Thanks for the youtube link. Those are not the specific strain that I am interested in. Pups are generally very cute, but it is the adults that are most important and need to be observed. The major thing is how obedient they are relative to stopping an attack instantly upon the command of their master and if they can be left to range the property without leaving its boundaries. A chained or penned up dog is not too useful for fighting coyotes. They should be highly territorial, but not aggressive to other dogs without good reason. They must be completely sub-dominant to all family members and never ever snap at a child. If they do they should be culled. Many of todays mastiff-bulldog types breeds will challenge the members of the household for dominance and that just will not do.
