Due to its temperament, a Presa Canario puppy can be a challenge to train. They require a firm owner who is willing and able to meet the challenges a young, dominant puppy may pose.

Health: as with any breed, those interested in purchasing a Presa Canario should carefully research breeders and a dog's ancestry to ensure that the breeding lines aren't unhealthy. Typically speaking, the higher the degree of consanguinity, the higher the likelihood of genetic defects. Due to the breed's vast gene pool, many of the genetic problems that affect other purebreeds are less evident. However, as the breed becomes more tightly interbred and bloodlines developed the incidence of genetic problems may increase.
