I can't get enough of these pics. Even though I just got my first american mastiff puppy, my first love will always be my strongest... the rottie.
Why thank you!  These are my first long term Rotties! And I'm really pleased with our choice. I can't get over how sweet they are and don't understand why people shutter to look at them. Magnus is a cutie pie too!   I love watching the Mastiffs on the dog shows. They are just massive and handsome puppies. They make my pups looks small.
Because most of the human race, with all its self-glorification and pseudo-intellect, still doesn't comprehend the fact that if dogs were not so adept at mastering our body language we'd be in deep, since some of us get in their faces - which is basically saying "Up yours!" in dog language...and every once in a while someone gets offended. When it's a chihuahua it's a chip, but when it's a rottie it's the entire rotund cheek that sloughs off.
But really...we can probably blame it on the media and a other mobs of dumb people.
