Hi there i am new to this and was wondering if you could help me out!
we bought Diesel 6 months ago and we thought we where buying a staffie!!
The breeder said he was a pure staff but the mother was registered but the dad was not so we got no papers!!When i collected Diesel we where show his mum and she is a staff no questions asked!! But as we where promised dad was no where to be seen!!! Dont gett me wrong i would not change Diesel for the world and we all love him to bits!!! but just curouis th think what you experts think !!! He 7 months old and really big for his age... 19 inches at the sholder already and getting quite big all over but has this longer sort of ridge of hair on his back and the hair round his neck and on his tail is a little bit longer than other terriers coats i think.... i tryed to contact the deals again but they have changed there number ect..... here are some pics and let me know what you all think!!! I am 99% sure he is 100% staffie but 1 % percent is niggling away at me.... thanks for your help... cheers

Looks like a Staffy to me. :dontknow:

 

[yungster]

I agree with Karen, I think he looks all Staffie to me too. His colors are very similar to Heaven's (my female) -- how cute!

Unless you have papers, there is no way to know for sure what the background of your dog is.

 

[delboy109]

but what do you think?

I'm going to move this to the photo section.

I think he looks quite a bit like Roxy.

 

[Beetle]

What is he? He's a gorgeous dog!

Based on looks and size, I think he's mixed. His hair looks quite thick and long for a Staffie, and he's awfully large already at just 7 months. 19 inches is large for an adult, and he's not done growing yet. It could be that his father is maybe only 1/2 Staffie or something like that.

Like Lisa said, there's really no way to tell for sure. He could be pure and just large for his breed. Whatever the case, he's a great looking dog!

I think staffie. I'm by no means an expert thou.

He's very beatiful. Looks like a staffie to me, but I agree with everyone else, we can't say for sure. I can say, that you should probably get him nuetered (if he isn't already) as his father is a unknown breed and that would be unfair to the breed it-self if you bred him, whether that be on purpose or mistake. It would just be better to nueter him.

looks like a doggie to me just kidding looks like a staffie to me

 

[Shelly]

Hes a very purty dog Myseld, I couldnt tell ya

 

[augrad]

He is a bit big for a staffy, but if he's mixed, I have no idea what with. He's a beautiful dog.

 

[Roxy]

He does look like amstaff to me The face is so like Roxy, but he looks shorter.

 

[dawng]

Maybe he has some rodesian ridge back somewhere in his family tree? He certainly is handsome.

 

[halo]

Looks amstaff to me in fact he looks a lot like Link on the forum

 

[Link]

Nice dog
It can be anything in him. But probably som kind of amstaff/staff/pitbull mix.

*Link is a Staffordshire Bull Terrier after Dublin Red lines.

Unless you have papers, there is no way to know for sure what the background of your dog is.

Agreed!!! But then again you could be dealing with a bad breeder who fudged on the papers and the female was exposed to another intact male during her heat. It is possible for a litter to have more than one dad

 

[snarky]

he's beautiful!!

 

[apbtgurl26]

He definately looks like a staffie to me, but either way he's sure beautiful!!! :wink:
