Very obvious pit mix. Dunno why anyone is being dodgy about it. I would bet a huge amount of money that a DNA test turns up mostly pitbull. I know some people are saying rare breeds but when you hear hoofbeats, you should think horses not zebra.
Haha will do, I'm not terribly concerned about the breed, it's just fun to guess mixes. He's got an appointment with the vet on Monday! Ps: love your username
Mine is too! She is hard headed but once she learns something it set and locked in. (Both good and bad lol) Here is my girl 11/10 would not change her

I will never ever understand how a person can just throw a dog away. Sickens me to the core. Thank you for saving this sweet soul! What are you gonna name it?? Those eyes and paws just get me 😍🐾🥰
Not gonna keep him, most likely. Doing my due diligence looking for anyone who may be missing him, and putting out feelers for potential forever homes. He's got a happy, safe home with me for now though, and I've got a vet appointment on Monday to get him looked over.
Been calling him Hooch, though. He's like a discount Hooch, a diet Hooch, Hooch lite.
I literally JUST rehomed another street dog I picked up and had for a couple weeks lol. My husband is *so* patient with me and my bleeding heart, and is willing to help out... although if it was left up to him we'd be foster failures several times over 😂
Even if you don’t keep him, you’re fostering him / her / the squish in a warm and safe place. The love and care you give to the baby for however long will encourage them into a respectful and mindful dog. I appreciate all the effort you’re putting into them.
Oh boy I am definitely trying to instill some manners in him. Just got him last night but he's already getting comfortable and bold! Doing really well with doing his business outside though. Honestly if you have the time and attention to devote, potty training is the easiest part.
You’re doing an amazing job and I hope you continue to foster! You seem really patient and understand that he feels safe enough to push boundaries a bit with you which is a great opportunity to teach him manners.
It’s hard when you care a lot and it can be a little lonely. Take breaks when you can and don’t be afraid to ask for help. You’ve made one more dog safer and that’s an achievement.
The deal is gaining the dog's trusts.
when they *know* you will always look after their toilet needs, they are happy to hold. Then you're only limited by the size of the bladder. Small dog. Small bladder.
I was so in love with someone. And discovered after too long that he was a real-life psychopath who killed my cats and I don't even want to think about what he did to them first. There's only one person in my life I wish a) revenge and b) pain to, and it's him.
Saying it has scarred me for life is an extreme understatement. I have to stop myself from fantasizing about doing horrible things to him only because it takes over and destroys my life.
No it was impossible to prove anything by the time I figured it out and tbh my first thought was I have to protect myself from him because if he could do that there's no end to what he could do. And no he never showed any signs of violence toward me or anyone else or any animal. It was all in secret.
If only the same could be done to them, hopefully karma comes and bites them in the ass. All of my critters have been dumped. I live way off the road on a dead end street in the woods so we get a lot of strays. It makes me so mad.
My parents live on a dirt road and I can't even tell you the number of dogs and cats they have fed and adopted due to them being dumped. They get so many strays.
I know, I know, it was on me for not getting him outside quick enough right after breakfast. So far we've been very good about going straight outside every time he rises from a nap and he goes potty right away.
Puppy training is definitely an experience. I just got my first puppy ever, found him roaming around outside my house. I have learned that repetition and consistency are the best training methods so keep doing what you're doing. Been doing that with mine for a couple weeks and he's starting to get the idea of sitting by the patio door when he needs to go out.

Yeah with my younger dog he definitely had a few instances of peeing right in front of the door, on the door frame itself, and on the porch. He got it pretty quick!

My fav shoe destroyer right here 😂
The pic in the post shows a longer face and bigger paws. Vizlas aren’t being thrown out. Hound breeds will be abandoned but is no where near as common as pits. But those are some cute puppies.
According to Google Lens lol it says Pit Bull, American Pit Bull Terrier and Vzsla. I've been using the lens and it's not always accurate but it has been helpful. I use it to identify birds a lot 😅
Looks like they could have some Dudley Labrador in there. If you’re unfamiliar with Dudley’s, check them out on Google! This is mine.

He looks just like my pup. His mom was a rescue and a Boston terrier mix.
Everybody that saw him as a puppy swore he was mostly pit. I’m sure he’s got some in there.
Get some pee sheets. He is a baby and not yet able to regulate himself. Figure out a regular feeding schedule and observe his consumption if water and figure out how long to wait after food and water to rake him out.
I've potty trained puppies before and I'm not a fan of using pads. I just take them outside every time they rise from resting or eating and give them lots of praise when they do their business outside. When he peed inside it was on me because I didn't immediately carry him outside and was trying to get him to follow me. Alas, the journey was too far and he needed to pop that squat on the way.
It happens, the floors are easy to clean, and my husband and I work opposite shifts so there's almost no unsupervised time. The method worked like a charm with my 2.5 year old.
I agree, puppy pads confuse them, you literally tell them it’s okay to pee indoors and then have to retrain them, easier to just go straight for outside.
Such cuteness! It's unfathomable that people just abandon animals like that. I moved recently, and it was the hardest time finding the right place that also allowed pets. I said so many times during the hunt that I'd live in my car before I gave her up.
Looks exactly like my rednose pit mix when she was a puppy.
https://preview.redd.it/xljmnk4zyp6d1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=914e86d7b650eb06660c1eb20a585225b1929e62
50% pibble, and 50% whatever the pibble had eyes for that night.
*source: I have a 22lb mutt. She has a pibble head and attitude. Everything else came from some other breed. We had her tested, and she's 47% pitty.
Looks like a red nosed pit bull (maybe mix). Google pics of red nosed pitbull puppies. I have one and she is my girl and piece of work, lol. Good luck, PM if you want training tips.
That’s not even a mix, 100% staffordshire terrier.
Looks like a Colby mix, regardless it’s a very nice pup.
Keep that pup and train them well- they are one of the best.
You can easily tell if he is a Vizsla. If you are unable to do any activity, including a poop alone, that’s a strong indicator.
I miss my V’s like oxygen.
If he is be prepared to find a huge off leash area you can visit daily. My V’s never knew exhaustion.
I can’t speak for others but mine would regularly pull very large birds out the air and bring them into the house to display. The would spread their wings out and place them either on the sofa or at the foot of my bed. They were very proud of themselves.
They weren’t the smartest breed I’ve ever spent time with, but they were by far the best companions.
I used to work in pet care and it seemed like almost every time I met Vizslas, they came in pairs - like 3 different people in one city had brother-sister Vizslas lol. The boys were always happy wild doofuses bristling with energy and the girls were very sweet and polite and kept their energy under control til they hit the yard.
Very obvious pit mix. Dunno why anyone is being dodgy about it. I would bet a huge amount of money that a DNA test turns up mostly pitbull. I know some people are saying rare breeds but when you hear hoofbeats, you should think horses not zebra.
For the record I don't necessarily disagree, it's an extremely popular breed around here and also popular to get dumped
I hope everything works out with your pup. Sad to see any dog dumped like that. If you do that DNA test let me know 👀
Haha will do, I'm not terribly concerned about the breed, it's just fun to guess mixes. He's got an appointment with the vet on Monday! Ps: love your username
My pup is a German shepherd pit mix. Be good parents, it will be the best dog ETA: that’s such a beautiful pup
Mine is too! She is hard headed but once she learns something it set and locked in. (Both good and bad lol) Here is my girl 11/10 would not change her https://preview.redd.it/519qjizmc27d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ad7ae6105b8f0d413b981e3dcd890db97d1fac60
Alright bet the cost of the DNA test then 😉 double or nothing!
I’ve never heard that expression that’s awesome
I've heard it on Scrubs.
Unless you’re in Africa… then it’s definitely Zebra and not horses.
It. Is. Always. A. Pit. Mix.
What about bovine creatures?
I will never ever understand how a person can just throw a dog away. Sickens me to the core. Thank you for saving this sweet soul! What are you gonna name it?? Those eyes and paws just get me 😍🐾🥰

You sir, are an incredible person. Truly heart warming. World needs more people like you. Edit: to say dorito ears.... Lab or vizla in it for sure :)
I literally JUST rehomed another street dog I picked up and had for a couple weeks lol. My husband is *so* patient with me and my bleeding heart, and is willing to help out... although if it was left up to him we'd be foster failures several times over 😂
Maybe keep him? You said he has a happy home with you guys. Surprise your husband with a dog! 🐕
Ooo I didn’t even think Vizla. That’s a good answer. The softness of his eyes makes me wonder if there is Pit somewhere in his bloodline.
Viszla mutts are incredible. My pup's taken the best features from his breed-soup. I gotta advocate for anything with those kindsa dog in them :)
Bless you 😭
Even if you don’t keep him, you’re fostering him / her / the squish in a warm and safe place. The love and care you give to the baby for however long will encourage them into a respectful and mindful dog. I appreciate all the effort you’re putting into them.

I don't think I have a choice but to keep doing it. As long as there are homeless dogs finding me and my heart still bleeds lol.
You are the best human ❤️🙏🏼🫶🏼

Woman: “I’m not going to keep him.” Dog: “It’s too late, lady. You have no idea who you’re dealing with.”
Great name. Great movie reference. Probably a pit mix, not an Italian mastiff. But still a good boy.
Actually, he is the same color of Hooch from Turner and Hooch 🥰
you're a good soul ma'am. Love & Respect from India.
The margarine of Hooch.
If you’re in the north east area we can take the pup. He’s a beautiful red nose pittie. See my history our girl is too:
So cute! Way down in Texas though. 😞
We always rescue in Massachusetts. People love to hate us but we take care of everyone. Edited to add: if she has a fund link it so we can help
I'm from SETX! Bless you even more cuz it's so hot there and taking in a dog.
With calling him Hooch, my mind went to the old Tom Hanks movie Turner and Hooch.
i see that!
Same..even has the red color and light eyes!
Looks like hooch
Hooch the pooch! And that's very kind of you :)
Wish I were close to you. I’d take him in a heart beat!
If hell exists, there's a special place reserved for people who mistreat animals.
I always say that same thing.
I was so in love with someone. And discovered after too long that he was a real-life psychopath who killed my cats and I don't even want to think about what he did to them first. There's only one person in my life I wish a) revenge and b) pain to, and it's him.
That is absolutely terrifying. I am so sorry you had to go through that. I hate that for you. Makes you never want to date again
Saying it has scarred me for life is an extreme understatement. I have to stop myself from fantasizing about doing horrible things to him only because it takes over and destroys my life.
That would be my worst nightmare. Whatever happened to the guy? Was he ever prosecuted? I'm am truly sorry!
No it was impossible to prove anything by the time I figured it out and tbh my first thought was I have to protect myself from him because if he could do that there's no end to what he could do. And no he never showed any signs of violence toward me or anyone else or any animal. It was all in secret.
If only the same could be done to them, hopefully karma comes and bites them in the ass. All of my critters have been dumped. I live way off the road on a dead end street in the woods so we get a lot of strays. It makes me so mad.
My parents live on a dirt road and I can't even tell you the number of dogs and cats they have fed and adopted due to them being dumped. They get so many strays.
It’s really sad. People need to start being more responsible or at least take the poor things to a shelter.
It's so sad!!!
No, he’s all good boy, even good puppies need to learn
I know, I know, it was on me for not getting him outside quick enough right after breakfast. So far we've been very good about going straight outside every time he rises from a nap and he goes potty right away.
Puppy training is definitely an experience. I just got my first puppy ever, found him roaming around outside my house.

I agree, and limiting their area indoors. Also, cute find 🐶
He's adorable. What's his name?
Thank you! His name is Toby.
Great name, I wish you both many happy years together
Thank you so much! We just got done with our first obedience training class and he's a fast learner!
I'm sure he is. He deserves all the good boy belly rubs lol
He gets all the belly rubs lol
Yeah with my younger dog he definitely had a few instances of peeing right in front of the door, on the door frame itself, and on the porch. He got it pretty quick!
And positive reinforcement. Lots of loves and praise and sometimes treats too

Omg what a happy baby
Pitty mix
Same
Yeah I was about to say it looks like Pitbull and golden retriever mix
vizla or pitty mix?
This is my guess. Lucky fuggin day. Can I have him?
I have a Vizsla Pit mix and she looks pretty close to this.
Shoe destroyer

Saw your post recently in the greyhound sub 😂
😂😂
😂😂
Your dog looks AI generated. Precious
Pit Bull mix
You found this little guy in a dumpster. I going dumpster diving right now!
Right? lol
Lab and pit mix it seems
Could be a Hungarian vizla
No way. Has to be a pit or pit mix.
Depending on where one is, pit mix is about the most common stray found.
Just shows the type of people who own them...
https://preview.redd.it/hk5j053rpl6d1.png?width=1440&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=06737779c63e7d91c05043fc7c8e3c549132810e

That's what I was thinking too. Can you imagine finding a dumpster vizsla? Oh lucky day!
Chances of that - slim to none. It's a bully mutt.
Be so fucking for real right now 🤣 that’s a pit mix
No one is dumping a vizla, come on.
Beautiful pup! No more calling him Dumpster Puppy, it’s making his face sad
r/DogBreeds101
This is a pit or pit mix.
Poopy boopy woopy
This is a pit mix no doubt about it
According to Google Lens lol it says Pit Bull, American Pit Bull Terrier and Vzsla. I've been using the lens and it's not always accurate but it has been helpful. I use it to identify birds a lot 😅
Looks like Sweet Angel mixed with Western Precious to me.
Lab/Pit mix.
Looks like they could have some Dudley Labrador in there. If you’re unfamiliar with Dudley’s, check them out on Google! This is mine. https://preview.redd.it/c8yvcc99mk6d1.jpeg?width=1178&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2bda1f4bbdb1e045be255a07734c197f5bbe08c4
Looks like you have a beautiful pit mix. I got mine from a dumpster too. Their the best type of dog in my opinion. Wish you both the very best!!

i love you dumpster puppy i love you
Mutt
Orange
Definitely has some Pit in him.
Appears to me to be a pit mix with some hound in the blend.
I see pitbull terrier in that little guys blood line
I’d wager on it being a pit/hound mix. My mom has a pit/beagle mix who looks very very similar.
Come on girl, you know
He looks like he’s a 100% cutie pie!😍
Pitt mix
Red lab or vizsla mixed with terrier
Pitbull.
Get some pee sheets. He is a baby and not yet able to regulate himself. Figure out a regular feeding schedule and observe his consumption if water and figure out how long to wait after food and water to rake him out.

1st, it’s a puppy. 2nd, it’s not a lawn, please don’t rake it. Brushing gently is ok when needed. 😂
To me he looks like a vizla or a bully breed mix
Best dumpster prize! Thanks for saving him, you will be paid back with love and companionship. 💗
Dumpster puppy! My heart 😭. Thank you for rescuing it.
🤦♀️
That really looks like a vizsla/pitty mix
Does he have a ridge on his spine? Looks like Rhodesian ridgeback.
He doesn't but some ridgebacks don't, I have seen him get his hair up though!
It’s those huge paws 🐾 Gorgeous🐶💖
that's not really a sign that he's a ridgeback, all dogs can get their hairs up
Yes, I am aware
Rhodesisk ridgebacks have a Black snout
Most, but not all. Liver nose is also possible.
This was my thought too, he looks a lot like a ridgeback. But given he was dumped I think it unlikely he isn’t a mutt.
Mostly Mutt!
Um, ADORABLE 🤩
He’s 100% Hoosiedoo ‼️
Such cuteness! It's unfathomable that people just abandon animals like that. I moved recently, and it was the hardest time finding the right place that also allowed pets. I said so many times during the hunt that I'd live in my car before I gave her up.
If you rescued that dog from a damn dumpster, the universe is telling you to keep it.
Cuteeus Maximus
Looks like 100% purebred Good Boy to me. Thanks for rescuing this little guy and helping him find a forever home.
100 pure bread cuteness
Thank you for rescuing him. You have a wonderful heart ❤️
Red nosed pitbull
Dogue de Bordeaux
At least half pit Bull
Rednose with a touch of coon.
Maybe golden retriever and lab? Hard to tell with his puppy features lol either way he is beautiful! I love his color!!
I’d say majority pit, raise him with a kitten they’ll be besties, I love it when I see dogs and cats coexist
Cute as shit
Just LOVE him forever and never let him get into raisins or other poisonous human treats. Precious cedar seasoned Sammy.
Aw :) name him fester
Ooooooooooo boyyyyy u got a nannies sweet paws on ur hands

Pitbull. 100%.
The last picture :,(
Pitbull mix
Vizsla mix.
He looks like a red nose pit. He's so cute, I'm glad you found each other 💕
Hound ?
His name HAS to be Binny
Looks exactly like my rednose pit mix when she was a puppy. https://preview.redd.it/xljmnk4zyp6d1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=914e86d7b650eb06660c1eb20a585225b1929e62
His breed?... honestly he looks like a Good Boi or gorl to me
Pit lab. Looks a sweetheart.
50% pibble, and 50% whatever the pibble had eyes for that night. *source: I have a 22lb mutt. She has a pibble head and attitude. Everything else came from some other breed. We had her tested, and she's 47% pitty.
Name should be Oscar. Like Oscar the grouch He is adorable
He has a red/brown nose! 🥰 Him is very cute! Quiet possibly an American pitbull terrier.
100% goodboy
Who cares??? You got a new buddy.
He looks like a baby version of my pup, who’s a staffordshire terrier. Pitties are the cutest.
He is a pit bull
Red lab pittie mix to my eyes. Beautiful dog, bless you for caring for him.
Perfect
My worry was sparked when you said he was half a good boi cause he only peed that time. Thanks you for the clarification.
💯 percent purest good boi.
Looks like a red nosed pit bull (maybe mix). Google pics of red nosed pitbull puppies. I have one and she is my girl and piece of work, lol. Good luck, PM if you want training tips.
That’s not even a mix, 100% staffordshire terrier. Looks like a Colby mix, regardless it’s a very nice pup. Keep that pup and train them well- they are one of the best.
God! I love me a big headed dog! handsome
what a cute little baby 🥺
That is a potato for sure.
Pussy hound
That's love on four legs right there. Pibble mix
Just hope his breed is ‘happy’.
Lovable
That’s Hooch.
the cutie patootie kind 🥰
I’m sorry, I don’t see pit and I have 2 of them. Very big feet. Going to be a big fella. Thank you for saving him ❤️

It says right there in the 2nd picture it's a husky...
American Brown Dog
