Hi! I'm not sure I can express my thoughts about this in english, but I'll try.. Since I'm not very familiar with the American Cane I can't see the differences or similarities, but I can tell you about the Corsos I have.

Today, the concept of preventive medicine would be laughable if it wasn’t so tragically misguided. Most vets today believe dogs need the following to be healthy: Major surgery to remove their reproductive organs (and the important hormones they control) Vaccines (with ingredients like thimerosal, aluminum, MSG, formaldehyde and foreign animal protein)...

The line got started back in the 1930's in Michigan and is named after a dog Ch.Ruffian who was produced by a Plymouth breeder Floyd Klump but owned by someone else whose name escapes me at the moment. The initial use of Weimaraner blood to produce one of Ch.Ruffian's parents (can't remember whether his dam Dina or his sire Deuce was supposedly 50%...

Sometimes I get asked about the color of a Caucasian puppy and what they may look like when they grow up. Generally speaking, the color does change some and here is an example with Nayan.  

Hi Andreas, This is a very nice article. I take it that you remember our own article about the Alaunt which can be found at this link http://molosserdogs.com/m/articles/view/3065-alaunt It is impossible to write without bias as the words we chose are done to convey our point and will always have bias. Knowing that I understand that you have tried to be...

My wife and I just recently (2 months ago) purchased a 62.5% boerboel, 12.5% kangal, 12.5% dogo argenino, 12.5% great Dane from Andrew Johnston of olympicdogs.net. He is currently 5 months old and 75 lbs as of yesterday before breakfast. He is best of friends with our 10 pound terrier and loves kids. Just wondering if there are any other owners of a...

Good post, more perspective is always welcome. Plus, I always love seeing that Neo statue. [quote1320542476=Astibus] In Shars, mastiff blood does not have a positive result. It changes the dog to its core. In recent years, people presumably do it anyway for fighting purposes, but that ain't a Shar anymore. And it shows. [/quote1320542476] The reason...

The word "Shikari' means hunter, so a "shikari kutta" or shikari dog can also be used as a generic term for a hunting dog or hound. Indeed when people from Punjab see pics of my Caravan hound they refer to him as "shikari kutta" and he isnt a boar hound but a pure sighthound, they consider all sighthounds to be shikari kuttas...

Hmm wolfie, the good presa is maybe hard to find in the uk, but thats also where the very best ones are. Theres a lot of crap everywhere but if you want a real deal hardcore working presa, then the uk is the place to look. If anything, you may not qualify to get one of the real ones because it is really hard to obtain a presa from top working security...

That is indeed a good question. There are just way too many variables to give a clear answer unless we just say the strongest period regardless of size. If that is the case then I would go with the English Mastiff for sheer strength. Not considering stamina, agility, or athleticism. Enter the CO, Kangal, CAO, Bull Mastiff - and the field gets pretty...

Interesting photos. How does the Bullmastiff perform in the Brazilian heat? I have friends in Recife where it's 80s year round and very few Molossers survive there. I do know that some Brazilian Police like the Tropa de Elite take pride in their working Filas that look like giant bloodhounds that are used to hunt and sometimes kill fugitives in the jungle.

I just went back and read this entire topic again. What a great gem it turned out to be. I looked around the social sites for some good content regarding dogs but it is very hard to find anything of substance anymore. Some breed specific websites do still have great content and I will feature some of them in another post. If you find a wonderful article...

Well then some of the best bandogs in the country that are being produced by Am Bully foundation didn't happen, lol. I agree most are ridiculous, but I know a few lines that have stayed the course from their original purpose. I have worked some personally. I have also heard some remarkable anecdotes about their feats. IMO, these are Am Bullies, not those...

I mis spoke. The manson family guys are presa x ab, I believe. I only follow 2 bandogger's programs anymore, so I am out of the loop on most.

PetFooled "When I was a child in the 1960's there was about 11% of our human population that had a chronic illness.Today, 2022, over 58% of us have a chronic illness, and not surprisingly, this trend is the same with our dogs. After all, dogs live in our homes, so the choices we make for ourselves we often times make for our dogs.The REAL problem I...

Several years ago there was a poster I think was called bigdogs. He had published a book on large dogs. I looked on amazon and book stores and haven't seen it. Does anyone know of this book?
