Meet the Dogo Argentino

This large, athletic, powerful working dog, the Dogo Agentino, was developed in Argentina’s province of Cordoba in the 1920s. This pack-hunting dog with a strong head and thick neck was bred to protect family and property. This breed was developed to find, chase, and catch dangerous game. Its sense of smell and bravery, along with its agile yet muscular build, makes it a perfect choice to hunt wild boar, pumas, and other destructive predators. The Dogo Agentino is an entirely white dog with an alert and intelligent expression.
