The Presa Canario is one serious looking dog. Originating in the Canary Islands, this dog looks like a Pit Bull a bit, but actually is a descendant of the
Mastiff and various cattle dogs native to the Canary Islands. Many people believe the islands were named after Canary birds. They were not. They were named after these dogs which roamed the islands. "Canaria" is the Latin word for canis or dog. Following are our current listings of Presa Canario puppies for sale.
