    This is multiple European Champion Demon Desperado and his littermate Dakata doing a courage test in Serbia. Demon is EGP Keno El Guerrero sire. There are more than 15 Champions in Keno pedigree including some World Champions. Even though a Presa has become a show champion it is still a working dog. The Perro De Presa Canario is bred to be a working dog. Most do not do catch work anymore as the need for that job is not need as much. There are a few still doing catch work. The secondary job for the presa is to protect the farm and family. They still excel in this area.

    I have seen Spanish Judge barely escape being bitten by some good presas. In AKC the dog would have been disqualified. But these judges know the breed and temperament. They don't disqualify them for doing their jobs.
