I got him at 9 weeks but this is a pic of him at appx 8 weeks. It's the picture I seen online and thought, damn he looks BA. I have had quite of few dogs before (Doberman, Rott's, Pit's, C.C. & AmStaff ) and some others. So I was looking at another CC or a Boerboel and also Presa's & the Presa Canario was my choice.

WOW! He looks great! What are they doing to the pup to make him so muscular?

Thank-you and I'm not sure. It was just a good picture imo.

He is stunning!

Thank-you and that's what I thought also. He took a great picture.

Phenomenal looking pup!

Nice, looks like he'll a big boy

Thanks, I'm hoping for 125-145lbs. His dad was 145lbs at 20 months.

he is a good looking pup with or without crop

Thank-you and I like him more everyday.

Because as he should he just keeps growing and his deep bark and attitude is awesome as well. If other Presa puppy's are like him you just need to give them time. He was quite the baby and scared of everything when I got him.

Great looking pup! At 5 months, he will enter another fear stage at about 6 months and the teenage stage at about 9-11 months.

You want slow and steady growth which equals a healthy mastiff.

Thanks again. And super about another fear stage. I have read about that and not looking forward to it. But at least now I know he has some beast in him and not just a crybaby.

And he is averaging 4lbs a week which my vet and another vet think is inline with the mastiff breed. Maybe others will chime in on this.
He was appx 10lbs in first pic &
He was appx 60lbs in post 9 with two pics

Presa's can vary deppending on the line and i'm not very good at lbs/kg conversion, but 60lbs/30kg at 5months seems a bit in the heavy side as well as 145lbs/70kgs as adult, but that's just my opinión and like i said presa's lines can vary a lot. Just use your best jugdment and keep an eye on how he looks over all. He looks great for now anyway.

His dad did not look heavy at all, just solid. According to the standards, I guess he is over limits. And thanks about his looks. He seems to be doing great. I can't wait till his head starts growing larger now, more like his dads.
