Unfortunately, there are a lot of strays in this town. Maybe you'll consider one from the link below.

I've never come aross them here - maybe keep an ey on mercadolibre and see if anything comes up.
We have fila brasileros on our farm. They are guardian dogs and a stranger isn't going to get on your property. They don't bother our horses at all. If they're introduced properly to smaller animals (cats, etc,) they are great with them. Wonderful with kids if that is a consideration. You might want to consider them - I have nothing but great things to stay about them. Very commonly used here in Argentina.
You're certainly entitled to your opinion. But as a fila owner, my filas are very carefully socialized and wonderful with my babies. Obviously I don't leave them unattended (nor would I with any animal) but they are far more gentle and careful with my kids than the smaller dogs we encounter. (In fact, I have to separate my friends jack russell from the kids as she growls at them). My fila guards the babies, escorts them everywhere and is very gentle with them. I don't know if you have filas but as you know, filas are not particularly affectionate dogs and don't jump or roughhouse as a rule, esp with proper training.
Filas are a dominant breed and you do need to be an experienced owner and make sure to socialize them properly and give them space to roam but IMO, they're probably one of the best breeds I've ever had.
Here you see my vicious fila with the twins as they play.
