Argentine Dogo
Like many dogs, the Argentine Dogo combines the ideal characteristics of other different breeds. This dog, however, is the product of ten separate breeds. Developed in the 1920’s by two Argentinean brothers, this powerful intelligent and courageous dog became a valued hunter of board, puma and jaguar.
Today, the Argentine Dogo demonstrated its exceptional working capabilities in a wide variety of tasks, from search and rescue to Schutzhund to guardian. Friendly, outgoing and affectionate, the Dogo also makes a fine companion.
