The Dogo Argentino, due to its muscular body and strength, has been used as a guard dog, defense dog and above all as a hunting dog. He is an agile furry that whenever he feels that his life or that of his loved ones is threatened, he will defend it.
Unfortunately, these are qualities that have made it a very beloved breed by those who are dedicated to making money from dog fighting, when in reality it is a peaceful, furry character who enjoys being with his family. Let us know how is the Dogo Argentino.
Physical characteristics of the Dogo Argentino
The Dogo Argentino is a large dog, which can weigh 40 to 45kg, with height at the withers from 60 to 65cm. His body is robust, muscular, and is protected with a short white coat of hair.. The head is well proportioned to the rest of the body, and it has an elongated muzzle. His ears are often cut off, a practice that is beginning to be prohibited in several countries, such as Spain.
Because of this, the best we can do is let it grow as it should 🙂.
Character and personality
It is a very active dog. You need to exercise every day to be able to lead a happy life, otherwise you will quickly get bored and could wreak havoc at home and garden if we had it. Only if we provide the care it requires, that is, only if we give it food and drink, a bed to sleep in, love, company and many games to keep it active, will we enjoy the true Dogo Argentino.
It is a furry that gets along well with all family memberseven with children if you socialize at an early age with them. What's more, he is very affectionate and faithful.
