the reason i'm asking is because i picked up a couple of them from seatak airport this weekend,...  cool looking pups,  the male looks like he'll be huge. he is 9 weeks old and his paws are almost the size of my palms.  the female i 8 weeks old, but she looks like she'll be alot smaller.  very playful puppies,.. and they were fully kennel trained too.  they're not my pups though.  i was picking them up for a buddy of mine,.. i prefer to know every detail about a breed before i get it for myself.
they look like pitbulls,  but aparently they grow alot bigger and wider than pits.

well first it helps to know if they are dogo's or presa two different breeds  :chuckle: and yes estate sized guard dogs so think big 100lbs plus from what little I know they are a bit harder than mastiffs as far as their tolerance of other dogs and animals, they can be aggressive its as always in the training and breeding.  Both breeds have been used for fighting in this country so keep that in mind they are not common and will be tossed in with the whole pitbull generalization  :dunno: check out the UKC website they have some info and resources...
