I've had multiple dog phases and will continue to have dog phases so the idea of picking one breed is stupid but I will go with catahoula bulldog just because I only recently started paying attention to them.

I need some kind of parameters... Is this real recognised breeds? Or are mongrel working strains included? If real breeds only, which kennel clubs and registries do we count as legitimate?

[Hardcastle]

Actually... scratch that, I would like the challenge of doing real recognised purebreeds.

Then afterwards I will do my actual top 10.

Dogal
Boergreyhound
Galgo Patagonico
Staghound
Bull Arab
Catahoula Bulldog
Rhodesian Ridgeback
Airedale Terrier
Alano Espanol
American Pitbull Terrier
I need to actually sit down and think to make an accurate list but the topic doesn't really warrant it. I would say ''in no particular order'' and some of them I literally like equally but had to put one over the other but it is kind of in order.

[Musth]

1. Central Asain Ovcharka
2. Jagdterrier
3. Airdale Terrier
4. Paterdale terrier
5. Apbt
6. Caucasian Volkodav
7. Kangal
8. American Staghound
9. Tazi/Tazy
10. Tosa Inu

Honestly I don’t know if that’s in order or not. And have more breeds too. I don’t really have a favourite if I’m being honest. I pretty much like all working dogs if I’m being honest.

Are you that guy named ''P'' on youtube? He literally just brought Tazi dogs to my attention and seemed smart.

Corgis, poms, poodles, mini schnauzers, yorkies... you're banned. Lol
I guess you don't value dogs for their toughness value like the rest of us do?
