Brief Description and History

Fila Brasileiro
(Brazilian Fila, Brazilian Mastiff)
Brief Description and History

This very loyal and fearless guard dog looks like a cross between a Mastiff and a Bloodhound, and was originally bred to protect the Brazilian plantations of the 19th century.

Filas were also useful on hunting journeys to track, attack and then hold the prey until the hunter arrived to take over. The word 'Fila' is, in fact, derived from a Portuguese word meaning 'to hold' or 'to secure'. At one time this dog was also employed to track down and capture runaway slaves.

It is probably the only breed that was selected for centuries to deeply dislike the humans they were not raised with, and, to this day, temperament tests run during championships require the dogs to attack without being coached, to remain self-confident during a shooting test, and to openly show their suspicion of strangers. The standard prescribes that, even at dog shows, Filas should not "allow the judge (a stranger) to touch it. And if it attacks the judge, such a reaction must not be considered a fault, but only a confirmation of its temperament."

A typical molosser breed, squarely built, well boned and with a massive head. A uniquene physical feature of this breed is his gait. The Fila has an ambling gait, created by moving both legs on the same side of the body at the same time, instead of diagonally like other dog breeds.
Centuries ago the ancestors of the Fila Brasileiro were crossed with Bloodhounds, Mastiffs and bulldogs brought to the new world by the Conquistadors. The resulting breed combined the great scenting ability of the Bloodhound, with power and fearless tenacity.

Another characteristic of the breed are its loose joints in the legs and spine. As a results, the Fila is able to change route suddenly and quickly, even at a gallop.

Filas typically have a sad look when at rest, which becomes energetic and determined when on the alert.
This made the Fila particularly suited to defend the ranches and cattle of the Minas Gerais region against thieves and jaguars.

The Fila is a courageous, determined and serene dog who shows self-confidence and fearlessness, even in unknown situations. Filas do not hide their aversion to strangers, however, with their human family, they can be very tender and affectionate and are extremely loyal.
