Neapolitan Mastiff

The Neapolitan Mastiff, or "Mastino," is a massive and imposing breed known for its calm and loyal temperament. These dogs have a distinctive appearance with their heavy wrinkles and loose skin. They are intelligent but may be a bit stubborn, and they require consistent training and socialization. Neapolitan Mastiffs are not highly energetic and are relatively laid-back for their size. They have a relatively short lifespan and can be prone to certain health issues. This ancient breed has its origins in Italy and is appreciated for its protective nature and imposing presence.
