Default donovan pincher, what do u think?

last night i had the opportunity to watch a donovan pincher work. i would have to say that this new breed is insane. also that if this breed gets into the hands of an irresposible owner the world could come down on this breed. the handler was telling me that this is nota first time handler breed as they WILL come up the leash on its owner/handler.

altho this dog may be takeing a lot of jobs away from the dutchies, mals and GSD's.

so what do u guys think? the new super working dog??

(check out youtube and watch some of these dogs work)

We talked about them over at Leerburg and we can't figure out his breeding goals and can't see any uniformity in structure in any of the dogs, they all look like non discript mutts and I can imagine the temperments/drives/nerves would be the same

the one on the link looks scary!
no matter how "super" the working dog, i would much rather have an OK working dog with a great temperment than one that is likely to 'come up the leash on its owner/handler. '

i doubt these dogs will replace GSDs ect.. i looked them up and alot of them dont even look like the same breed of dog. looks like alot of high drive mutts.

exactly what i thought, when i look at the dog and i hear about there temperment i just see a terminator dog or a genetic freak of a dog.

I've seen a couple of them. i even evaluated a couple for use in police work. To be honest I wasn't impressed. I certainly don't see them ever surpassing the GSD and/or the Mal. Most police trainers I've spoken with pretty much feel the same way.

I wouldn't call it a breed really. They are too different in appearance and have not been bred in enough generations to consider them a breed in my opinion. Personally I consider them similar to a bandog.
