Comment to 'DOSA ( KOREAN MASTIFF)'
  • The earlier versions of the Dosa appear to be a much healthier animal. In construction it could be be best described as a very smooth, deep rich red velvet coated dog looking alot like a tosa neo cross , the dog had nice high hips and muscular limbs denoting speed and power. However the current dosas that I have seen look very much like a different animal. Grosly disproportioned bodies with weak legs and hips and almost mutant like faces. Keep in mind that the Korean pronounciation for tosa is dosa. There are two varieties, the mee kyun dosa which we have been discussing, and the thoo kyun dosa which is more or less a tosa and is without question a performance animal. The red dragon site has some nice pics of some older dosas that look pretty good however, I dont know if they still breed the earlier style dogs or not, if in fact the dosas that caught so many peoples attention with bright shiny coats and healthy strong bodies are in fact gone only to be replaced by these new genetic accidents, well thats truly a sad thing, the older style breeders had a great looking new breed in there hands.
