Amstaffs are illegal here in the UK so I hope she is bully x

XL Bullys are not banned here, although AmStaffs are.

However, the law only refers to 'type' so parentage doesn't always count.

The best thing you can do is make sure your pup is trained, friendly & well socialised - then you won't draw attention to any traits that might make someone think she's a Pitbull type.

Hello and welcome.
From what I can see, an XL bully isn’t particularly long-legged but looks quite chunky/massive so I doubt it comes from that side.
Had your girl had KC papers, I could have suggested that she’s staffy with a terrier build. But if she is staffy cross, very difficult to say with what.
As gilly says, make sure she’s well trained to make sure the only attention she’ll be bringing to herself is due to her friendliness.
