My name is Brenda and I am owned by 2 Fila Brasileiros and 2 Old English Mastiffs,  I love the Big Paws and Bigger drools.  Will there be a folder for these 2 breeds also?

How cool!!  More photos of these guys please, and the Old English mastiffs too!  I don't know much about them, can you tell us a little bit. 

Welcome to Big Paws!  ;)

And this is what a Fila pup looks like as a pup (Ty Ty was the runt).  He didn't get as big as the typical male Fila but surprised the vet when he topped out at 150 (ok - he was carrying a little holiday weight).  Let me know if you want to see some of his adult pics... so handsome!

What AWESOME looking dogs!!! So impressive looking! I've never seen this breed before. What are their personalities/temperment like?

Fila Brasileiro are a Brazilian Mastiff. They are the national dog of Brazil. They are "personal protection" dogs. Strong dislike to strangers, excellent with family. Not a breed for people who enjoy compnay at their home! ha ha
They are a Rare Breed & are seen in ARBA (American Rare Breed Association) show rings. WWW.arba.org  to see all rare breeds.

Hello Well I have 3 english mastiffs, 2 great danes, and a mutt. One of my female english mastiffs just had a litter of pups the other day.  I dont know if any of them will end up being brindle since they are so young still. If not someday I hope to get a male brindle mastiff. Would be good if there was someone I could just do a even trade with. I think i'm obsessed with dogs. The only bad thing is all my dogs weigh more than me.But I love them all.

i have 1 english mastiff brindle he is a rescue pup and we love him. I also have a long hair german shepherd / collie mix and american staffordshire terrier . I never dreamed of having a mastiff i have done alot of research on mastiffs and they are truly a wonderful breed. i have rescued many different breeds but this breed has won a place in my heart they just keep on loving mine was very shy until he realized he had a loving home and my other 2 are spoiled and love me 2 . Now the mastiff "Bryce" is first to greet me first to everything when the other 2 let him he is my big love bug and i wish i had room for alot more!

I can't wait to tell my sister about this site!! Her, and my brother in law, and my younger brother just went down to tennessee too pick up a 7 year old mastiff, Thery drove down pretty much at the last minute. They are very new too mastiffs, not too mention the fact that he is 7 years old. Any helpful tips would be greatly appreciated... .by the way, she called a few hours agoi, and she said that he is way bigger than what she imagined. She is very happy too finally get him.
