Character

The Dogue Brasileiro is docile, courageous, and makes an excellent guard dog and watchdog. They are obedient, loyal, and get along very well with children. They are even-tempered and consistently aim to please. While they are not unnecessarily aggressive, they will attack if an honest threat is detected. They are not dog aggressive, but because of the Bull Terrier blood, they shouldn’t be completely trusted to get along with all other dogs. They are a comparatively easy breed to obedience train.

Dog Training!

If you're having problems training your dog or getting control, you should read our review of DogProblems.com. Adam will do whatever it takes to help you whip your dog into shape. I've used them to help with my Great Dane as well as help friends train their dogs. It's the first place I go to help answer users Questions. Many training issues are too extensive to answer in this forum, which is why I refer a lot of the load to his site. Update: I've been using and recommending DogProblems for three years now. I, as well as my users, value the techniques we've learned. I get weekly emails from users who have become better owners from the information they received.
