All those dogs average 100 to 200 lbs the CC being the smallest I believe. You are probably looking at 140lb mininum. Male Boerboels can get to 195+ if large, Bullmastiff 140ish, CC about 110/120, DDB 150ish PC about 135ish. The weights I posted are average male weights. Oddly the BB is the biggest. This is going to be one interesting dog. Can you share some pictures with us?

There's really no telling how large a dog will be. HOwever if you have background information on the parents and grandparents you can get an idea. Interesting cross though???

the only information i got was from what i saw when i picked him up the mother was only 10 months old and underweight so i could not see her full size as she was not mature and the father was a large healthy dog approxamatley180lb give or take 20lb the mother looked more of a cane corso and the farther looked more towards a boerboel

I think that once he gets around 7 or 8 months you will start to get an idea of size and he will start guarding on his own. Don't forget to socialize this dog or you will have issues. Get him to a puppy class or aqt least get him out in public. Socialiaztion does not stop the dogs instinct to guard and protect. But it gives you a more controllable dog in public situations. BTW looks pretty big in the pic (4 or 5 months?)

he is just under 6 months hes been around children dogs and anamils since the day i got him he is very frendly with everyone but he gets a little bit over excited but i gues thats to be expected with a pup he is currently around 70lb

I thought my DDB lacked guarding too. Until we were in the bed asleep and the hubby came in late. ;). It's there. You'll see
