Pyrenean Mastiff?
« on: April 05, 2007, 02:18:03 pm »
Anyone ever seen one of these in person? I just came across them in doing some other dog breed searches and I love them! They look a lot like Pyrs but have a more droopy cheeked looked and they are always masked. Apparently they come from the Pyr and the Spanish Mastiff, and are also flockguards, just BIGGER. They aren't recognized by the AKC apparently.


Height:
Dogs: minimum 77 cm (30 ins)
Bitches: minimum 72 cm (28 ins). Greater height is usual and preferred

Weight:
54.5 - 79 kg (120 - 175 lbs). Dogs being heavier and more massive than bitches

and i read somewhere else a weight of 175-190  :o :o

Very nice looking, but am I the only one who thinks that the head reminds me of a St Bernard?  Especially the top picture.

Yeah there are some pics I've seen that remind me of them a little, but not most. The top pic is a puppy too.

I can't find breeders/puppies anywhere, they must be a rare breed.
