Moose and his boneyard. His version of lego feet bombs he leaves around the house! Its especially awesome when one is hiding under his blanket. 20200905_112305.jpg
He still looks a little upset about the ole snip snip. I think he needs some chicken and rice, my dogs favorite meal! ;Joyful

Lol yeah he is. Just brought him for follow up yesterday and had to drag through the door but he's doing good. Hasnt stopped him from peeing on every tree in the neighborhood either.
And yeah he eats a daily portion of rice. He gets all the leftovers. In fact he won't eat regular dog food anymore unless I fix it up with people food haha. When I try to feed him regular dog food he just looks at me like "Are you serious" and won't touch it.
 
Love the big guys. We have a four year-old Bouvier des Flandres we rescued when he was about one. Zeppelin aka Big Z. We keep him shaved, for his sanity and ours in this hot climate (if you've ever seen a Bouvier with a full coat, they rather resemble a giant Schnauzer). When we first brought him home, his fur was so matted it was creating open sores on his skin.

Whoever hacked his ears off really mutilated them. :( We don't understand the point, since the breeder decided he wasn't show quality due to his over-large size and a few other deviations. So why do it? Meh.

He has a nice "crypt keeper/gargoyle" vibe but is really super sweet. Here he is last year, with his brother. Last time he was weighed he was about 130 lbs:

A few years ago, when we tried to shave him ourselves. This was mid-shave, and our first attempt. He uh...had an interesting look going.

His brindle pattern only emerges with the short coat. Full coat has him resembling a fluffy soot-colored bear-sheep.

I always wanted to work a Bouvier, great dogs, very stable. I saw a female from another agency that worked one. She was tiny and he was above her waist at the shoulder. She literally could have rode him into a call but she had no problems handling him. I doubt her size was much of a issue on the street either.
 
Our big bad moose reindeer. My wife and stepdaughter is constantly harassing this dog i feel so bad lol.

He looks like he is having some fun with it, and over the other thing.

We got trixie the biggest bone I have ever seen for her first holiday present. She was annoyed I was taking a picture before giving her time to rip into it.

Dude it must be a mastiff thing. He doesn't do pictures it very hard to get a good one.
She had to bribe him with a treat:)
 
She kinda looks like she might of done something you haven't discovered yet.
LoL
Lol just look back a tiny bit in the thread. His second knick name is flaps now ;) Wife doesn't like when I call him that though hahahahaha
 
Just lost my English mastiff a couple months ago and our Corso is nearing the end. Not sure what to do next. Raised both from pups at the same time. They are the most loyal dogs I’ve ever had. Boy do they love the ups guy, pizza guy, mailman, in-laws, etc. if they don’t know you they eat you! Do great with my kids!
