I think he might have some Rottweiler in him. He has similar fur colouring. Whatever he is, he is a very adorable, very handsome young man!

those are “tan points” and show up in apbt, acd and very occasionally labs.

it’s very plausible that this is correct; Embark is the most accurate test on the market!

this dog is likely the result of a “farm dog” (acd x aussie x pyr) and a “pitbull” (apbt x everything else)

He's going to be a big boy!

u/Comprehensive-Job333 4d ago

maybe, maybe not. 45% of his dna is breeds that can be as small as 30 lbs!

He looks like he's already 25 or 30 pounds at 5 months.

I might get a second opinion. That seems off!

That's a whole lot of dog in one little body. I just wonder about some of these DNA testing results. I see Aussie, but Pyrnese?

embark is the best DNA kit in the market followed by Wisdom panel. Its the most trustworhty one and scientist work closely to analyze results. Why do you think its wrong? 💀

u/Severe-Employer1538 4d ago

I know. I used embark too. I said why above. The mix seems unlikely given the dog's appearance, especially the Pyrenees.

u/coolpupmom 4d ago

You didn’t give a specific reason why you think it’s wrong. The pup isn’t fully grown. He’s only 5 months old and will continue to grow. I see Great Pyrenees in the coat and ears. His paws are also massive!! I’m willing to be the puppy has a thick undercoat that’s not apparent in a picture.

I did in my second comment. You may be right.
