Bred in Argentina for big-game hunting, the Dogo Argentino is a strong, muscular dog originally designed to hunt wild boars. They are incredibly athletic, independent, and have a strong prey drive, making them dangerous if not properly trained.
Dogo Argentinos are banned in Australia, Denmark, and the UK due to concerns about their strength and aggression. While they can be affectionate and loyal, their high energy and dominance require an experienced owner who can establish strong leadership and consistent training.
Why They’re Banned: Aggressive tendencies, hunting instincts, and immense physical strength. Where They’re Banned: UK, Australia, Denmark, and parts of Europe.
