Pitbulls are banned in my state

They are beautiful dogs.My dog is about 8 mths old now is he at his full grown size ?
I thought pitbulls ears were like that because they were docked or something lol silly me.Why the hell are my dogs ears so big ??? even the staffy in him shouldnt make him have big ears.Strange i will put a pic of him when i install new software.

He will grow much much bigger. pitbulls are not supposed to have their ears or tails docked. Part of it is that his head will get larger and strech the base of his ear causing them to become erect. He will have his full muscle mass at around age 3, at age 1.5-2 he will reach the his top height. Do his ears go fold back or flop over like a rottweiler or lab? When I mean "go back" you can look at my dog to get an idea what I mean
Also, what staffordshire is in him? Is it stafforshire pit terrier or staffordshire terrier? If it is pit terrier I could see the cross creating long ears.

The breeder told me that he was half american staffordshire bull terrier and 1/2 pitbull.I dont really know the difference between the staffys as there are a few diff ones.Like the american ones seem to look bigger and stronger than the regular staffy terrier.

He weighs 44 pounds but shit why isnt he built like a brick shithouse like those dogs ?because i take him walking every day and play with balls at the park with him he gets alot of exercise maybe its just that he is still a puppy and growing into his skin.

So how much does yours weigh llama? (assuming yours is what you referred to in your first post about crossing for larger size compared to pure pit)

"those dogs" reffering to the pics? because he's a puppy, muscels develope during the dog's adolesence which happens from just before 2 years up untill 3.
