I guess that's where I screwed up too....just didn't pay enough.
Ahhh... Bryant... your dry humor cracks me up brother...
Dark colored Dogos...... Here I go again.... I get in trouble with the wife for spendin' too much time bullchittin' with youin's but I can't help but get sucked into a subject like this...
DOGOS... Got a good one(Thank you LaHistoriaDogos), and as best as I can describe... A genetic hog dog... great at some things, not so great at others... but still a 1000% hog dog...
I can actually see the passion bred into these dogs by hunters a world away.... hunters with a different style, different terrain... but a hog dog is still a hog dog....
As for the color issue... wouldn't hurt my feelin's a bit to own a colored Dogo... HOWEVER.... I hunt some real "keen" white cur dogs myself... and don't have any health issues because they're white... To tell the truth... I actually would PREFER to hunt "mostly" white dogs because they're easy to see, especially at distance... Me and mine see a white flash from a few hundred yds and it's as good as the ol' garmin sayin' "they're that-a-way"...
Been REAL tempted to cross Bucho with my rough cur dogs for some straight, run/catch/devastate dogs... I prefer to hear a good bay and slip in with a catch dog... but for the people that have been requesting my services lately, a smart RCD team would certainly fit the bill...
The health issues, I've always believed, are from extreme inbreeding/linebreeding... and the white sure seems to accentuate this problem...
My Dogo is a tremendous specimen... his faults are.... skin issues(baaad hot spots in summer requiring constant attention), slow healing properties(strange... not used to this)... He is too big for me, but hunted loose with some the same size, he might be perfect if that was your style...
