I was at the hunt test on Sunday and was surprised at how the Dogo had improved. I saw a few dogs that had never seen a pig before that caught clean and walked away without a scratch on a boar that had cut more experienced dogs that had seen plent of pigs before. The first hunt test I went to 9 or 10 years ago had a bunch of white Bullmastiff looking dogs that caught with zero skill or intelligence. So I think the bred is slowly improving.

That was right at 8 yrs ago. I was there then and a BIG improvement has happened since then. I also judged then and I can honestly say I did not pass almost the same amount of dogs then as now. Although I did see more dogs try it this time then last. I don't know maybe I am picky on what I want out of a hunting dogo and why in the 14 yrs I have had them only had two litters LOL.
