Where is there more info, on these dogs? Health issues? A Breed Club in the making. owners who have these dogs etc. This dog reminds me of the way the Neopolitan Mastiff, used to look like. A really nice looking dog. Thanks! :)

Why pay a lot for a mutt, when there are breeds like the Dogo Canario, Cane Corso... that have similar origins ?

As all Bandogs go if one is looking for "working" characteristics at a certain level. Thats why people cross -breed in the first place, to get what they are looking for in a dog. High prey drive for protection. for instance. The Bullmastiff one of the most well known Bandogs.May no longer have any of this ability, since being bred for show nowadays. This has been discussed on this site as well. I haven't met any of these dogs since very few people are breeding them. Those other breeds would work out quite well, depending on the line they came from to the individual dog. But being human. We can't leave well enough alone. Everbody is trying to create their vision of the "ideal working dog". If the animal can do the job and you do your research. Why not get one. I think they they look great to. As Bandogs go.

[quote=johan]Why pay a lot for a mutt, when there are breeds like the Dogo Canario, Cane Corso... that have similar origins ?[/quote] No doubt the AmBullNeo has a lot going on, and could potentially be no better than a mutt. I won't make any judgement on whether it is or not, but it appears the breeders are at least breeding for utilitarian purposes. The Cane Corso is largely a designer dog, and the Presa is a far cry from what it used to be. The Presa basically satisfies the desires of the buyer who can't decide betwee an AmStaff and a Rottweiler.

[blockquote]The Cane Corso is largely a designer dog, and the Presa is a far cry from what it used to be. [/blockquote] Nothing is like it used to be. In this increasingly urbanized world, the old lines of these dogs would be hard to keep as a pet. Still most of these Molossers are more dog then some of us could use. With these animals, it takes expert hands like many people on this forum. With all the BSL and lawyer friendly society. It seems to be getting harder to even to keep these breeds around.

personally i like the neo bandog...from a working stand point...its got good guardian traits from the neo...athletisism of the bull ab or pit...and far less health issues that a standard neo may have...i love the neo...i've done PP with mine...but my female wasn't typical...i feel i just got lucky there...cuz how neo's in general are being bred these days is creating a wreck out of them...but like i've said before...there is working neos out there...hard to find and it'll cost you plenty to get one...and still run a higher risk the prominent genetic issues facing the neo may happen in that dog...and a bandog is not a guarentee health wise(individual dog basis of course) but in general the bandog will be a much healthier, athletic animal far more capable & funtional for a working enviroment...i've seen some very impressive neo/bandogs being bred...and this is just my opinion...but a neo bandog put together right...has more of the "essence" of what a neo should be...probably was more like back in the day...than a standard AKC type neo you see of today... working people like what neo's can bring to the table...less the issues...thats why you see that so much...as far as PP guard dogs etc... a bandog is not for the inexperienced though...thats what i'd definately call and advanced handling dog...dominant, stong with capabilities that if you don't know what your doing very well may result in misfortune...similar to putting a AK 47 in someones hands that has never shot a gun before...in general...not a good idea...

Joe Blow Yuppte wouildn't find the rustic breeds appealing. Look what they have done to the Labador and Golden Retriever! :wink:
