Pyrenean Mastiffs are large dogs of above-average size, muscular builds, and firm bone structures. Despite their large, strong bodies, they never look heavy or sluggish.
Group: Herding
Lifespan: 10–13 yr
Height:
28–32 in
Weight: 120–240 lb
Brush Pyrenean Mastiffs every few days to prevent mats and tangles and reduce shedding. These dogs will need daily brushing during semi-annual “shedding seasons.” A de-shedding tool can help remove their undercoats in the spring and fall. Pyrenean Mastiffs also need regular nail trims, ear cleanings, and a dental care routine, including at-home tooth brushing and professional dental cleanings.
Pyrenean Mastiffs have powerful, robust, rectangular bodies with muscular backs, broad, deep chests, and pronounced withers. Their strong, flexible tails are set medium-high and are thick at the root with soft hair that forms a plume.
Always visit a professional veterinarian if you believe your dog may have health issues.
