He could be mixed, but just looking at him I’d say he definitely had PBT blood. His ears are not particularly long, they are the right set, and I don’t think he’s really large (hard to tell). The last is meaningless these days when people are talking about their 100-lb PBTs. There are many oversized 1s running around; not proper, but they’re there. Meanwhile, his head is the proper “apple” shape overall.

You are correct! The littlest members of that group, in fact.
