GOOD FARM BULLDOGS...AKA ALAPAHA,AMERICAN,ECT... ARE VERY VERY NATURALLY PROTECTIVE..Smart..yes stubborn as they are pretty independent...BUT WITH INTENT TO WATCH OVER PROPERTY.. Can be great hog catchers. ,very hard bites. Punishing killers of predators on their property...gotta love em… And Look at the muscle in that jaw.. look at the width between the ears..POWER.I have heard police dog handlers that would not trust their malinois with their family.
The malinois is most often best used as a police or military dog. They are not laid back and very trainable.
My dogs are the opposite. Laid back, stubborn, are not very trainable, and very loyal. They are especially protective of elderly woman. Their job is to guard my place and get along with the neighbors They have a reputation for being able to kill other dogs.
Female with the open mouth is missing some teeth. She had come into the possession of pit fighters. My guess they were planning to use her as a training dog. She killed two of their dogs. When cops broke up that dog fighting ring, she was being starved and she had broken teeth. All of my dogs have Dixie in their ancestry along with other dogs known to do such things. A grandfather of two of my dogs was known in self defense to have killed three other dogs before he was lost track of. One of the dogs had its chest crushed. The two of mine that have thrown as mastiff types are not especially dog aggressive, but but they will not retreat from anything. One is friendly, as long as the other dog is friendly and she is smaller, bulldog like in build and behavior and less likely to bite an intruding human.
