The Neapolitan Mastiff Wants to Keep Everyone Safe

If you're looking for a dog that can be a family companion and has a guarding instinct, the Neapolitan Mastiff can be a great fit for your house. These ancient dogs were bred to guard homes in central Italy as their massive heads may scare possible invaders. Though their charms are charming and loving, their tremendous weight makes them prone to unintentionally knock family members off their feet. All the same, they are quite loving and enjoy being kissed and cuddled. In the end, the Neapolitan Mastiff is a great and devoted family dog if size is not a big concern and enough room exists for every member of the family.
