Got told on today's walk how adorable Slayer was by a man walking a little poodle mix. Slayer was pretty tired so she was nice and calm so we talked for a few minutes. He asked what breed she was..and I told him a pit bull mix. He looked at me and laughed and said there wasn't an ounce of pit bull in her and she looks like his brothers Lab mix..... o.O then he told me pit's are a lot heavier and bigger then she is.
Honestly..THIS face is a lab??

That face is cute!

[bestformaldress23]

We all know she is at least either part or whole (badly bred) Pit Bull. It's just the people who see Am Bullies every day and wouldn't know an APBT or APBT mix if it licked their faces that don't get it.

Yup, I get told ALL the time that Ruger isn't an APBT because he's too small lol People are stupid... but we knew that

By the way... Slayer is ​adorable!

You'll always hear this rubbish, trust me I use to think it would minimize, but it just doesn't. People will always believe pitbulls are suppose to look more like ambully's. Unless you happen to have a miracle one day and do come across someone with a brain indeed it's always "to small" or "to thin" or ajdfjadhfasjkd to be a PITBULL

Slayer is such a beautiful girl.

everyone knows that it isnt a pitbull unless they are carrying a dead baby around in its mouth....DUH

This reminds me of a time I was sitting with Bindah when she was a little puppy on the tailgate of my truck in the parking lot of Wal Mart. I was annoyed over something as it was, and when a woman started to walk by and literally yanked her small child off her feet to swing her about the other side of her away from us, I smiled and said, "Don't worry, she already ate a few babies this morning!" I know it was horrible for the breed image, but I was a pissy teenager LOL

I don't know what it is with people confusing Bull & Terrier type dogs with Lab all the time. I just can't figure it out.

[c2siOlIk]

I don't know about pet bred labs, but show bred labs have blocky heads...

That's the only association I can make with labs and people's view of "pit bulls" LOL

I don't know why I didn't stick with calling my dogs poodles... it was really entertaining!

Lol and that reminds me of the time I took Cleo to a new vet. When I walked in there were several dog owners sitting on one side of the waiting room, there was a lab, a Shepard, and what I think was some sort of adorable furry lap dog. Well when I went to the counter to check in, the receptionist asked what breed Cleo was. As soon as I said a pitbull and turned to sit with the others, they all got up and moved to the other side of the room. I felt so sorry for Cleo, cause as a puppy all she wanted to do was make a friend. Well mommy instincts kicked in and I was like "really? She's a real threat huh?" lol people are funny

[Deengealf]

LoL..yea I figured you all would get a laugh out of that. I don't know why some people see lab..lol. I sure don't see it.
Man people are so messed up..either they think ambully=pit bull... or they are scared to death of the dog for not good reason

[Kristoferson]

well according to the pizza guy, I have a boxer

[Poothevokprot]

Well, if you're more used to seeing Labs than pit bulls, I suppose it's an easy mistake to make. Most people around here think that if it's black, it's probably a Lab. My friend's Greyhound gets mistaken for a Lab all the time, lol.

I don't get it either. But you know people just don't know dog breeds like they think they do.

We were at an event this weekend and there was this beautiful Pit Bull mix up for adoption. Well this couple came up and started asking questions about him to the lady in charge. Is this a Pit Bull/Corgi mix. She was like No he is not. He is a pit bull/ boxer mix. They continued to argue that with those ears he had to mixed with Corgi. He had bat ears. I went on to explain that "Bat Ears" are common in the APBT breed. I also added that to me personally he looked like he wasn't mixed. He didn't look well bred but he didn't look mixed. However he did have a docked tail and I think that is where they (the rescue) were getting boxer mix. He was a pretty boy though and a real sweetheart. They passed on him though.

But the average joe off the street is really not that breed savy. They thought because he had "Bat Ears" that he was part Corgi. That dog was all APBT in my honest opinion. He might have been mixed but he could have fooled me.
