Presa x staff

[Adrake88]

Never owned a mixed breed dog before and would like to no if any one with experience could tell me how big you think my pup will be when he's fully grown he is 17 week old and weighs 15.8kg he is lean and put on around 800g a week
Thanks

He's 6 week on 1st pic 10/11 week old on The other 2

that's his dad blue Irish staff and his sister.

A few more of my little man kano.

ADORABLE!!!

Size wise... hard to say, but maybe a little bigger than his dad?

 

[Adrake88]

this is a picture
Of him today and hes just weighed in at 38lb. He's very
Intelligent learned all the basic commands by 12 week and was fully house broken soon after can be a bit stubborn and hates being told off. And he's the youngest dog I have
Raised to cock his leg up and get frisky haha was dubious
About getting a mixed breed but he really seems so far
To show good characteristics from both parents. He is also at the moment dog friendly which is needed in the uk as
Bully breeds are often stereotyped and pre-judged.

Think ur gonnae have a chewin machine lol staffys love to chew ... Used to here people mention they had an Irish staffy as u'll see there always bigger but was a way round the American pit ban as many if the larger staffys were pit crossed my boys a pressa rottie cross at 8 months about 24" so I'd imagine ur boy about the20- 22" fully grown but who knows with genetics
Can imagine he'll get very wide and strong so be firm with the rules just now when he's growing and learning and be prepared for hair pulling my boy just ate my gearstick and chewed thru my seatbelt of my van grrrr the roaster lol

 

[Adrake88]

Yes you are right he's a chewing machine got loads of hard toys but still prefers the corners of the table. He is already
Very strong for his size with good jaw strength he's got a
Thing for white labels at the moment little bugger. I am
Really surprised at how quick he's learning I want him to be well behaved but to still have the confidence and drive to
Protect our property. Will this protective instinct develop
Naturally with our bond or will he need specialist training ?
He already barks when there's a noise outside or a nock at the door

 

[Lukasdad]

Take a browse through some of the other threads plenty of good info my boy didn't bark untill about the 6 month mark just takes time but once he starts u will constantly tell him to shut up lol so enjoy the peace just now my best advice is to socialise get all the family and friends to stick with the training as in staffys are murder for jumping up and mouthing that would be a good thing to chap on the head just now but best advice for u is to enjoy him as a pup and don't worry and fuss too much as all will eventually happen and take plenty of pics as the grow like wee mushrooms . It will be friends that dont see them often that will notice them getting bigger I was always thinking luka was too skinny too small too quiet etc worse than weans lol lol

 

[Adrake88]

Luka is a handsome lad got a look of George my cousins old english mastiff which is like a horse lol
Kano is well socialised borderline spoiled he likes playing
With other dogs mainly bitches he has a tendency to big up his chest and front around males lol he loves people and is very gentle around kids. I was sceptical about gettin a
Mixed breed because its abit like a lottery with a pedigree u can sort of know what to expect but the mrs fell
In love with him so we had to research 2 breeds .I have owned Rottweilers in the past and have been brought up with German shepherds and
Dalmatians. Dalmatians being the hardest breed I've
Worked with too clever for their own good lol

 

[Tosa]

Adorable pup!!! I have a Presa x Staff x Rottweiler x Tosa inu mix and it's also really hard to tell the exact adult size. My pup is 5 months now and she is 60 lbs. When we got her, she was 3 months old and 33 lbs. There were 8 more pups in the litter and every one of them was different size and colouring. It is something that i'm always talking about with others, how big will she be in a year or two, but it's also excited not to know - mixed breeds are like a kinder surprise!!

 

[Adrake88]

kano is now 22 week old and weighs 21 kilos he has put on a steady 900g-1.2 kg every week. He is just a bundle of energy. At the moment my partner and I have been having to assert our dominance on him, he has little bursts of giddiness and likes to test us but soon comes licking and giving puppy dog eyes once he knows his place haha he's like a kid with ADHD. Enjoying every minute of him !!!!

 

[Tosa]

wow! He's gonna be a very handsome boy!

 

[Adrake88]

Quick update and a few photos Kano is 8.5 months old and weighing in at 39kg he is fed on the raw prey diet and is a bundle of energy.
He is very confident and not dog aggressive although he
can get very vocal with us when we tell him off he Is a joy
To be around.
