American Bandogge
This fierce looking pup is also incredibly strong. The American Bandogge is a cross breed between a Neapolitan Mastiff and an American Pit Bull Terrier. Interestingly, despite its muscular look, the Bandogge was not originally bred for fighting. Nevertheless, some have used it as fighting dog. So if you’re looking for a next family-friendly pet, this one might be a little fierce for the playground, especially with those spikes.
Cane Corso
Don’t be fooled by those big brown, innocent puppy dog eyes. The Cane Corso is also known as a Mastiff and is another large, muscular Italian breed. The pup can weigh anywhere between 99 to 150 pounds and is a descendant of the Canis Pugnax, which was a Roman fighting dog. So in our experience, Roman fighting dogs might just be a little unpredictable, with a side of danger, so not the most ideal guest for a family celebration.
