    Purbred or not?

    I found a dog that I'm thinking of adopting. I just have to found out how he is with other dogs and such.

    I know I have not been around in awhile. Sorry about that. I just have been really busy and haven't had much of a chance to post. I have been lurking some but that is about it.

    Anyways, I was wondering does this dog look like a purbred Boxer to you all? In some ways I think he does and other ways I'm just not too sure.

    It really does not matter if he is or not. I would love him either way.

    I really hope I can adopt this boy. So please keep your fingers and whatever else crossed for me.

    Tucker is doing great. Growing like a weed! He is so long now, I have no idea what breeds he has in him anymore. He seems to becoming more of a mystery mutt. I promise to post some new pictures of him soon.

    That's a tricky one! I'm going to say purebred... it's possible there's SOMETHING in there.. and if that's the case, he's got 95% of the Boxer in him.

    He is very handsome.. good luck!!

    I really don't consider any dog purebred unless the dog has his/her papers. That is the only way to prove if a dog is indeed purebred. That being said, I can't tell if he's full Boxer or not, I don't know alot about the Boxer breed.

    I hope you adopt him, he sure is a cutie!

    The ears are throwing me off, but he doesn't look "tall" like a Boxer should. Then again it could be the odd angle the picture was taken at, but his legs seem shorter than a Boxer's should.

    Pedigree shouldn't matter though

    Thats what I was thinking. The angle of the picture is making it really hard to tell!!

    He is adorable though, good luck!! I can't wait to see more Tucker pics

    It's so hard to tell with that angle and the lighting. He looks very mastiffy.
    I've been BOO'd!

    Welcome back to PT. I don't think he's pure but he might have a lot of Boxer in him. I am sorry you couldn't adopt him, that sucks
