An impressive entrance of 139 Dogos Argentinos at the Eurodog Show 2007 which was held in Zagreb, Croatia from 8th to 10th of June. The judging of Giulio Bezecchi from Italy (for puppy and junior classes) and Rafael Malo Alcrudo from Spain (for the intermediate and adult classes) didn't leave the best taste for the participing dogueros and probably gave reason to those who had doubts when the judges names were announced. It was a surprise when no uncropped Dogo appeared on the shortlists of each class. Besides this, the all-around image of the dogos was in a very high level and some very interesting dogos appeared in the front places. Best of Breed was Aragon bred and owned by Ivan Redegalli from Italy. Best Female was Pimenta Divina Fortitudo owned and bred by Mr. Luca Ricci from Italy and best junior in Breed was Inti del Picadero bred and owned by Francesco and Mario Pinelli from Italy. A Gala Dinner was held after the show at the Restaurant Pavillion where more than 200 people participated.
