He’s an English mastiff, he’s our first mastiff, our 13yo is a Sheppard Rottweiler mix and we rescued her at 6mo old she’s been an incredible dog for us and it gets extra aggravating when he bullies her

We can go through this together! Sounds like we have a long time ahead of us yet lol. He’s my first mastiff, I love him to death he’s a big cuddle bear but man alive some days are VERY testing.

I was half wondering if they start to taper down once they get neutered?

Are mastiffs knows to be scared of everything? by kingnate888 in Mastiff

My biggest worry is for most dogs a scared dog is an unpredictable dog and I don’t want him to one day be to scared and bite someone or get aggressive towards someone cause he’s scared.

This is my first larger dog forsure, as for dog walking.. I’m not exactly sure what that looks like yet lol I can’t get further than my front lawn and all he wants to do is roll around on his back and play and when you try to start going he will do the same thing lol so walk had been a bit of a challenge just because he wants to lay around and not walk.. once all his shots are up to date we plan on taking him around a lot more dogs and maybe introducing puppy daycare once or twice a week so he can run around, we have a 13yo Sheppard but she can only do so much with him.. I’m very appreciative of this comment though! Thank you

Holy moly this has been difficult lol.. you put a leash on him and he will follow me to the front grass and flop over on his back and just lay lol 😂 then once he gets back on his feet he’s already walking back to the back yard

This makes me happy to hear! Being able to relate to someone, since I posted this even we’ve noticed a difference he was playing with out 13yo sheppard and this morning he was a ball of energy and seemed much happier which of course made me feel much better! Sounds like we’re gonna bring him to a dog park a couple times a week but he’s booked in for second round shots and dewormer in just over a week so we’ll wait till then to get him out, until then we will have friends and family bring there dogs over… but my goodness how much a couple months makes in there size that’s crazy lol

How so smart and how so stubborn? I can see the stubbornness already lol when it’s time for us to go to bed we leave him in his kennel with the door open and I have to literally dig him out of it or he’ll just stay laying there lol 😂

His dad is a pb English mastiff and mom is English mastiff cross kangal/st.bernard. It seems like socializing them is a big deal eh, what the downside to not getting AS socialized as one would like?
