Default Dog Experts - What is my dog?

To me he looks like a cross, Bulldog, Pitbull and Dogue de Bordeaux. Someone in the pub said he thought he was a recognised breed, but I can't find a thing. Anyone?

I'll go with the 95% boxer, the first pic that head is 100% boxer but if it is 100% boxer its overweight and Ive never seen a black boxer before so chances are its crossed with something else like a mastiff or something or other.

very nice though

Yeah, I don't really care what he is, he's just a great dog. He's had a pretty rough start to life - he's two - so is a bit nervous at the moment. I don't think he's overweight as he's as solid as a rock. Visit to the Vet in a couple of days, I'll let him settle in a bit first as I'm told Vet's are just about the only thing he doesn't like.

Thanks for the comments everyone.

there is a lot of Boxer going on there and do see a bit Dogue de Bordeaux / Mastiff in the mix.
The body up to the neck does look Boxerish and as such could be a bit overweight. Keep an eye on the weight issue as the breeds mentioned in the mix there are all prone to heart murmers and and excess weight can put a bit strain on the heart.

Can't offer anymore input than has already been given Jack - lovely dog whatever he is.

Tiggs - love the English bull Terrier - fantastic dog.
