The Tibetan mastiff, the size of which impresses not only ordinary dog breeders, but also specialists in this field, has existed on the earth for more than 5000 years. It is easy to guess that Tibet is his homeland. But quite often he met in Syria and Arabia.
Even in the photo, the Tibetan mastiff looks impressive and menacing. Meanwhile, historians claim that their ancient ancestors reached the size of a donkey.
Over its long history, the Tibetan mastiff has earned a reputation as a noble and reliable protector and watchman. However, it should be recognized that today such a dog is a special status. The fact is that not everyone can buy a mastiff puppy - they are very expensive. And there is another important reason. Tibetan mastiff, whose dimensions are staggering, is not suitable for maintenance in small urban apartments. To make this mighty dog feel confident and comfortable, she needs a lot of free space for movement, so she is better off living in a country house with a large plot.
This is a very large and strong dog. The Tibetan mastiff has a powerful physique, well-developed muscles. Despite centuries-old communication with people, the mastiff retained independence and independence. Communicating with representatives of this amazing breed, you need to learn to respect their inner freedom and personal space. This dog can hardly be called a gentle friend. Rather, it is a faithful warrior, always on the protection of the family to which he is infinitely devoted. Be sure that he will never let you down if someone from your loved ones is in danger. He will stand to the end and, if necessary, without hesitation, will give his life for you.
The Tibetan mastiff (the sizes of which are indicated in all veterinary reference books) reaches at the withers of seventy-one centimeters and a weight of sixty kilograms. It has a straight, coarse and stiff coat with a dense undercoat. On the tail it is longer. Color black, brown-brown, black with tan, gray and golden.
Tibetan mastiff - a balanced dog with a great psyche. You can entrust him with a small child without fear - this is a very talented “teacher” who knows how to be interesting and fun in the game, and, of course, he can provide your child with maximum safety. It should be noted that the Tibetan mastiff, the size of which is simply colossal, does not pose any danger to animals living in the house, including eternal enemies - cats. It is amusing to observe how these giants gently and reverently relate to other pets.
You are unlikely to be able to buy a purebred Tibetan mastiff puppy in the bird market. To purchase it, you should contact a professional breeder. Having entered the kennel, pay attention to the conditions in which the dogs are kept. The room where the puppies live must be dry, clean and warm. Try to see at least one parent, so you get an idea of how your pet will grow.
