Pyrenean Mastiff Size, Temperament, Lifespan, and Price
Pyrenean Mastiff is a large dog breed derived from the Pyrenees mountains in northeastern Spain. They are fluffy-haired dogs regarded as the oldest and rarest dog breed dating back around 3000 years. They are also large guardian-type dogs that protect livestock from predators like bears and wolves. Pyrenean Mastiffs were traditionally used to protect flocks throughout the yearly emigration to high summer pasture in the Pyrenees. They are also called Mostin, Gos ramader, Mastín del Pirineo, Mostín d'o Pireneu, and Mastí dell’Aragó.
