I am so so sorry to hear of your loss. I have a sweet, gentle 3 year old Dane/Mastiff mix female from Darlene's lovely Chesty and Lizzie she is THE most wonderful, loving, affectionate, laidback couch potato family dog you could ever ask for. I disagree with the person that said this Dastiff mix is dangerous. Lola has been bitten on the face by a pug and by a chihuaha and she just stands there sweetly. She is very gentle and somehwat of a baby/chicken, yet a lovely watchdog bark and alertness. She allows anyone to look in her mouth, touch her paws, the vet loves how relaxed she is about exams and grooming and she does not protect her foodbowl or growl. She is now 120 pounds and while people guess the Dane part of her first (the merle coloring helps) they know there is something else in her as she is shorter and wider (esp in the head and tail) than a dane and now the brindle from her Daddy is starting to be visible behind the silver of the merle, so its very unusual. Good luck finding another Dastiff. Please let me know where/when you do.
