Default What is his breed?

Hay everyone!
about 8-9 months ago my sister gave me a puppy and she said her neighbor gave him to her. But she has five children and didn't want to have to deal with a puppy. So anyway, her neighbor said he was a australian shepard mix...and he is in noway anything like a australian shepard...
I'll put some pics of him on for you all.
oh, and I found a picture on photo bucket of a dog that looks almost identical....
Any help or guesses would be awesome! Thank you!

Heres the link to the other dog look alike. -

Looks to me like a staffordshire bull terrier.

Really?! The tan dog in the last picture was a pitbull/lab mix. They didn't look alike to me...my brother in law said he looked pit mix to him too. Thats pretty interesting. Also, the other dog was more agressive and stronger. Ru is weak and very gentle. Sweetest dog i've ever had. But that might not mean anything? Each dog has a different personality?

He also has the same length/texture fur everywhere but the his back. On his back he has long, thicker, courser black hair going from his neck to tail. I thought that was odd.

Thank you guys for your input! :]

many many pit bulls are laid back. Your dogs have different personalities is all.

I think the two look VERY alike personally.

No mix breed dog, no mater if they are mixed with the same breeds will EVER look the same. So yes, I think he is a Pit bull /Lab mix. He looks is A LOT. And Pit bulls also have gentle personalities, so they way he acts could be from the pit and lab both. He is VERY pretty!
