Re: Rottie + a Tosa Inu doable?

We decided to give it a test. I got a big dog cookie and threw mid-line between the two. Rott sloooowly gets up, starts slowly shuffling toward the cookie. Tosa suddenly jumps up and runs toward Rott/cookie. Tosa plows into Rott just as Rott arrives, knocking him on his ass and devours cookie.

Rott starts his "You just made a big mistake, dude" bark, Tosa ignores but stands his ground. Rott slaps Tosa with his paw, Tosa jumps on him and pins him. No teeth involved at any point, but lots of scary growling.

After 30 secs they're both panting and flop down, this time near each other.

30 Min later threw another treat near the middle and this time the Rott got it cuz I guess he's figured out he better get there fast. Tosa realizes cookie gone and flops back down.

All in all both dogs were together 5 hours off leash, 2 hours of which were more or less unsupervised when my friend and I went inside to watch a game.

Not worried anymore, the Tosa's just as chill as the Rott and I'll build the outside enclosure with high tensile materials for unsupervised times.

It was actually quite interesting to watch the Tosa's technique, almost like a human wrestler. Rott never had a chance. Thinking about maybe getting one of these (female of course...would make for mad cool puppies...I guess' they'd be 'Rosas', lol...nah, too wimpy)


Just justify's the fact that I think you are a terrible owner... how dare you risk either dogs life by "experimenting" ....

you should be ashamed of yourself,...
