Description
I love the giant breeds! Even though I am rather small in stature. Gentle but protective and always loyal in the best sense. One of the biggest dogs recognized by the American Kennel Club, the massive Mastiff loves being around people and is known to bond closely with his 'family.' A combination of grandeur and good nature as well as courage and docility, he was bred in England and used as a watchdog for more than two thousand years. The breed's short coat can be fawn, apricot or brindle.

He seemed so at home on that rambling farm. I was reminded of the old English estates where these dogs roamed protecting the masters property. South Dakota is very rocky. Made for some interesting horse photos too. :-)

Nice portrait.
Fran J Scott replied:
Thank you Norman!! I took this photo in the Black Hills of South Dakota. He was such an impressive boy I'll never forget him.
