Re: DOGS OF GENIUS DOGO ARGENTINOS. Tom, I am sorry about your Dogo. Don't give up you should still keeping looking for a Dogo to show. I show Boxers in AKC & am looking for a Dogo puppy myself. I have asked around about dogos at the local UKC shows here in IL & I was told Julie bluntly tells everyone that she is showing all of her litter mate Dogos against each other just to rack up Top Ten points on one dog. If I were her I would be embarrassed to do that. I considered buying a puppy sired by Bucho Del Toro (owned by Julie) only because she is close & I don't want to ship my Dogo from Argentina or California. But after doing my reserch I would never buy a Dogo out of Genius Dogos. After looking at her dogs pedigrees it does make me sick that she would inbreed the way she does. Her dog GRCH Anthos Of Genius is so inbred. His parents are basically half brother & half sister. That is amazing! I am surprised UKC will just let people inbreed Dogs that way but I guess some do it in AKC too :( . It is really ridiculous that she ever bred Anthos Of Genius in the first place let alone to show him against his litter mates to make him number 1. Breeders like this make me sick! Any ways if you & your wife really want to show you shouldn't let this stop you.
I am looking at a breeder in California named Debonaer. You should look them up. They say all the dogs are health tested & it looks like they are all from different import lines. I have been looking at her site for a few months & it look like she pretty much always has Dogo puppies for sale. I may buy one just need to save up $$ first. Good luck to you!

Loca vore-you're "up against" some of the puppy owners of Carla aka debonair Dogos-these people were ignorant enough to buy a Dog from that MILL so of course they are going to defend that decision, Otherwse they would have to admit that they screwed up.The truth is that if THEY KNEW what a REAL DOGO was then they would not have bought an IMITATION...Here are some facts for THEM-THE DOGO IS A HUNTER FIRST AND FOREMOST, A DOGO THAT CAN'T DO THE JOB THAT IT WAS CREATED TO DO ISN'T TRULY WHAT THE CREATORS HAD HOPED FOR(LOL) AND AS A RESULT-IT AIN'T A DOGO.
Check youtube for a great video of "diego" "the great boar hunter" Curring ona hog-IN A PEN. Debonair owners-check one of the Dogo boards(sorry don't know which one) for a post of a fabricated "hunt" on a domestic hog(the real hunters recognized that the hog was a shaved Hampshire<a breed of domestic hog>) in which Carla let her four dogs(won't embarass REAL DOGOS by calling them Dogos) chew on this poor hog-so that she could post pictures of "a hunt". Even the hunters called it "sadistic" .
Carla is making a whole lot of money of the ignorance of people like these ones above-they don't want a real DOGO-they want a big white Dog that looks like a Dogo.Of course carla was nice to them-she makes a great living off of people like these ones.
The REAL; people in the Dogo world call Carla just what she is-a PUPPY MILLER and that is why carla has been kicked out of the organization(s) and off of the boards.As for the people who bought puppies from her-Ignorance is bliss.
