The honest version
WHAT THIS DOG NEEDS
The Tosa, also known as the Tosa Inu or Japanese Mastiff, is a large and powerful dog breed that originated in Japan. Bred in the late 19th century from native Shikoku dogs and Western mastiff-type breeds, the Tosa was developed for dog fighting, a tradition that has shaped its character and reputation. Today, the Tosa is recognized by the Fédération Cynologique Internationale (FCI) and is a rare breed outside its homeland, but it has a devoted following among enthusiasts who appreciate its calm and loyal nature.
