I have Dogo Argentina named Zion Came.
Not a breed for everyone especially if you get them from a good line.
I had my doubts about a white coated bully type breed. Had friends with American bulldogs and English bulldogs and the light coat for some reason made them sun and food sensitivity.
This is a hard breed. Can take heat and bad terrain and is just sturdy AF! Loves to be outside more than inside in the AC.
Took him hog hunting once and wow!!! Couldn’t really appreciate the power of these dogs till you see it up close

My boy Link. He's a 2 year old German Shepherd/Yellow Lab mix. Rescue from a puppy mill in Mississippi and still has serious trust issues with strangers.

It's pretty hard to get him to socialize during Covid. I was taking him to a dog park, leashed, before that to get him acquainted with other people and dogs. In public he still jumps on anyone if they don't immediately pet him. At home he gets insanely protective of me whenever anyone comes over.That's a great mix aside from the impending hip dysplasia. Anything you're doing to proactively ameliorate the trust issue? That's a tricky one from a training perspective.
How old was he when you got him? Good on you for rescuing him, he's a handsome fella. Good luck with his training.It's pretty hard to get him to socialize during Covid.

American Bullies for me.
4 monthsHow old was he when you got him? Good on you for rescuing him, he's a handsome fella. Good luck with his training.
He's fine in public if he's leashed. At home if friends come over he jumps on people and is mostly playful, with tons of energy. He's still very much a puppy. But if they come near me he gets aggressive and agitated. I've had a bunch of people doing work remodeling our house over the past month and I've had to crate him. He will even "get down Mr. President" me if my old lady tries any kind of PDA, to the point of sitting on me and barking at her. He's never bitten anyone yet, thankfully, outside of "play-biting" with me.How does he act wth strangers?. if u dont mind
Probably want to do some counter conditioning with him, to alleviate the resource guarding... Lest it get worse.4 months
