Neapolitan Mastiff

This ancient breed can be traced back to Egypt, Persia, Mesopotamia, and Asia to the dogs of war for the Roman Army. The Neapolitan Mastiff's strong appearance makes them a great defender. This massive breed weighs between 110 and 150 pounds and stands at 24 to 31 inches tall. Well-bred and socialized dogs do well with families, but are protective around strangers.
