American Bulldog or Pitbull?

American Bulldog or Pitbull - brindle puppyI've just gotten an American Bulldog puppy, many people who meet her instantly start questioning me on if she's a Pit Bull, or even telling me she's a Pit Bull! I'm pretty sure she is not, but all the comments are making me doubt myself. Pit Bulls are banned where I live so I think that's why I just need some reassurance (my vets are useless they originally wrote down that she was a Staffy).

What a sweet heart !! You might consider going to the library and checking out books on American Bull Dog, their traits and coloring and definitely get a book with color pictures and compare them to your dog.
Good luck, I am sure it would be hard to part with such a sweet
dog. !!

My first thought before reading what you wrote was it was an American Bulldog Pit mix. American Bulldog full breeds tend to be more droopy in the face.

I'd get a DNA kit if you're worried since they are banned there!

To me your dog looks like an American Bulldog puppy. I think people get confused about the different bulldog breeds. It might be worth the cost of a DNA test to avoid all the arguments.

They are costly and also are useless if she is accused of being a Pitbull type, courts wont be bothered by them, so I dont think I will waste the money

The face doesnt look like an American bulldog. They have wrinkles

Your dog is adorable and I think it looks like an American Bull dog. However, if people keep calling your dog a Pit Bull it might pay to have a DNA test done. I just got done reading about another case on here that the dog was taken from the owner because they deemed the dog a Pit Bull and dangerous.

You might have an issue with this and I would really play it safe and do a home DNA test. This way, if anyone questions your dog's breed you can show them the test results. This will help you and also protect your dog.

Hi, I also have an American bulldog and have lots of people saying she is a pit bull. I never met the parents as she i rehomed her.

Staffy is short for the "pure" papered pit bull name. There is no breed called Pit Bull. It's a nice name. It is an American Staffordshire Bull Terrier. "Staffy" for short. There are also other types.
