Being new to the mastiff breed I have a few questions, wonder if they are Fila traits/behavior, mastiff in general or "just" Luke.
Luke is the most "Velcro" dog I ever had, he has to be in the same room, can get a little annoying, lol. He will not stay outside unless I'm out there with him.
He is single coated, no undercoat at all, know the EM has undercoat so is that from the Fila side? or...
He is very very vocal, if he want something he will bark and will not quit. Stubborn!
He uses his front legs like arms a lot, will pounce the cat and hold her with his "arms". The cat does not appreciate it! If we are playing with a toy and I tell him "drop it", he will, but will put his paw on it as soon as I reach for the toy.
He has very "long" wrists, the dewclaw and "thumb" are far apart.
He is developing a lot of loose skin from neck down to between the front legs. His butt is still higher then his shoulder.
Luke is still super friendly/social, did
put him on the scale at work today, 116lbs at 7 1/2 months.
