Breaking News: There’s a brand new dog breed
This article says:
A woman had the clothes and flesh ripped from her body trying to stop a pit bull mastiff savaging her two-year-old niece.
I have heard of pit bulls and I have heard of bull mastiffs. I have never heard of a pit bull mastiff. Anyone out there confirmed this new breed? Or is it just hype in the media?

I’ll bet the reporter misheard something garbled, e.g., someone encounters a “massive” pit bull, or perhaps “pits” a bull mastiff against… whatever.

In a world of peekapoos, and our own beaglet anything’s possible 🙂

I’ve heard that breed mentioned several other times, but I’ve never believed it.

How about a bassetter?
BTW, it has been pointed out that the correct name for a pit bull / shih tzu cross is not what one might expect.
