Animal Advocates Watchdog
It is legal for huge, dangerous dogs to be hired to guard businesses. There are no regulations.
Here is what we were told by one of the breeders of these dogs:
Sell Rottweiler pups for $400 - $600. Sold at 6 weeks of age.
Sell German shepherd pups for the same amount.
Sell English mastiff pups for $1000 - $3000. Males may weigh 200 lbs.
Will sell an adult Rottweiler or shepherd with some training for $600 - $4000.
They plan to breed fila mastiffs, also called Brazilian mastiffs, crosses between English mastiff, greyhound and bloodhound.
The owner said, "They bite - no warning, just come up and bite. Can jump six foot fences. Can be over 200 lbs. Bred to chase slaves and for jaguar hunting". They sell pups for $2000.
