could you post some more pictures, preferrably of him standing up? it looks like a bullterrier mix, or maybe even a purebred by the shape of the face and the head, maybe around 3-4 months take or give. it could be a mix because he looks a bit tall for a bullterrier, maye he is just skinny. how is he doing so far?

Maybe a bullterrier and some Hound in there somewhere?
He looked kind of whippet ish or grayhoundish at first too.

He's cute! What else matters!!! Lol

sorry the las picture wasn't loading, i jsut saw it, he has a bullterrier in him for sure due to his bone structure (no whippet there) and it's really hard to tell what the other half is, and looks like he might even be closer to 5 months old, but it is hard to tel what he is mixed with

This little guy is very thin and looks like tummy is extended. Worms may be present.

This baby should probably see a vet. Are you planning on keeping him? I can try and help you get him to a rescue if you are not planning on keeping. I just want you to know that we are here to help if we can.

If you are in Spain, I would think Galgo, Ibizan or Podenco cross. Check this out--galgo espanol seems likely.

Bingo! Your right been to the vets today, & your right its a galgo

& the other "little" dog i rescued a few months ago is apparently a German Shepard/Mastiff mix

Good thing i got a LOT of room.

So glad you picked up this puppy. I see bullterrier and jack russell terrier. I wouldn't rule out greyhound either.
