Fila Brasileiro

The Fila Brasileiro is a type of Brazilian Mastiff that finds itself under the ‘working breed’ umbrella. The Fila Brasilero comes from Brazil where it was bred for aggression and tracking. Used by hunters as well as farmers seeking to protect their cattle, the Fila Brasilero is an exceptionally strong dog. This breed of pet was also used by slave owners in order to hunt down slaves who had managed to escape.

The Fila Brasilero can grow to 110lbs in weight while standing at 30in in height. With a distinct brindle coat and a large head, the Brasileiro can be quite intimidating if you don’t know what you are doing with them.
