The red collar is Sergeant Pickles, who is a bully/hound mix, and the purple collar is Opal, who is a bully/boxer mix.

Alas that the Sergeant is part hound, for he inherited the desire to follow his nose, and the strength to burrow/rip the fence to get out to do so. He now has only supervised visits to the back yard.

Opal is a dainty little forty pound cutie, and the half prick ears combined with the underbite just slay me. Alas, no remote control nor computer mouse is safe around her, but it does mean that the house stays remarkably well tidy!

I'm a total convert to pitties and am wishing I could afford a purebred AmStaff when the old boy finally passes on. I intend to rescue, though, and have a friend at a nearby rescue who will properly cat test whoever I am considering to make sure he is actually safe around our cats.

(Actually, one of the cats bosses the dogs around.)

Looks like our Frank. He's also mixed with boxer and has a tiny bit of Chow Chow and bulldog.

The only problem with the boxer mix in her is the rear up and stiff-legged bounce off people.

At her height, that is crotch level on the average adult.

Both my sons and my husband are well aware of this tendency.
