We wrote a lot, but texts about this race, and still many people who have not met with them just ask, '' Well what a race?'',  ''What are the kids? '' ''  Yes you can live in an apartment? '' Etc.., And so on. ..... ;Here is a brief  basic text link on the famous Dogo Argentina, without too much detail about the standard, hereditary diseases, the history and the like.

This is a race that falls in the second F.C.I. group, section Molossus. Tall, strong, inpulsivan dog, white fur. Designed for hunting big game, especially wild boar and puma, and today is usually just the family dog, guard houses and possessions, the official dog or even guide the blind. Was created by crossing 10 different breeds on the basis that he did Córdobese fighter. These are the following breeds: German event, bordoška events, bull terrier, boxer, pointer, Pyrenees Mastiff, English Bulldog, Spanish Mastiff, Irish Wolf Hound.

There are many problems that appear in the breed when breeding, but because these dogs are highly fertile, and was going to strike over ten litter of puppies. So serious breeders can still sort of so-called puppies. PET quality and exhibition quality, and, unfortunately, be those who must be removed (for egsample , deaf puppies). And about the deafness have already written in detail.

 

This is a dog who is very well adapted to all weather conditions and sudden changes of climate. In the summer months or warmer areas have thin hair, through which you provide subcutaneous pigment, and in winter, especially in cold-continental areas, gets very thick fur.

He needs a generous and serious nutrition during growth, particularly in terms of minerals and proteins, because as a large breed very fast growth in the first months of life, and as an adult dog it could be argued that it is not demanding at all.

In terms of training is very stable, but somewhat stubborn, so the basic obedience training or even those for service dogs (you can not pass without major problems), but will last at least twice longer than the average German Shepherd Training.

It is very tolerant towards children, as beings without status, according to their hierarchy, but the dog should be protected from undue annoyance by the children.

Provide the dog more opportunity to its explosive power and energy spent somewhere. Long walks,  running , the taste and the dog, but of course the owner.

As a member of the family he lives, this is a serious dog guard, wants to have everything under control and likes to sleep on a small elevated area, and usually not resting next to the foot of the owner, but with his head on them or in your lap. It is inconceivable to separate the breed of dog owners, because they suffer terribly, they become melancholic, and generally they find it hard to accept.

Once you see the Dogo Argentina to hunt or to attack another dog, you become clear that it is better that no matter how trained dogs have, never walk when it does not drop out of sight.

They are still made for all the cruelty of the Argentine pampas and hunting big game, without feeling pain, fear, fatigue and all that, not to say normal. It should never be forgotten.

This would briefly a summary of these dogs. Extract from the standard history and some basic characteristics of the breed. But why do they like us, when all over Europe, very little use for the purpose for which they were created. Why is there this great popularity in our region? But I have make a link to our previous text which is also wonder. Is it in us to the blood of our ancestors, who for centuries followed a molosoidni Dogs? Are we so fascinated by these dogs with their beauty and strength?  Is that what is implanted in the hearts of all family members is crucial?  Or the El Dogo Argentino is simply the best dog in the world? Who knows?
