| The Great Mastiff Dog Breed.. by noona(op): 10:09am On Apr 05, 2018 |
I practically woke up right today  Here's what I read about the mastiff.. Historically,they were used as guard and fighting dogs,their bravery and strength made them popular with the nobility of ancient Rome and they were frequently pitted against human gladiators,bears,lions and tigers,the mastiffs comes in apricot,brindle and fawn colouring with a black mask and can weigh from 120 to 230 pounds,they are generally good natured,peaceful and family oriented dogs,I'm crazy about MASTIFFS.. There are different mastiff dogs ranging from the Doberman that originated from Germany to the English mastiff from old England..there's still a long list of this breed.. Abruzzi mastiff Bordeaux American mastiff Boxer Cuban mastiff Bull mastiff English mastiff Cane corso Dutch mastiff Neopolitan mastiff Great Dane Tibetan mastiff Japanese mastiff Brazilian mastiff Great Pyrenees And the list goes on....I would love to have one of these... |
