Centuries ago the ancestors of the Fila Brasileiro were crossed between Bulldogs, Bloodhounds, and Mastiffs. They were used to protect plantations, to hunt, and to track runaway slaves. They are unbelievable guard dogs that do not  like but will tolerate strangers. They make excellent family pets and are really good with children.  Filas very athletic dogs that have the body structure of a cat which allows them to have incredible speed. The Fila can come in many different colors from brindle, fawn, to black. The standards of the male Filas are 27 to 29.5 inches high at the shoulder and their weight is at least 150lbs.
