Dogo Argentino
Mountain West Dog Fanciers
A Guide to all things "DOG" in the Western Mountain States
           
Basic Description: As in all the canine breeds, and more so because the Dogo Argentino was bred for hunting big game; a few years ago some
discrepancies arose among show judges as to it’s physical specifications. The creators stated that the correct Dogo temperament should reflect
their rare contrast between extraordinary courage and incredible kindness of character. The creators went on to say, “The Dogo is the most docile
and mild of the hunting dogs and without a doubt, not even lap dogs have the kindness and patience to withstand the teasing that he can take from
children.” They outlined the standard below so that there will now be no possibilities of error in respect to the regulations by which the Dogo’s are
judged and the goal to which responsible and conscious breeders of the breed ought to aspire.
