Our dogs are intended to be confident watchdogs. They are smart and trainable, but they are also dominant and stubborn.

These dogs are better suited for experienced owners.

These are the breeds we use in our bandogs: Neapolitan Mastiff, Presa Canario, English Mastiff, Cane Corso, Boerboel, Armenian Gampr, Dutch Sheperd, Great Dane, Central Asian Ovcharaka, German Shepherd, American Pitbull Terrier, Dogo Argentino, Fila Brasilerio, Caucasian Ovcharka, Catahoula, and Belgium Malinois.
