Hi everyone, I'm looking for a specific type of dog that I've never come across before. Based on my research, it's supposedly an American Pit Bull Terrier, 'black panther' type. I've attached some photos to show you what I mean.
Is that the correct name for the breed?
And where would I be able to get a dog like this?
Thanks in advance for the help..

Exactly, these kinds of threads are so annoying. It’s like a kid wanting an Action Man or something; honestly, grow up!
I’m only asking for some information, I don’t need any daft remarks. I think it’s a beautiful animal and I’m just doing a bit of research because, yes, I’d like to see if I can look into getting something I actually like the look of, even if I know there’s more to a pet than just its appearance. I don’t see what’s immature about that.
No, it’s a black Pit Bull with yellow eyes and cropped ears. But to reel in the suckers, they’ll call it a ‘black panther pitbull’ or ‘exotic panther’ – it’s just a look, really.
Hi,
Whether that dog is any kind of Pit Bull, it would be illegal here in the UK anyway. The 'Black Panther' doesn't have that build; it has a longer muzzle and a less massive skull...
Also, don't just go by looks—you have to take temperament into account as well.
The US constantly floods the market with new breeds and crosses based purely on physical appearance. These dogs have no real working purpose other than looking more 'hard' or impressive than the dog next door. As a fellow dog lover, I’d suggest choosing a recognised breed that is well-established and has a stable temperament as well as a consistent look.
Well, I just see an all-black dog with some visual effects to make it look more imposing. And if it's a Pit Bull, you'd have to move to the States to own one! 😁
