Mastiff questions?

Do they shed... YES!! Even though they are short haired,  the dogs themselves are huge and 5 times the size of a  small breed,... so 5 times the dog hair.

Do they slobber?  YES, YES, YES, YES LOL  

Are they friendly with children?   Amazing with children!!  Ours are raised with our son and we have a nephew that is always here and he cuddles the doggies on the floor while playing with his toys.

Can they Guard?   Yes, we used to have rotti's and I must say they guard quite differently . Mastiffs seem to block strangers from you all with a cute face yet.. make no mistake they are protecting.   They do bark if someone is at house but not normally for any other reason.  They don't show aggression but are large enough.. they just don't have too LOL

Do they eat alot?  OMG YES!!  Food bill is definitely a consideration when you purchase a mastiff!

 How big will they get?  It ranges but  Girls around 150-190, males 150-210lbs.  Currently our female is about 160lbs and our male is only a year old and is about 150.  He has lots of growing still to do.
