My girlfriend and I recently adopted a gorgeous puppy that we've named Hayden. The problem is we aren't sure what he is exactly. We got him from a family that had found him abandoned and starving, and nursed him to health. They couldn't keep him because of their landlord, we were just lucky enough to find them. They thought he was a lab/pit mix, I'm pretty sure that hes a lab/boxer mix. Any thoughts would be appreciated! Thanks

That's definitely a boxer-- I don't see any pit in him at all. He's a good looking boy. You're right; you're lucky to have found the people who found him.

Def a boxer. My female has flashy markings (The white) similar to that.

I really dont see any lab though. But Def a boxer mix.

I agree with everyone else--looks like pure boxer to me too. Had a purebred boxer many years ago--called him Luke---dog before him was a mix and he was called Zeke ('seek and look') And I agree also that you are lucky to get such a 'fine' dog in the way that you did! Happy for you--and the dog!

I dont think he's a pure boxer by any means. If he is than he was from VERY bad breeding. But he is a mix def.

Im on another forum thats for boxer's only. Its boxercrazy.org We would love to have you post there too!

I don't know what he is, but he is very cute!

He looks like a pure boxer to me.

What a precious dog.....you found yourself a real treasure

Thanks for all of your input!

I really don't think hes a pure boxer, I know its hard to see from the pictures I posted but hes does not have the nose or mouth of a boxer at all. maybe these will help...

Either way I'm happy I found this forum, as this is our first dog any information is helpful and Ive found plenty here. Thanks again!

After seeing those last 2 pics---I've changed my mind--you are right--he is a mix--now I'm probably almost as curious as you are but it is part boxer I am pretty sure of that----No matter, he looks like a 'cool' dog anyway and it would be nice to know what else he is for health reasons, etc. And being a mix--he is probably healthier! But you will love the 'guy' no matter what he is!

One more thing, lol ! I can remember w/the boxer I had---at least w/out a boxer face--you will not get all that slobber they can fling when they shake their head!

After seeing those pics I agree he is a mix.

But definately boxer.

Maybe boxer/lab mix

Or could he have some Aussie or Collie in him (His side profile reminds me of some Aussie mixes I've seen and Some border collie mixes I've seen)

Just a thought

Still beautiful dog
