Description
Dog Breed: Mastiff (short coat). Sampson has currently been staying with us over at Big Dog Run and let me tell you we have fallen in LOVE??. Sampson is as big of a gentle giant as one can get. With his calm demeanor and loving personality Sampson makes for the perfect 100lb lap dog??. When you approach his kennels he will greet you with the biggest smile on his face and a little wiggle dance????. Sampson has been socialized around a plethora of dogs over at Big Dog Run and has done phenomenal with all dogs of different sizes and energy types. Sampson hasnât met a person or dog he does not love??. Sampson loves to be around his people but also does very well being independent and left alone. Sampson is currently working on some leash manners and is doing very so very well! Sampson is a mild to low energy dog that would do well with only a couple walks a day (and maybe 20 minutes of his favorite game.. FETCH??) and grazing into your eyes in complete admiration for the rest????. Overall Sampson is as perfect as perfect gets!! This boy would do well in many different household types!

Overview:
The Mastiff, an ancient and noble breed, boasts a history stretching back millennia, often linked to the Molosser dogs of antiquity. Renowned for their immense size, these gentle giants are characterized by their powerful, muscular build, broad head, and short, dense coat typically seen in fawn, apricot, or brindle. Despite their imposing appearance, Mastiffs are famous for their remarkably calm and gentle temperament, making them surprisingly affectionate and devoted companions. They generally get along well with children and other pets, provided they are properly socialized from a young age. While their size might suggest a need for vast spaces, their relatively low energy levels mean they can adapt to apartment living if given regular, moderate exercise. Prospective owners should be aware of common health concerns such as hip and elbow dysplasia, bloat, and eye conditions, necessitating responsible breeding and veterinary care. Their loyalty and protective instincts, combined with their loving nature, make the Mastiff a truly magnificent addition to the right family.
