American bulldog or pit bull
I got this dog 2 weeks ago from a family that had to downsize. They didn't know if it was an American Bulldog or Pit bull. I am not sure either. He is 22 months old, 70 pounds with no fat on him, 23 inches high at the shoulders, has an under bite, great with our small dog and cat, loves the kids to death and has made himself right at home from the first day. I think he is an Am. Bull because of his head and mouth, droopy jowls and big head and his size. Let me know what you think. Thanks

I'm not the best person to answer this question but, if it were a bulldog, would the face not be more "pushed in"?

His nose is only 1 and 3/4- 2 inch long and with the standard AmBull they have a nose like his.

O.k. Thanks for the info. I've never had either breed so, I was just guessing. Also, it tends to be quiet in here on the weekends and, I didn't want you to think you were being ignored. I'll bow out of the guessing and wait for someone more knowledgeable to give it a try. Nice looking dog!!!

That would be the English Bull dog. The American Bull dog does not have the shorter snout.
