We had two several years ago that looked just like that. They were a cross of Rottweiler and Catahoula Leopard hound. Both were brindle and both were big. One was 125 pounds and the other was closer to 150 pounds. They were fierce as protection dogs but loyal to us. The breeder bred them to hunt hogs but both made good companions. Both would sit between me and a stranger and not move. They would show teeth, quietly growl, and raise hackles but never tried to bite anybody. If the stranger moved they would stand up and growl louder. Of course, nobody tried to approach me very often so they didn’t need to bite. They were very well trained.

BTW, Pit Bulls and German Shepard’s are the only two breeds I don’t like and refuse to have.

We just got a Catahoula mix a couple of months ago. It's the second Leopard Hound the family has owned. Very intelligent dogs, excellent watchdogs, and very eager to please. The Catahoula has become one of my favorite breeds...

I’ve never seen a 125 pound pit bull

Which is what they are described as

And unlike most folks here I’ve owned pits and abds and shepherds and rotties and dobies and giant schnauzers

Danger dogs as some puss upthread said

Something odd about this

Those dogs could be presa canario is my guess

Neighbors don’t believe it was those dogs

Cop just throws out there these are fighting dogs offering zero evidence and neighbors say hell no they weren’t

This forum really loves their lap dogs and....cats
