Super sweet, smart, strong and fearless. It surprised me when I saw it's bite force 400 to 700 absolutely insane way more than a pittbull and rottweiler and German shepherd that have a bite force of about 200 to 400.

We have a 6 month BMC: intelligent and very sweet - active outdoors but chills indoors. Obedient, though she has a stubborn side. Also super sensitive, so be gentle! Overall a beautiful, strong, smart, and loving dog.
