Q&A
answer · Presa Canario
It happens to me too. I just laugh and explain he's friendly, but it can get repetitive.
answer · Presa Canario
For sure! My dog looks intimidating but at home, they’re just a big cuddle bug. They get along great with my kids and love to play. I’ve noticed that Presas often have this gentle nature, despite their imposing size.
answer · Presa Canario
I usually don’t allow it unless I know the person well. My Presa is friendly with the family and friends but has a natural instinct to guard. I recommend introducing them slowly to any new faces.
answer · Presa Canario
I wouldn’t go to dog parks either, especially with a Perro de Presa Canario.
answer · Presa Canario
One of my favorite things about having a Presa Canario is their intelligence. They are very trainable and have a strong work ethic. I've been amazed at how quickly mine picks up new commands. However, they can also have a stubborn side, which keeps me on my toes!
answer · Presa Canario
For sure, they require experienced handling.
question · Presa Canario
Would you recommend a Perro de Presa Canario?
answer · Presa Canario
Absolutely! My Presa Canario is known for his intimidating looks, but he loves nothing more than to snuggle. This breed has a reputation for being protective, but once someone sees his softer side, they can’t help but smile.
answer · Presa Canario
Every time I come home, he greets me with a big slobbery kiss.
