A little about the Tibetan Mastiff
This breed is and undoubtedly loyal protector of their family. An independent disposition means they are strong-willed and may be stubborn. This breed belongs with an experienced dog owner, who can establish strong leadership ability. This powerful the dog is surprisingly sensitive and will intervene to protect where they see fit. A quick learner, the Tibetan Mastiff is not motivated to please you, so much as to protect you. They will get along with other pets and children if they are raised with them but will command respect.
