| Rasa Dogo Argentino (Argentinski pas ili Argentinska doga) bio je san Dr. Antonia Noresa Martineza i njegovog brata Agustina. Godine 1925. Antonio ima viziju idealnog kompanjona zaštitnika i superiornog velikog lovca - okretnog brzog i dovoljno velikog za proganjanje divljh svinja i velikih mačaka preko grubog argentinskog terena. Važno je istaći da je Borbeni Pas iz Kordobe (kombinacija Mastifa, engleskog Buldoga, Bul Terijera i Boksera) danas izumro. Početak rada na novoj vrsti bio je posvećen eliminisanju borbene žestine i plahovitosti i razvijanju lovačkog instinkta. Trud da se postigne taj cilj bio je veoma bitan i visoko uspešan. | Dogo Argentino Dogs were the dream of Dr. Antonio Nores Martinez and his brother Agustin. In 1925, Antonio conceived a vision of an ideal companion and guardian, and superior big game hunter - agile and able enough to persue wild boar and large cats through the rough Argentino terrain. It is important to point out that the Fighting Dog of Cordoba, a breed established in that area consisting of Mastiff, English Bulldog, Bull Terrier, and Boxer is now extinct. Much of the early work on the new breed was devoted to eliminating the fighting eagerness and developing the hunting instinct. An effort that was essential and highly successful. |
Formula sa kojom je Antonio počeo bila je: 1) Borbeni pas iz Kordobe kojem je dodata krv od; 2) Pointera da bi mu dodao čulo mirisa koje je bitno zbog lova; 3) Bokser dodaje živost energičnost i krotkost; 4) Veliki Danac zbog veličine; 5) Bul Terijer, neustrašivost; 6) Buldog mu daje široke grudi i odvažnost; 7) Irski Vučji Hrt donosi instikt lovca u divljoj igri; 8) Bordoška Doga zbog snažnih čeljusti; 9) Pirinejski Mastif zbog belog krzna; 10) Španski Mastif daje mu srazmernu snagu. Braća su sakupila deset Kordoba kuja kao njihovo jezgro od kojeg će početi mešanje rasa dok se ne pojave mladunci koji obećavaju željeni smer. U jednom trenutku je pod njihovom negom bilo čak trideset kuja. Ovaj posao ne bi bio moguć za dva mladića koji imaju školske obaveze da nije bilo pomoći njihove rodbine i prijatelja njihovog oca. Senior Martinez unajmljuje čoveka koji se brine za pse dok su Antonio i Agustin u školi. Braća troše sav svoj džeparac na hranu za pse. Takodje su im pomogle donacije hrane koje obezbedjuju očevi prijatelji. Takvu pomoć su braća rado prihvatila ali san i plan kako ga ostvariti u stvarnosti bio je Antoniov. Bio je genijalac koji je vodio program i Agustin je uvek bio na njegovoj strani. Kasnije u životu kada Antonije postaje priznati hirurg njegovo znanje iz medicine pomaže mu da unapredi svoj san. Prvi standard za novu rasu napisao je 1928. Tužno je što nije doživeo da vidi svoj san realizovan u potpunosti jer je ubijen od strane čoveka koji je hteo da ga opljačka tokom lova na divlje veprove 1956. godine. Agustin tada nastavlja njegov san o stvaranju nove rase, spašavajući je od propasti i glavni uzgajivački centar preseljava iz Kordobe u Esquel, koji je smešten u Patagoniji na jugu Argentine. Agustin Nores Martinez bio je argentinksi ambasador u Kanadi i koristi mogučnost putovanja da bi proširio novu rasu po svetu. Lovci na krupnu divljač u Argentini i susednim zemljama koristili su Argentinskog psa za divlje svinje i pume. Ubrzo Dogo Argentino postaje legenda. Dogo Argentino je izdržljiv lovački pas kao i njegov predak Iriski Vučji Hrt. Od njega se očekuje da prati divlju svinju kroz puste pampe, napadne je i satera u čošak držeći je dok se ne pojavi lovac. Sposoban je za iznenađujuće brzi trk na kratkim razdaljinama, ali njegova jača strana je pokrivanje dugih razdaljina kroz galop. Sateravši vepra u ćošak, mora mu ostati dovoljno snage u rezervi da napadne i drži divljeg vepra teškog preko 180 kila. U tradicionalnom lovu na divlje svinje lovac bi skočio na svinju i ubio je nožem u srce dok su psi zakačeni za nju držeči je u smrtonosnom stisku. Dogo Argentino rasa je priznata od strane Kinološke federacije Argentine i Argentinskog ruralnog društva 1964. i registrovana u zapisniku o poreklu pasa. Tek je trideset i prvog jula 1973 prihvaćena od strane Međunarodne kinološke federacije kao prva i jedina argentinska rasa. Dogo Argentino poseduje veoma jak lovački instinkt, neverovatnu odlučnost i legendarnu hrabrost. Vrlo je živahan i veseo, poseduje visoku inteligenciju i oštroumnost. Orjentisan je ka ljudima što ga čini društvenim i prijateljskim.
Njegovo samopouzdanje ga čini vernim ljudima koji su otvoreni i strpljivi.
Ova mnogostrana životinja je sposobna za dobru koncentraciju, veoma brzo uči i pamti naučeno gotovo odmah.
Odličan kao pas čuvar, Dogo Argentino je miran oko kuće, ipak spreman i hitar u svakom trenutku.
Dogo argentino nije lajav pas, mada je obdaren gromovitim glasom, ritmičnim i konstantnim kada je to potrebno. |
 Fighting Dog of Cordoba |
The formula Antonio started was: 1) the Fighting Dog of Cordoba, to which he added blood from; 2) the Pointer to give him a keen sense of smell which would be essential for the hunt; 3) The Boxer added vivacity and gentleness; 4) the Great Dane it's size; 5) the Bull Terrier, fearlessness; 6) the Bulldog gave it an ample chest and boldness; 7) the Irish Wolfhound brought it's instinct as a hunter of wild game; 8) the Dogue de Bordeaux contributed it's powerful jaws; 9) the Great Pyrenees it's white coat 10) the Spanish Mastiff gave it's quota of power. The brothers gathered ten Cordoban bitches as their nucleus and began bringing in the first of the contributing breeds as studs until the early offspring showed promise in the desired direction. At a certain point in the program they had as many as thirty bitches in their care. This undertaking would not have been possible for two young men still in school had it not been for the help given them by their family and friends of their father. The senior Martinez hired a kennel man to care for the dogs while Antonio and Agustin were in school and the brothers spent all their pocket money on food for the dogs. They were also helped by food donations given by their father's friends. Such help was gladly accepted by the brothers in those early years but the dream and the plan on how to make it a reality was Antonio's. His was the genius that guided the program and Agustin was always at his side. Later in life when Antonio became a respected surgeon, his medical knowledge improved and refined his dream. He wrote the first standard for the new breed in 1928. Sadly Antonio never lived to see his dream become reality. He was killed by a man who intended to rob him during a boar hunt in 1956. Agustin then took over the dream, working on the new breed, bringing it back from near devastation and moving the headquarters for the breed from Cordoba to Esquel, located in Patagonia in southern Argentina. Agustin Nores Martinez was the Argentine Ambassador to Canada and he used this opportunity of travel to spread Dogos throughout the world. Big game hunters in Argentina and it's neighboring countries were using the Dogo on boar and puma. The Dogo Argentino was fast becoming a legend. The Dogo Argentino is an endurance hound much like his Irish Wolfhound ancestor. He is expected to track the wild boar across vast pampas, corner the animal and attack and hold it for the hunters. He is capable of dazzling bursts of speed for short distances, but his forte is covering long distances at a gallop. Having cornered the boar, he must have enough strength in reserve to attack and hold a wild boar weighing up to 400 pounds. In a traditional boar hunt the hunter will jump on the boar and kill it with a knife thrust to the heart while the Dogos are locked on with a death grip. The Dogo Argentino was recognized by the Cinologic Federation of Argentina and the Argentina Rural Society in 1964. The Argentina Kennel Club, a member of the Federation Cynologique International (FCI) recognized the breed on July 31, 1973. Dogo Argentino have very strong hunting instinctis, remarcable decisiveness and legendary courage. He is very intelligent cheerful, frank, humble, friendly, and not a hard barker, always conscious of its power. He is oriented to people what make him sociable and frendly. It should never be aggressive, a trait that should be severely observed. He is great watch dog allways ready and fast. Dogo Argentino is not barking dog but has roaring voice witch he will used if he must. Its domineering attitude makes it continuously compete for territory with specimens of the same sex, most noticeable behaviour in males. As a hunter, it is smart, silent, courageous and brave. In early period of life Dogo Argentino must be in contact with other domestic animals to prevent aggressiveness toward them latter in his life.
