Dogue De Bordeaux similar breeds

Quick breed overview

This French breed was historically utilized for fighting and hunting. The traits of the Dogue de Bordeaux make it an excellent guard dog, but because it lacks aggressiveness, it is more trainable and easier to socialize as a puppy than some other Mastiff type breeds. However, if this muscular and powerful dog is to fit happily into a family household, it will require experienced training.
