Hi,

I adopted this boy from the shelter 3 weeks ago.
His name is Tommy.
They claim its an amstaff, but I'm not convinced. What are your opinions? I think its a boxer x staffy or mastiff x staffy

Hellos, welcome and good on you for adopting your boy.
He really is lovely!

As to his breed, I do think he looks like an AmStaff though he could also be a cross that you state.
I would see if he drools because mastiffs and boxers do, staffies and AmStaffs don’t Laughing

Hi from me & Katy, Tommy is a handsome boy Love Struck I certainly can't see any boxer in him or mastiff tbh I would probably agree on Amstaff Love Struck

Maybe, but staffies don’t really have a huge reputation for their bootlaces thinking

Thanks for all the replies. I'm considering a dns test, or would that be a waste of money? He's around 50 cm at the shoulders. Weighs 20 kg at the moment, but could use about 1-2 kg more I think. His legs are so long compared to the rest of his body. Maybe he's lacking some muscle. The vet said he could use some more weight.

He's great already however smileGreeting from the Netherlands Img_2011

P.S. He drools when he's anticipating his breakfast or diner. Or when hungry and he sees something tasty. Then the drool starts flowing.

A DNA test will tell you what mixes are in there so if you have the means and the curiosity, then why not. It might give you the explanation for certain behaviours that you might see in your boy too.
If you decide to go ahead, please let us know what you find Smile

When he bites too hard it squeeks. And he drops it. Lets see how long it lasts 😂

Haha, so you don't use squeakers then? This guy's so incredibly clingy to me. I'm never sleeping or chilling on the couch alone again. But he's so rough with strange dogs. Also he's very mouthy when playing. Kinda hurts. Other than that, he behaves okay on walks. Pulls like crazy though at times. Also pulls towards strangers when very close. Once lunged at a guy walking agressively straight for us. (Which I cant really blame him for). Usually in for a quick pet when approach is normal. He's okay around food, but don't leave it in reach. When you're eating, not really annoying when clear that he needs to ignore it or go away.

Alright sorry for rambling. Here's my current situation.
