Staffordshire Terrier
Kind of a cousin to the Pitbull, the Staffordshire Terrier is a strong breed of dog that needs to be trained well from very early on in order to avoid aggressive tendencies, and as with the Pitbull, they were also bred for many years for brutal dog fights giving them a bad reputation with insurance companies. However, those in the know, know that they do have a long history of being good with humans, making them loving and loyal pets.

Presa Canario
As implied by the name, this breed originated in the Canary Islands. But, unlike those who go to the islands to lie back and relax, the Presa Canario is in no way relaxed or laid back. This is a very large dog that has been bred to herd livestock, which has also given them the instincts to take out anything perceived as a threat. They need a lot of outdoor activity, so if you live in a small apartment or house, and don’t have a lot of time for outdoor activity, probably best to pick another breed. Most locales that have banned certain dog breeds, include the Presa Canario; inevitably making this dog a pet many insurance companies want to avoid.
