Frequently Asked Questions

Are Pyrenean Mastiffs Good Family Dogs?

How Big Do Pyrenean Mastiffs Get?

Males are about 30-32 inches tall and weigh 185-220 pounds; females are slightly smaller. They grow slower than smaller breeds and take over two years to get to full size.

Do They Require Extensive Exercise?
