I have a shelter pet dog we adopted. I have absolutely no idea what she is in terms of the breed mix. My best guess is German Shepherd and some type of bull terrier. But everywhere I take her people keep asking me “is she part Pit Bull?”

I guess she has some physical resemblances to a Pit, but I honestly don’t know. She is such a sweetie it is really hard to imagine that she is. I would have no idea whether this law applies to me or not.

You can have your dog DNA tested to find out what the breeds are.

Same here. I rescued a pup from the local county shelter here in Oregon. He obviously has some Pit in him, but when he's alongside a purebred, one can readily tell that he's half of less because he's too small and though his head is shaped like the Pit, it's not massive enough.

I didn't "crossbreed" him. I guess were I living in Maryland, that the county would be liable for giving me this monster of sweetheart should he suddenly go completely out of character and get aggressive.
