I still miss my OEM (Old English Mastiff). She never let me out of her sight. I could clean the barn and coop and do my chores knowing she had my back.
I am also an English Mastiff lover, this is my boy, have to keep him on a leash at my friends house, he gets a little excited when playing with his small kids and tends to knock them over as he thinks he only weighs about 5lbs lol.
