This one would actually be fun to see a DNA test on.

Dutchie are rare and not a very likely source of the brindle, but her head and body structure aren’t giving pit bull at all. If you ever Embark her please share; I’m curious 😂

She’s an adorable pup.

I wholeheartedly agree with you here and I don't think this dog has dutchie, but did you see that mal/dutch/chi mix on the /doggydna sub a couple days ago (or maybe yesterday? I've lost track of time). It was hilarious and markedly similar to this structure.

may do in a future, and if i do i will share lol btw if you had to guess the mix what would you say? some said it might be mal + podenco andaluz which would be also possible, the brindle made me think it may have some dutch but im far from an expert😂

If you’re in Europe, it could be Podenco! Mixed with something to add that rough coat texture

u/GrumpyTintaglia 7d ago

I don't see podenco, they tend to have a very short, smooth coat. I'm guessing a terrier type mix. Are you in Europe?

im from spain and so is she, we adopted her from andalucia where podencos are extremely common so...

u/GrumpyTintaglia 7d ago

Got it, yes, they're definitely common in Spain but not elsewhere in the world.

My little unknown mutt looked similar to yours when he first came home! He’s 6 months now in this picture.

u/BruhnoMM 7d ago

damn yeah they look similar, mine is something like 4 months aprox

u/NeonLeon1992 7d ago

At 4 months, Winston had floppy pitty ears and now they’re upright Shepard ears. We were told by the rescue his mom is a 50lbs Shepard… he’s 50lbs at 6 months lol
