Ancestry.com Pet DNA test results day Ducky is:
- 53% Dalmatian
- 37% American Pit Bull
- 10% American Staffordshire Terrier
What do you think he is?
Here’s more info about him and some pictures! (For research… but also because he’s a cute boy!)
Always knew he was a Dalmatian Mix. I have a pure bred Dal too. I’m really surprised to see the other breeds, maybe to the point of skepticism. I don’t mind if he was a Pit or Staffy but I just don’t see it in him. Not in his looks or behavior.
He’s a natural hunting dog. Stalks his prey and waits for my mark before jumping. I never taught him that.
He’s always spying on the neighbors.
He doesn’t mind letting strangers or kids pet him. And he loves to cuddle with my nephew.
Or sit on my mom. He thinks he is funny.
And he loves to have chats but barking doesn’t come through pictures so well.

Dog?
That was going to be my guess, but I didn’t want to look dumb if I was wrong.
agreed
Definitely dog
Looks like 100% good boy to me
I’m glad he got it back. Terrible that someone would steal it from him.
I would say he’s definitely not a duck.
You’ll have to take that up with him. He chose his own name.
And it’s a damn good name.
100% good boy
Definitely a percentage of duck in there.
If it quacks like a duck….
I think he’s 100% handsome boy.
100% derp. Like all good doggos.
His face shape looks more like a lab than a pittie or staffy, but who knows? You could try getting a test from a second company. I’ve read that dog DNA test results tend to be inaccurate.
I thought about getting another, out of curiosity but tests are a bit expensive. I got this one free with a BarkBox.
Personally, I think he looks a bit like a Dal/Blue Heeler mix. That’s what I thought he was before the results because he looked so similar to others in the image search. He doesn’t have habits of a Heeler though.
I love him either way!
Yayyyy!! I got it right before I clicked into it!! 50%/Dalmatian and 50% some sort of pibbles!!
You’re the first one of anyone I know to guess right. Not me or my friends/family/neighbors guessed right!
Its the head and the eyes for me!! Head is a little wide at the top, the eyes, and i can see a bit pit in the smile :)
He reminds me a lot of my childhood dog, a Dalmatian and German Shorthaired Pointer cross. My old dog had the same fully black ears and did a very similar crouch/point when he was waiting for us to throw a tennis ball
I have a half sheepadoodle, half pitty/staffy.
The dna came back 25% of each.
My dogs head shape is virtually identical to yours.
That’s interesting! Thanks for sharing. I haven’t heard back from many others who did DNA tests too
what a great spotted boy.
I bet Ducky would love a duck or chicken toy.
What kind of dog is that? What kind of dog is that? Mm, that’s a good boy
