Just adopted a 8mo Dogo from a shelter. My only chance at owning one with how much it costs to get one from a breeder.
He's relatively 'timid' aka all I was given as his temperment from shelter. He is very hard headed I can tell, speaks minimal Spanish (zero English), playful which my 10yo male excites and 10yo f pisses off. Both fixed.
My 10yo f has been the alpha with the male jumping on other dogs to defend in the past. Some is him, some is my assumption all will get along. I know there is an obvious long row to hoe teaching the Dogo the ways of our family etc. Any training pointers would be GREATLY appreciated.
I spent 2yrs fighting the 10yo m until we finally started seeing eye to eye and now all is well. Just don't want to do that again if I don't have to.
Thanks in advance.
