[quote=Rodja]with everything u have named that you want I think BoerBoel is probably the best breed for you. Big enough to scare a person, will defend , great with kids, not hyper, can stand heat all in all what u looking for. :D[/quote] Do they do well in not so big places and are better with other dogs than the dogo and the presa? I like the boerboels dogs, because thet are very muscular and had a square body and for what i read thgey are not so dominant as the presas. never has seen one in person, but would love to see one. Thanks
