I know exactly what he is. He's a good boy.

Looks like a pure bred, bonafied good boy. You can tell by the smile.
Dog.
I agree
Dog expert here, I can confirm it is dog
Possibly.
Its a dog
Not a canine expert by any means but it indeed appears to be a dog. Mystery solved!
I too am not an expert but I concur that this indeed appears to be a dog.
Dog.
He’s a good boi playing a good boi disguised as another good boi!
Purebred mutt. 100% good boy.
Those ears look like German Shepard. The rest of him hints at Pit Bull.
If that’s even remotely close to accurate, you’ve got a super intelligent good boy on your hands. And while intelligence can be good, it can also lead to a lot of trouble. 😅 make sure to keep him stimulated and tired. 🤣
I'd definitely agree that it's a Pit Bull cross with a shepherd of some kind. The shape of the face definitely suggests Pit Bull to me, but I get more of a Belgian Malinois vibe from those ears:
Could explain why two hours at a dog park didn't crush his energy levels, Malinois are renowned and/or notorious for their exercise needs.
Maybe Belgian Shepherd, they have darker fur.
And they're friggin escape artists. If you thought huskies are good at escaping, you've never met a malinois. On the plus side, they're one of the most loyal dogs you'll ever meet.
Edit. Actually, now that I'm thinking about it, malinois just take everything to the extreme. When they get excited, you've never seen a dog more excited. When they get protective, they're the most. And so on.
Dog breed: Batman.
He looks exactly like a fine little doggo
He's happy is what he is.
Looks to me like he’s awesome.
Dog.
Confirmed good boy.
Thats a good boy. Looks like the best kind, a mutt.
Looks like a dog.
I don't know. He's wearing a shirt. Dogs don't wear shirts. Maybe a dog, but it's unclear.
He is definitely 100% good boy. Congrats on the adorable sweetheart.
You don't need a DNA test. I know what he is. He's your dude. That's all that matters.
Happy, he’s happy. Good boi!
Definitely one handsome feller!
Well one things for certain, he’s not a cat 😂
Belgian Shepherd - Staffordshire Terrier cross would be my guess.
He's gorgeous! It's always hard to guess breed mixes based on appearance alone, as physical appearance is determined by such a small percentage of DNA. It's always fun to guess, though! I've worked in various animal industries for years, and we always start a poll when someone submits their dog for DNA testing. My guess for the predominant breeds is either Belgian Malinois or German Shepherd, then Staffordshire terrier.
Congratulations on finding such a fantastic dog, and I hope you update us once his results are in!
I’m guessing pit, German Shepard, boxer, and maybe a lil bit chow chow.
Btw got a link to that harness and seatbelt thing? Looks comf.
Any harness will do, really. We don't even use the harness outside of the car. He does pretty well just being walked on his collar. He only ever pulls if he sees a squirrel. That's one area where we're working on training lol
I would be totally unsurprised to find out there's some pit in there. He came from a shelter, and all the local shelters have tons of pits. His history before the shelter is a big question mark.
Sick thanks!
Yeah a lot of shelter dogs have some put in them including my dude (15 %)
It's easy to see what he is.
Happy!
He's your dude! You know exactly what he is!
Because he's really smart, it's important that, in addition to physical exercise, he get mental exercise as well!
