The American Bandog Mastiff is a sweet, docile hybrid dog that has roots well cemented in the Mastiff, American Bulldog, and Pit Bull. These dogs tend to grow to a significant size and they become strong for their size. Thus, choose one wisely and you will find you have a friend for life. If you've never owned a dominant dog before, you may consider a different breed. These large, beautiful dogs can grow from about 85 pounds for a small female to 140 or so pounds for a large male.

There are roots, history, and a present reputation in the dog fighting world for these sweet dogs. Confined mostly to the Eastern Seaboard, their popularity as a fighting dog is not high and thus the breeding standards remain positive when it comes to creating the docile, adoring dog that they really are. Go through a reputable breeder or rescue group. These dogs are loyal and loving, and fighting them is simply cruel. They simply want to be with you and accept your loving affection.

As wonderful as these dogs can be, they simply aren't for everyone. You need to be sure that you can be a good leader that can come through with strong, consistent communications. The American Bandog Mastiff will take the leadership role if you don't but make no mistake about it, he doesn't want it. He needs order in his pack and therefore can step up as leader. As your leader, imagine how he might express his frustration while you are out of sight at work every day.

Giving your American Bandog Mastiff mental challenges is important. He requires mental stimulation as well as physical stimulation. While they tend to be a bit of a lazy bones inside, take him out and he will be ready for anything. He loves to play, is easily socialized, and can play gently with children.

Without social interaction with other dogs you can expect to end up with a dog aggressive animal. This can lead to terrible consequences and thus you will need to ensure that you give him regular social interaction as well as substantial guidance. The emotional and physical exercise that he receives from socializing with other dogs will also help keep him a much happier creature.

When you decide on an American Bandog Mastiff you are essentially committing 8 to 12 years of your life to being a strong leader, able and ready to give proper exercise and socialization, and give your dog a happy life. Those most suitable for the breed are lovers of and successful humans of dogs such as the German Shepherd, the Pit Bull, the Rottweiler, and the Mastiff.

You will love their ability to be gentle, and their devotion to children is nearly unparalleled. Gentle behavior is in their nature when around a child or smaller animal. You may have to experience a little drooling with these guys, but it is not excessive.

The American Bandog Mastiff is a great choice for dog owners that know how to be a leader and want a friend that is loyal and faithful to the entire family. He will protect and guard with his life if necessary. He is strong, loving, and lives to make you happy.
