Bull Terriers

Bull Terriers will immediately remind people of their larger Pitbull brethren. Bull Terriers are most widely known for their white skin, egg shaped heads, long snout, and squat bodies. Though Bull Terriers aren’t exceptionally aggressive, they have shown the tendency to incite altercations with other dogs at a higher rate than companion breeds. This aggression is thanks in large part to their ‘prey drive’ which leads them to want confrontation with animals smaller than themselves. When raised right Bull Terriers are loving security dogs who have a knack for hunting, as well.

Boerboel

You wouldn’t want to run into a vicious Boerboel in the dead of night. The Boerboel is a South African Mastiff that was bred in order to help protect family homes and farmland. As such the Boerboel is a large breed that is attentive and capable of dealing out damage to anyone it deems a threat. Boerboels are known for being fiercely loyal while also being strong enough to take out wild game almost on their own. As is the case with any large and aggressive dog, poor training can sour the breed and turn them into a nightmare to deal with. If you want to own a Boerboel then you need to ensure that its natural aggressiveness is finely tuned with professional training.
