Okay. The Fila is out like I sated before. They are genetically supposed to not like humans other than their immediate family.

"The Fila is NOT a breed for the average pet owner. You need to know what the Fila Brasileiro is about and what it takes to own one. If you choose to raise your Fila using the methods that produce a dog who is "Ojeriza" to strangers (distrustful of), you must decide if your lifestyle will allow a protective breed that is anti-social with strangers and decide if you have the ability to control the dog. If you have a lot of friends and relatives coming in and out of your home you may want to consider another breed."

The cane corso must be out too as it must not be big enough. The cane corso and the presa or about the same size on average. Both get their eats cropped. The look a lot alike. The biggest exception is the corso also will get their tails docked.

COA? is this the same thing as a caucasian ovcharka? If so I love them too. But I like most dogs that are good protection dogs. But they have long hair. I met a AKC and UKC judge that told me that in dog shows they are taught not to even touch the dog. They are supposed to touch the dogs when they have them stand for an exam. it simulates what would e done if the dog is being examined by a vet. But because of the temperament they do not touch them so that they don;t risk getting bit. But I did see some very nice ones and those judges did touch the dogs. But i also some the temper in those dogs too, but as long as the owner corrected them quickly they were able to get the dogs back under control. The only reason I don;t own one is the long hair. Plus it gets rather hot and humid here. I don't want the dog to have to go through the rough summers here.
