Stand on hind legs is not typical for CAO more like fits breeds such as boxer, dogo argentino, dogo kanario and etc... so I assumed that it`s a mix, it`s time to tell us we can speculate forever in this angle of the image :)

oké oké i will tell ... this dog is a Belgian draft mastiff.
it was used in the first world war to pull small machine guns and ammo.
but it's actualy a farm guard dog and draft dog.
this is a bi color version but it's not very common they are more known in a brown or fawn color
they start from 70-80 cm at the withers for males and 68-75 for females but as some of you noticed this dog was still young
they weigh in at 50kg for females and 60kg for males
the breed was recognized untill it went "extinct"
in belgium they still had some unregisterd dogs left and they are trying to revive it since the early 2000's
in 2010 it was approved as a revive project for the FCI
i will put up a picture of a more commonly known version.

I found information about the Belgian Draft Mastiff at this link. The info is passionately written by Jean-Marie Vanbutsele.
-
Look like a serious dogs.
It will be interesting to see current photos and video if there is... -
Ohw wow that breed looks awesome, but I always ask myself how you can revice a breed thats almost gone? (very small gene pool)
-
well i would like that information on the breed .. it's hard to find how they realy are trying to revive it ...
