#6 Dogo Argentino ($8,000)
Even though their hunting days are over, the Dogo Argentino retains strong territorial guarding instincts and a desire to protect its owners and their homes. They are also very lovable and devoted to their owners, just like the majority of guard dog breeds.
The Dogo Argentino was originally created for big-game hunting. Since they still carry such genes, they are strong athletes who enjoy playing games that make use of their great sense of smell. Therefore, if you’re considering getting this white short-haired dog breed, you’ll need more than just money. The AKC, which recently recognized the breed, suggests that the new owner be a seasoned dog owner who is reliable and has some sort of experience with dog training.
