Deep within the rugged terrains of Spain’s northern region lies the origin of a dog breed that has stood the test of time – the Pyrenean Mastiff. This breed, with its roots tracing back to the Middle Ages, was not just bred for strength and loyalty but also for an unwavering courage that made them the guardians of their land and people.

Physical Features:

Pyrenean Mastiffs are large, robust dogs standing between 30 to 31 inches (males) and 25 to 30 inches (females). They carry a hefty weight ranging from 130 to 240 pounds, showcasing their power and stature. Their coat, a medium-length double layer, comes in a palette of colors including white with patches of beige, biscuit, black, golden, gray, brown, or silver.
