About Dogo Argentino

The Dogo Argentino is a powerful, athletic, and noble breed that originated in Argentina, developed in the 1920s by Dr. Antonio Nores Martinez. Bred from a combination of strong and courageous breeds such as the Cordoba Fighting Dog, Pointer, Great Dane, and Boxer, the Dogo Argentino was designed for big-game hunting and protection. This striking dog has a muscular, well-balanced build and a short, smooth white coat that highlights its strength and elegance. Despite their imposing appearance, Dogo Argentinos are known for their loyalty, intelligence, and affectionate nature towards their families. They are courageous and confident dogs, yet gentle and protective when properly trained and socialised. Because of their strength and energy, Dogo Argentinos need experienced owners who can provide structure, exercise, and consistent leadership. With the right training, they make devoted, obedient, and loving companions who thrive in active households that understand their working background.
