Dogo Cubano
Dogo Cubano also known as Cuban Mastiff, Cuban Dogo and Cuban Dogge is an extinct breed of dog from Cuba. It was of Bull Mastiff type. This breed of dog was used for dog fighting. The breed was introduced in Cuba to capture runaway slaves (''cimarrones''). After the abolition of slavery it no longer paid to keep the dogs, and the breed ceased to exist with time. ==Appearance== They were between a Bulldog and a Mastiff in size. The muzzle was short, broad, and abruptly truncated. The head was broad and flat, and the lips, deeply pendulous. The medium-sized ears, were also partly pendulous, the tail rather short, cylindrical, and turned upwards and forwards towards the tip. They were described as a "rusty wolf-colour", with black face, lips, and legs. They were very notable for their chasing of slaves.〔"The natural history of dogs : canidae or genus canis of authors ; including also the genera hyaena and proteles", Smith, Charles Hamilton, Jardine, William, Sir, W. H. Lizars (1839)〕
