American Neo Bull pics

Was just curious if anyone has any pics of their Neo to share or has any info where I can find some of an adult. Trying to get a gauge of about how big our boy will get and what he might look like as an adult. I have looked around on the net and haven't been able to really locate any. Thanks :)

To be honest I had to look up what an Am Neo Bull was when you first came on here. I didn't know breeders were creating this boutique designer breed. Usually a Neo-Bull/APBT would be an accidental breeding as far as I knew.
I'm sure your breeder would be able to fill you in on what you can expect. Or you could Google it, like I did, and see what people are getting. Because you can't gauge a pure bred Neo to see how yours will look, or a Bullmastiff for that matter. A crossing of the two different Mastiffs throws a pure breeding weight, size, and temperament out the window. Add the APBT to the mix and, well, getting pictures of a Neo would give you nothing for an idea as to how it might end up looking.

And I'm sorry if I come across as being cross, I'm not meaning to. Your pup is a mix, and it will take around 12-18 months for you, and hopefully us, to see how it looks like. :)

If I would venture a guess it will be large, muscular and lovable.

AKBull, I think the Am is for American Bulldog crossed with a Neo or at least that is what the searches I pulled up said.

One rule of thumb is to take the parents weight and then divide somewhere in the middle. It isn't 100 percent but it can give you an idea, so if the dad was an Am Bull at about 120 pounds, and the female was a Neo of about a 140 pounds, then you could guess your dog would end up at about 130 or so. Although he may be smaller or even larger. Usually the size of the parents will determine the size of the puppies so if you have fairly small parents, 60 for the Am and 120 for the Neo, I would say that your pup wouldn't be much larger than 100 pounds, give or take a few pounds.

It definitely isn't an exact science and with mix breeds, you just have to sit and wait to find out. Is he from a cross breeding or did the breed breed two Am Neo Bull's together? If it is the latter, ask the breeder what the parents are and you will get a better idea of where your pup will end up.

As for pictures, outside of puppy photos, this was the only other one I could find http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/a/americanneobull.htm.
 
Exactly what AKBull said... Also was confused when you mentioned this mix when you joined and said you didn't see it listed on this forum as a breed :confused: I referred to the same site that NM did.

I also gather that it's supposed to be an American Bulldog/Neo not APBT but how can you ever really know or confirm what people are doing when they endeavor to "design" a breed.

He's really cute and should be a great looking, big boy...don't see how he could miss, but it's a wait and see IMO.
