The History of Molosser Dogs

Molosser is a category of large, solidly-built dog that includes several breeds, probably all descended from the same root stock. The name derives from Molossia, a subregion of ancient Epirus, ancient Greece, where the large shepherd dog was known as the Molossus.

Highest bite force I've heard is from a kangal of Sivas Line which bit at 743 lbs of bite force. Som

Angel the Tibetan Mastiff being sweet

Do not get a Tibetan Mastiff just because Angel is cute! Tibetans are difficult dogs, they bark a lot in certain situations. We've had the cops called on us because of her barking.

She has broken out the yard a few times as well. She is very stubborn too. The fact that I have been able to teach her to sit, lay down, roll over, and most impressively f
