I have a english mastiff that is 8 months old and already is 100 pounds at least. I got him when he was 2 months old and he was liftable. He is just a big baby. He is gentle when is given food. He gets along with our other dog but does not like cats. He is just a wonderful dog.

Pros: They are very sweet. Most are good with kids other dogs. These dogs are very gentle.

Cons: They slobber alot. Usually do not like cats. Have a loud bark.

My girl s five months old weighing aorund 60 to 70 pounds. she is one of the best dog I ever had. She loves attetion which can get a little anoying sometimes but at night she is calm. I fell in love with the mastiff around 3 years ago when I got my ffirst mastiff she was also female but she died.

Pros: good with other dogs, doesnt bark, the best dog I have ever had.

Cons: there are'nt any I can think of.

Morgin is about 8 years old, and still has a lot of energy. she is so cute and sometimes makes funny faces. This is a great dog to have as a pet and companion, and she does well with our other dog. She is fun to play with but she uses her paws and well i guess you can say slaps you on the leg and it hurts, but she is so cute it is hard to get mad at her.

Pros: Great with kids, scare off people who try to breakinto your house, and they have a cute face.

Cons: eat a lot, and slober a lot.

Our family is on its 5th mastiff. We can not imagine life without one of these gentle giants. However, they do snore, drool, and potty in large quantities. They eat alot, the vet bills are spendy, and when break up in the spring happens we have to shampoo the rugs often. Guess we are just crazy. On the up side I call my male my "snuggy bear", he is there rain ,sleet, snow and heat. The females will spend all day entertaining the children and guests. And when people drive up they often turn around and leave if they are uninvited.Works for us...

Pros: fabulous family dogs

Cons: if you can't take a shaker bottle full of muddy water around your house then this is not the breed for you.

I have my very first English Mastiff Molly. She is only a few months old (born this past May) but she has already stolen the heart of my whole family. I am now inlove with the breed. She is no less than amazing! I have an autistic 5 year old who Molly has become a best friend to. Seeing the two of them play and run has been the biggest blessing in the world!

Pros: Loving, calm, protective

Cons: slober. slober, slober.....and more slober, but well worth it!

My Mastiff, Otis (200 lbs.) is the neighborhood favorite and the heart of my heart. I socialized him a great deal as a puppy and set clear limits and he's great with other people and pets. He listens very well. He's also the most loving creature I've ever known. His emotional intelligence is amazing and he'll be there for anyone who's upset to lay a soft, heavy head on their lap. He's also very playful and silly. the perfect companion!

Pros: Sensitvie and sweet, soft, loving, you never have to be afraid when you've got one around, quick learner, sense of humor

Cons: Slobber (but nothing a few, well placed "drool towels" can't make a minor issue), finding housing with such a large dog, expensive, can't take him on long hikes or runs.

Our brindle English Mastiff Boomer is an amazing dog. He is our first Mastiff, but we were familiar with the breed before. He's an attention hog and we often call him "velcro" cause he always wants to be near you. We love how cuddly he is and how gentle he plays with our nieces and nephews.

Pros: Protective, loving, great with kids and even small dogs, adorable face, cuddly

Cons: Drool, eat a lot

Molly is my 1st english mastiff. I got her 1o months ago after my ADBA passed away. In the short time Molly has been with our family she has become our biggest member. She is great with all 3 of my children and our 2 cats. Even my disabled daughter who is a very small 6 year old is inlove with molls, and I dont think Molly could go an hour without her. This breed is now my fav. These dogs are the best for families, singles, whatever, you will just not find a better more loving, playful, friendly, and protective breed.

Pros: Amazing family dogs, great with children, loving, loyal, and protective

Cons: slobber

We got our first mastiff, Sarge, in 12/2008. Easiest, happy go lucky, great with grand baby. I researched for 6 mths for an x-large breed and he was the one for us. But we lost him at 14mths old, due to a tick disease. After that it wasn't the same. We ended up with his sister, from another liter. She has brought so much joy to our lives. I thought just cause we never had problems with fleas Sarge was ok for a month or two without meds and in October when its getting cold. There never safe ALWAYS have you flea and tick meds. A mistake we paid dearly for.

Pros: Very loyal, great with children, BEST lap dogs, everyone who meets them love them, we dont even mind the slobber

Cons: They eat and eat and eat!!!! This breed is not for everyone they don't relize there size, make sure to be prepared before you get one, not just cause they are big and beautiful.

Bear is now a little over a year old. He weights 170 lbs. almost and isn't overweight. He's a lap dog. To get to go wear he wants you to, he will not bite but grab your arm with his mouth and pull you wear he wants. Gets along great with our bulldog. Very loving breed.

Pros: Protective. Literally places themselves between you and another person who they don't like.

Cons: DROOL! Don't get if you don't want a dog with a terrifying bark because Mastiff's barks are loud, deep, and scary.
