Tibetan Mastiff
Mountain livestock protector
A Tibetan Mastiff is a large, heavy-boned guardian dog breed originating in the Himalayas.
Known for their thick double coat, lion-like mane, and protective temperament, they were traditionally used to guard livestock and monasteries.
The Tibetan Mastiff watched the flock with quiet intensity.
They remain independent and territorial, better suited to experienced owners than first-time dog handlers.
