Heya,

They are pretty dogs. Its wierd the lighter one looks like my black boxer/lab mix. What are yours??? The same? maybe Pit/lab mixes??

 

She's still young, and probably has some filling out to do. Usually their chest doesn't completely drop until they're around 2, and some continue to fill out until 3 yrs even. Keep any work you do with her light until around 18 months or so, then you can gradually increase the intensity of it.

Forgot to mention, some dogs do not ever develop wide chests. Genetics plays a strong role in how a dog develops, and there isn't much a person can do to change that. I wouldn't worry about it, the breed is supposed to be strong, but also agile, so those barrel chests you see some dogs with are incorrect. Your girl looks to be about the norm for correct APBTs.

 

Love the second pic
