What breed of dog is similar to a Pitbull but a small version?

I am looking for a type of dog that looks like a pitbull and is adorable but it must be 12 pounds or less. Pictures would be great too!

There is no bully breed that small.

Look into Patterdale terriers. But you really have to do a lot of research, these are tough little terriers with lots of energy.

i agree with the 2nd answer, the Patterdale Terrier definatly resembles a Pitbull in looks and weighs around 11-13 lbs this is a very independent dog and requires a very experianced owner. as the 2nd answer said, they are fearless and tough and require alot of training.if you do end up getting one, sign up for obedience training before you even get the dog so you know you'll be able to start right away. http://www.dogs.co.uk/content/doggallery/ozzie.jpghttp://lostlakefarm.com/images/DSC00386.JPG

I'd agree with a Patterdale Terrier. One of the ones I know even plays with my Greyhound. It's an excellent little dog full of friendly spirit and determination. It understands what playing is and doesn't mind being pinned by the bigger dog and then works out its own strategy to tire the Greyhound out. Just a lovely confident little dog.

you can probably find a cute little mutt on petfinder.com

the closest you're going to get is a smaller terrier... APBT are terriers.

A patterdale, or possibly a jack russell.
