I'd get both of your dogs spayed and neutered ASAP. Puppies are very cute and exciting, but there is no need to bring more poorly bred dogs into this world, and especially mixed breeds at that. There are far too many unwanted dogs out there and dogs with temperament issues because of people breeding unethically. The only people out there who should be breeding dogs are the ones who are willing to do it properly with health certifications and such with a goal in mind to better their chosen breed.
As far as the puppies' mix, there is zero way to tell what sort of temperaments and appearances they're going to have.
You need to get your dog to a vet right away!!!!!!!!! there is a huge size difference between a saint and a pit bull. gawd I hope you're joking. that's just wrong that you're smiling about that!!!
I agree witht he above posts.. You need to get your dog to the vet right away, the size difference between the two breeds you mentioned could be very bad for your pittie. To avoid this from happening again, please spay and neuter your dogs :)
I've seen a pit bull/St. Bernard mix, the father was the pit bull for the one I saw and the mother was the St. Bernard. The puppy was shaped liked a St. Bernard but had short hair and was brindle like a Pit bull and as it grew generally looked like the biggest Pit Bull you ever saw, because of the jowls, but even when I last saw it at six months of age(when it weighed 76 lbs already and wasn't done growing) it was sloppy and friendly like a St. Bernard,just looked scary as h---.
Interesting mix. I really hope you get BOTH your dogs to the vet right away and have them BOTH spayed/neutered! Yes, you will be aborting the pups, but you will be doing more good them you know. For eseveral reasons...
1. I cannot stretch enough on how many homeless dogs there are in humane societies. Especailly mixed breed dogs.
2. Having your dogs spayed/neutered will improve their overall health and could help add a few more wonderful years to their lives.
3. The Size difference in these breeds are fatal...to both the puppies and the Pit Bull mother. Unless you would like to run a high risk of having dead puppies AND mother dog PLEASE spay her right away.
Schedualing an emergancy spay like this is not a hard thing to do! Please call your vet or any vet right away! It could mean the life of your dog!
Yes, puppies are an exciting thing to witness grow and develope. If you are really interested and think you can handle the emotional stress and the financail stress of raising a litter(yes, they take a big chunck out of your wallet) please become a foster parent at your local humane society. They would be thrilled to have a temparary home for a momma dog and puppies to stay until they are old enough to find homes.
I'm definetly not smiling.Quote:

this thread is a couple of months old, I doubt the OP is coming back..hopefully all went well for the dog though.
So I grabbed a puppy from a friends litter cause he has to get rid of them and it'd be nice for as few of them to die as possible. We thought the puppy might be pit/st. bernard. We know the mom is a pit, but we know nothing about the father. Reading this thread however I think maybe not, there were 0 complications during labor. However, the puppies are huge and have St. Bernard markings, is there a way I could tell? I was also thinking that a Pit/Boxer puppy? might look like a a Pit/Bernard puppy?
Do you have any pictures?Quote:

The last one is just for cute value...
How old's the pup in those pictures? He doesn't seem big enough, or have feet big enough to be part Saint ... or fluffy enough, but I guess time will tell. Does he have webbed toes?
looks like a buckskin one

very cute puppy nonetheless whatever he is.....;)
it's so hard to tell when they are that small..as Karen said I think he is too small to be a saint mix. But you really can't tell too much at this age..he's cute none the less.. Good luck with him :)
In those pics he's 4 weeks and a a couple days, and weighing 6 pounds. He does in fact have webbed toes.
I see no saint bernard, but boxer is a good possibility. The markings on the face are very reminiscent of a boxer's markings.
My dog is the best she has alot of pit bull characteristics but is very protective like a st bernard and she has an amazingly soft coat and is very smart and obedient. Please reply Im very interested in getting one of your pups. my dog is fixed.
Thank you,
Michael Camaret
I have a one year old St. Bernard/Pitbull mix and he is the most adorable loving dog that I have ever owned. He is very intelligent and learns very quickly. I have never seen a dog so advanced in learning. A friend of mine owns a pitbull abagail who got pregnant and when I saw the puppies I had to have one. His name is Bear. He is getting very big for a year old but I have plenty of room for him to play and he loves every minute I spend with him.
I enclosed 2 pics. One of when Bear was a puppy and the second was is him now. Hope this helps =) :D
I just adopted a puppy from a neighbor and he is about 8 weeks old. He has a pitt mom but we are not sure of the dad. He (Roscoe) is so sweet and very smart like the previous person mentioned about his/her pup. He can sit, knows his name, is potty trained, and we have been working on fetching =] I have a lab/chow mix who took forever to potty train so for Roscoe to be so great at peeing outside at 8 weeks is crazy to me. The reason I think he is half st bernard is because he has the softest coat and its very thick, however it is short. My friend owns a full boxer and I don't think the previous guy's pup is a boxer/pitt. My friends who has a st bernard/lab has the dark nose and facial markings similar to joerror's pup.

P.S. I thought it was a little rude for how some of the previous people in the thread kept nagging at the lady about fixing her dogs, she was just trying to get some advice. I completely agree with you guys and have spent a fair amount of time volunteering in a no-kill shelter, however, i think you could have made your point in a nicer manner no one wants to take advice from a jerk :)

I am glad your pup was born without problems. We'd love to see pictures, of course!
The original post is 3 years old, so no worries about that any more.
I have a st. Bernard/pit mix. The mother was the st. And the father was the pit. He is short hair and a wonderful dog. He does great with our 3 year old. Hyper at times but couldn't have asked for a better dog. If you would like pictures of him. He is 7 months. Email me at [email protected]
My dog is a pitt bull st bernard mix. She's a big beautiful bitch and smart as hell. Her mother was a pitt. She gave birth to 7 healthy puppies. I wouldn't worry to much on the mix size but I agree about seeing a vet just in case because I am not one and you really shouldn't pay any attention to anyone who isn't. Nothing is wrong with mixed breeds, in fact their generally healthy dogs than pure breeds because you eliminate any possibility of inter breeding and common breed genetic defects are less common. I personally prefer them. Most american dog owners have become snobby about their pure breds and they love to give their arrogant know nothing advice. So please don't abort your puppies unless your vet reccomends it or you don't have friends who will adopt. If you have some that are considering, tell them they won't regret it. Their great dogs.Quote:

I cannot belive what im reading about how you should abort the puppies or spay amd neuter your dogs, theyre like our children... and certainly dont deserve that treatment!! My mix is not even a month old and is about 7 pounds. The father was st benard and the mother was a pit, ALL of the puppies came out just fine with no complications so people shouldnt suggest such idotic things. I understand due to an infection and such you would need to spay/neuter your dog but to do it for no reason at all? Thats just plain dumb and not fair to the dogs who are a part of our families and ove us unconditionally.
Of course, our dogs and cats are family, but surely, you are aware how shelters are overcrowded with unwanted animals, and all the countless strays that are out there.
Spays and neuters are not being done "for no reason". They serve the important purpose to reduce the numbers of cats and dogs to prevent unnecessary euthanasias, and also to prevent infections and cancers.
I found a list of Pitbull mix here https://americanbullydaily.com/pitbull-mix-list/ I think they are Good! its my first time to know that there is a St. Bernard Pitbull mix. can you show us some images? :D
