Ensure you look into all the pros and cons of this breed, hell any guarding breed! I love Dogo's and when we are ready for a new pet this one tops the hubby's list but he knows the pros and cons and knows what it takes to own one, otherwise the dog becomes mine ;). I got to see a beautiful male at a show here about 5 years or so ago. He was stunning, and would have taken him in a heart beat. He wasn't being shown just there to watch while the female was shown who I was not a fan of, but the male apparently went back and forth hunting in the US.
I totally agree, been researching mastiffs for a year now. Which is not that long, but i think i got it down. I'd be waiting a bit for a solid litter, and i'm not 100% on a Dogo, i think they have a lot of drive, much more than the average mastiff. So i'd think they'd be fine with me.



Does anyone know of any lines that have tall dogo's, Fila4me, i know your first male was 281/2 inches at withers, that's the size i prefer. I know it's not common in the breed, but i'd like a agile dogo ( as the breed is totally known for ), but i'd like a dog with some size, maybe 110-130 pounds for a male, is that not common in the breed?

Here is our 5 and a half month old Dogo Argentino, Bain.

I read about the Dogo for a few years. The first time I saw one was on an episode of the Dog Whisperer. He is absolutely wonderful! He's very goofy, looking forward to seeing him grow up.

I honestly do not know of anyone one I would recommend with Dogos his size. He was a beast and one was never produced from that kennel of his size again. I will say, while he was still very agile, he could not compare to my regular sized boys and girls. 130#'s is on the heavier side, 110-120 is a good range and still extremely agile. my boy was out of la Chocha and Zulu lines.
