Meet the breeder

As experienced breeders, we do everything we can to ensure breed standards are passed down to each new litter. We’re proud to be positively contributing to this wonderful breed.

Q. & A. with Joshua

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I’ve always had animals since I was a child. My parents gifted me 2 Chows and later a German Shepherd to care for to teach me responsibilities. In college, I volunteered at a veterinarian clinic to learn how to properly care for and help animals. In 2004, I began breeding guardians for neighbors in a small community who were having issues with burglars. In 2009, I was introduced to the Presa Canario breed. I was and still am amazed at their look, temperament, confidence, and size. It was like love at first sight. Since then I’ve been 100% committed to the Presa Canario.
  • What makes your program special?

    We research the parent’s Health, Genetics, Temperament, Functionality, and Structure equally before breeding to bring you the best Presa possible. Our Presa’s are well balanced, they can be either a great family companion, show dog and/or working dog.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include black, fawn, and tiger. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    It was a great experience, buying my pup and new family member from Joshua. He responded to all my messages was very informative. Kept me up-to-date on the full process as well as setting up his transfer to me from Texas. It was a smooth process. The puppy is healthy. He’s doing great and growing fast. I was happy to fire such a fantastic breeder for my Presa!

    Everything went amazing! From when I initially contacted him with interest he was very accommodating and easy to work with. I couldn’t be happier with the dog that I got. After owning a pit bull for years Emmett has been fantastic. Great personality and intelligence as well as a solid, strong build with great structure!! Highly recommend Josh if you are considering owning a Presa!

    Joshua was amazing! His knowledge of presas and insight with selecting a puppy that would thrive with our dog, Ghost, a Cane Corso was very helpful. Joshua provided updates before the litter was born and then the next 8 weeks. Photos and videos of the puppies helped us select our boy, Legend.

    We had an outstanding experience with Space City Presas and its owner, Joshua. From the very beginning, Joshua proved to be a responsible, trustworthy, and knowledgeable breeder who truly cares about his dogs and their future homes. He was extremely responsive and informative, answering all our questions and helping guide us through the process of selecting the perfect addition to our family. Thanks to Joshua’s insight and guidance, we brought home Thanos—and we couldn’t be more thrilled. Thanos is everything we hoped for and more: he has a fantastic temperament, impressive size and structure, and a beautiful, healthy coat that reflects the high quality of care and breeding behind him. The entire process was seamless from start to finish, and it was absolutely worth the trip to Houston to bring our pup home. If you’re looking for a top-tier Presa Canario and a breeder you can trust, Space City Presas is the place to go. Highly recommend!
