New Guinea Singing Dog
The New Guinea Singing Dog is dog with fox-like appearance, that comes from New Guinea. It’s name comes from its specific vocalisation which sounds similar to a wolf’s howl. Up until 2012, there was only one photograph available of a wild sighting of this breed. In 2016, the New Guinea Highland Wild Dog Foundation said they located and photographed a group of fifteen. The Singing Dog is sometimes described similar to a Dingo in appearance.

This species of dog can climb and jump like a cat, and are known to be extremely flexible.

Fila Brasileiro
The Fila Brasileiro is a large, powerful and intelligent dog that was developed in Brazil. This breed of dog is also named the Brazilian Mastiff. It isn’t the best dog for someone who has little experience with dogs as it has an unforgiving temperament and aggressiveness. This dog is the right choice for someone looking for outstanding tracking abilities, especially for larger prey, but many countries have placed a ban on the breed due to its inability to maintain a balanced level of socialism around strangers. The Brazilian Mastiff is not the kind of dog to be left in the yard with little or no attention. This will only lead the dog to destructive behaviour and increased aggression.
