Hello My name is Kim. Today my fiance' and I decided to go for it and finally bought a Neapolitan Mastiff. He has wanted one for 15 years and I have wanted an English Mastiff for five years. We both have done research on the breed and seem comfortable with the general idea of caring for him. That being said any advice is welcome. He is a beautiful baby boy and I am already in love with him. He is eight weeks old and huge. I have had experience on their size at the vet's office we have a couple English Mastiffs that we see. But I did not realize my eight week old baby would take up more than my lap. He gives the best kisses and so far seems to get along with everyone. A little more about me I have three beautiful step children, all over the age of ten, I am momma so I am the primary care giver for my baby. I am currently in school to be a Veterinary Tech. I work as a Vet. Asst. right now. We have two small dogs, a chihuahua and a scotty. I look forward to meeting all of you and hopefully gaining knowledge from all of you.

Welcome and congrats. Great looking litle guy. Just have to be safe around your 2 small dogs that he does not play too rough or step on them down the road. We have a 10 month old Cane Corso and 3 yorkies.

His name is Rigby and I am so proud of him. I never realized how true all of the information online could be especially the drool. I now have Rigby's towel in most rooms. We wipe his face a lot. We have managed to get him outside for potty except once so far. He acts very goofy but I honestly think he is really smart. He almost slept through the night last night. Hoping for another good one. Only thing that worries me is this contract we are in for his health. He started with a runny nose this a.m. and some sneezing. My doctor that I work for is not the breeders vet. She is only claiming to cover the office visit and Baytril as an antibiotic. My doctor will not give Baytril because it can cause joint problems if given to a dog before they are completely done growing. Hands down he is not taking Baytril and we will be treating him with what my doctor recommends. I will call her tomorrow to tell her. I hope she can understand. Other than that we are great. No complaints. Enjoying my play time and cuddles are the best.
