Established in 1998, Cabeza Grande Kennel is a preservation breeder, dedicated to improving the state of the Presa Canario in the United States. Our dogs are bred for health, temperament, working ability and conformity to true Spanish Presa Canario type. We strive for the “total” Presa.
We offer breeding services, as well as puppies for sale. Should you decide to buy a Presa Canario from us, we would like to thank you and welcome you into our Presa Canario family!
The Spanish Presa Canario is an impressive specimen. Calm, attentive and diligent in any task they’re set to, these dogs come from a rich history of excellence. Today, Cabeza Grande Kennel strives to continue this excellence, staying true to the purebred roots of this noble lineage of dogs. We believe in improving the condition of the breed today. It is our mission to produce great companions, workers, and examples of the breed—and then to place them with equally great owners. Well-rounded Canary dogs are one with a title at both ends, with health and temperament to match!
Our dams and sires must pass stringent criteria before being considered for our breeding program. All dogs are health and temperament tested, and we have the most and highest Schutzhund, Obedience and Tracking titled dogs of the breed in the USA! From 2013- to present, up to half of the top 10 UKC Perro de Presa Canario in the United States were bred and/or owned by us.
As experienced Presa Canario breeders, we know what it takes to produce award-winning litters. Much more than putting 2 dogs together, we take the time to breed and raise dogs destined for excellence.
Our Presa puppies are raised inside, in environments specifically designed to foster their natural traits and strong developmental behaviors. We provide age-appropriate mental and physical stimulation beginning at three days old—early neurological stimulus helps build better stress reactors as adults. Toys, objects, sounds, and surfaces are all very important to the development of sound adult dogs. The result is a well-rounded dog that’s true-to-breed and ready for a long, happy life—whether as a guardian, companion or champion.
