$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$&$. As long as this is the main motivation for most breeders it can't be fixed. The average dogo breeder ain't gonna miss a $ to better the breed. The ideal dogo seems hard to consistantly achieve. That's a lot of traits to cram into a single dog. They cost a LOT and its hard for the average man or woman to be able to afford enough good dogs to breed right.

There are breeders out there, that give dogos away to certain types of hunters - for some of us dogo owners, it's not about money at all - it's about picking the right person to do right by the dog.

They are not for everyone, slow maturing, hard headed, and some need a good push when it comes to catching young.
And yes they are big! My male is 97lbs, my female is 85-90lbs - but they are ment to control a hog by themselves - long legs, long neck, and enough weight not to get tossed around to bad. It's just a dog, like every other dog. Some are good some are bad.
