Large Guardians – Big dogs, such as #mastiffs or molossians, were employed as guardians of livestock and villas (domus). Though their appearance was often “grim” to deter intruders, their care and health were carefully considered, as shown in agricultural treatises and archaeological finds.

But the true legacy lives in the heart of the Sardinian people. Iconic breeds such as the Cane di Fonni are rooted in this ancient mosaic. Genetics reveals that the Fonnese #sheepdog is a guardian of ancestral secrets, born from the meeting of sighthounds and #mastiffs.

When you take your #mastiffs to get groomed and one 💩 in the car before you even leave the parking lot!

Fawn, black faced Puck with his head on the cool tiles

Deze Spaanse veehouder leerde leven met de wolf dankzij eeuwenoud middel De oprukkende wolf baart ook veehouders in Spanje zorgen. Een boer in het noordelijke Cerdillo leerde samen te leven door een eeuwenoud middel in te zetten. Ook iets voor Nederland?

De oprukkende wolf baart ook veehouders in Spanje zorgen. Spaanse veehouder Rodríguez Tábara in het noordelijke Cerdillo leerde niet te vechten tegen het roofdier, maar ermee samen te leven, door een eeuwenoud middel in te zetten: mastín-honden. Ook iets voor Nederland? 1/

Here’s a watercolor painting of my dog! 🐶 It perfectly captures his loyal and playful nature. Also, a special mention to my love for mastiffs and golden retrievers! 💕 Art really brings our pets’ personalities to life. #PetArt #Dogs #Mastiffs #GoldenRetrievers #DogsofBluesky

We are under a state of emergency here with Lake Effect snow and more on the way, but perfectly safe inside. Best part of insane snowfall? Doggo zoomies!! #mastiffs #eriesnowstorm #snowmaggedon

My first post and don’t really know if I want to make a theme out of this account! BUT HERE’S TILDA AND GRETA.

My first dog - meet ZaZu the Boerboel! Before him, I've only ever had cats!

Happy Monday, friends! Today's newsletter is a fun one. For the first time EVER, I have a dog! He's a Boerboel (a South African Mastiff) named ZaZu. Previously, I've only ever had cats. Say hey to ZaZu!
