The Dogo Argentino is a large, robust and agile dog, with a big and powerful head. It doesn't need much care and is well adapted to all environments and climates. Because he is athletic, he requires frequent exercise and open spaces. Like many dog hunters, to soften their hunting instincts and independence, he needs a steady and patient education from a very young age, since it was created to hunt wild boar.

It is a dog with good nature and he is affectionate, very loving with children and doesn't bark too much. It is a courageous and tenacious guardian who can get to the ultimate consequences in the defense of their own. It is a homely dog, which maintains good balance, but his independent and hunter spirit require constant education. Sometimes it is tough with other animals.
