Thanks for the advice! That's actually how we ended up finding our last family addition. She was listed as an Australian cattle dog basset hound mix. However, even she ended up being about 15% pit bull after dna testing (dunno if those are 100% accurate, but the vet agrees she has some pit). Luckily we don't have an interest in a puppy, so we don't plan on going to a breeder. We are thinking about looking at retired working dogs or even a senior for our next.
