I have seen many on this sub! They are two of the most common dogs seen in mixes. https://embarkvet.com/resources/most-common-dog-breed-ancestry/

I just haven’t seen many that were just the two. I have seen many that had both and a bit more mixed in. And I definitely didn’t expect my girl to only have chow and pit/staffie.

I can see the Chow in her face! The kind of loose cheeks

u/ZeroDudeMan 4h ago

Pitbull genes are strong.

I definitely see the cat-like paws of the Chow.

She doesn’t have any other mixes in there? She’s so scruffy! I love it!

u/karmacuda 2h ago

u/crazycalicos 2h ago

I kinda figured husky with the eyes. What a funny mix! I love her!

❤️ I have now! Mina looks like such a cuddlebug!

u/crazycalicos 5h ago

Ha! Only if she likes you. She was chunked out of a moving car when she was about seven months old. She absolutely does not do strangers. She loves our little family bubble and that’s it. She has to be put up for company. And who can blame her. Humans can seriously suck.

That's exactly how my pit/chow/golden/etc mix is. He was a stray at 7 weeks

5

u/crazycalicos 5h ago

Definitely chow characteristics. I’m a dog groomer and there are very few of us that will groom them.

u/lookaway123 5h ago

That poor, sweet girl. She's so strong and brave to be able to trust and love you. Thank you for showing her that humans can be kind.

u/crazycalicos 5h ago

We have three rescues from pretty horrible pasts. We are lucky they gave us the chance to show them a different world.

u/jackieO2023 37m ago

We had a Chow, probably a mix, who was similar to that. Poor baby!! So glad you have her now!! ❤️

I wonder why his tail was docked? Docking isn't standard for any of those breeds.

23

u/crazycalicos 6h ago

Her tail isn’t docked. It’s just wagging in the picture 😊

6

u/CastleMilk_ 6h ago

Great to hear! XD Yeah, catching it mid-wag like that definitely made me think that it was docked long.

u/Nymeria2018 6h ago

While this dog doesn’t have a docked tail, many APBT and AmStaffs have docked tails and clipped ears, regardless of if it is standard or not.

u/CastleMilk_ 6h ago

I own a pit myself, so I definitely knew about the cropped ears. Although dog fighters (Or just morons who want to make their pits "look tough") docking tails is news to me.
