And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Friend of mine in Argentina has a dogo argentino, I think they are very similar. Great guard dogs and if you are introduced as a family friend, they will protect you as such. Keeps crime down nicely which is why they are popular. One put his paws on my shoulders and I am 6' tall, he was not fully extended. Just be sure you are ok with slobber.
Around 2001 in San Francisco, a woman walking two dogs could not control them when they decided to attack a neighbor that was opening her apt door. The neighbor died, and the dog owner, and her husband who was at work, both went to prison. The charge was being in posession of an uncontrollable animal, or similar. She couldn't physically control either of the large dogs, and didn't have a weapon that could have stopped the dogs. Similar dogs. Just checked, 15 years to life, and she is still in prison.
The original Corsi were used as dogs of conquest who earned their stripes as “pireferi,” fearless dogs who charged enemy lines with buckets of flaming oil strapped to their backs.
WOW!
If you have a moment, look up the American pitbull Prague. She weighs in at 196 pounds, makes these corsi look like house puppies. Moves like a black jag and has yellow eyes. Her pups go for ... starters... $26 000 apiece. Like this corsi, a really good family dog.
Magnificent animal.

DeleteStick a few tats on the mutt's face and you'd have the canine version of Mike Tyson.
