Dosa was developed in the late 1800's from a variety of imported European and Asian working breeds, but most fanciers agree that it was finally established as a recognizable type by crossing the Japanese Tosa-Inu with the Neapolitan Mastiff and the Dogue de Bordeaux over the next 100 years. In the 2nd half of the 20th century, a small percentage of English Mastiff blood was introduced into some strains as well, but the "Beauty" Dosa was mostly developed through generations of inbreeding and selection based on coat colour and temperament.
In appearance almost identical to a red-coloured variety of the Neapolitan Mastiff, the Mee-Kyun Dosa is a massive, large and loose-skinned Molosser, somewhat lethargic and seemingly sluggish. However, this wrinkled gentle giant can make a good property watchdog and is reportedly easy to obedience train.
Devoted to its owner and loving of children, the Dosa is said to be a good family companion, but it is still rarely seen outside of Korea. The head is large, round and wide, with many wrinkles on the face and hanging ears and lips. The neck is strong and has prominent dewlaps. Wide-chested and tall, the Dosa makes a convincing guardian. The coat is short, smooth and flat, always coming in shades of orange, red and brown.
People always wanted dogs who are gladiator-like muscled and great looking. And breeds like English Bulldog, Dogue de Bordeaux, Mastino Napoletano, English Mastiff, Saint Bernard and Tosa Inu meet these needs. However, there are also people who love such type of dogs in a smaller version and that is why dog breeds like English Bulldog.
Anyway, many human beings long for not only good appearance but also for some guarding and working ability. Therefore they often choose our Tosa Inu for their favorite dog. And those who are looking for great show dogs mainly, they would probably prefer Dogue de Bordeaux, Neapolitan Mastiff, English Mastiff and Saint Bernard. We know that and therefore our kennel devotes large attention to these famous breeds of dogs.
