These puppies are energetis and playful! Both mom and dad (deceased) come from a long line of pure bred stock. We never used them for fighting only as loved pets and protectors of the house and family which is in their breed to do. These dogs are excellent with children and need socializing with people to prevent over protective behavior against strangers. Playful and attentive, these dogs need space and activity but are content to chill and relax too.
