Hello,

Does anyone on this message board own, like, love, or know what a Neapolitan Mastiff (is)? If anyone does, please reply, I have not been able to find anyone anywhere except at dog shows that knows, owns, likes, or loves Neapolitan Mastiffs.;)

Hi Karen,

Do you own any kind of mastiff? Would you mind if I emailed you (IF NOT, WHAT IS YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS?) and added you to my Pet Talk buddy list?

I know what they are quite well but I don't own one. There is one that frequents our dog park. I didn't think they were that rare anymore. Do you have one?

WOW, Neo.s eh? Well, I know them, one frequents our boarding kennels. Big, beautiful, Gentle Giants. Wow, do you own one? Are you looking to get one? Have you researched the breed and fell in love? Or just curious? LOL, well, hope you find someone, you should try searching yahoo, for Neo. breeders.

I was attacked by one LOL. I do like the breed though. I bathed one just two weeks ago. I also saw some at a recent dog show.

I absolutly love them. I have only met them at one show, though. I know how hard they are to breed, but I with to have one in the future, preferably mahogany.

Yes, I certinly do have Neos, 3 of them. I rescue them, although I do not own a rescue.

Ive had Neos since I was born!! Of course I love them!!~~LOL

How can you say LOL after being attacked by a dog? Your one brave person to still like the breed, good for you and your good temper!! I was attacked by a golden retriever and have never looked at one with likeness or love again.

WOW!! You're going to have a Neo later? If you would like to know about them feel free to email me, [email protected] , I'll give you all the info you'll need.

Thanks for replying. I look forward to hearing back from yall.

I don't have a Neo but I have an English Mastiff. His name is Bon and he's just a bit over a year old.

I don't own any dog right now, just my wee brown bunny! :)

Sure, you can email me through my Pet Talk profile, that's easiest! :)

Of course I have some pictures of my mastiffs, I'll just have to find them!! Muffasuh, Shilo, and Raisin are the names of the Neos I have right now, but the pound called me and told me they had another Neo, so I may have another one by the end of the day!! There are lots of Neos in WA, and lots end up at the pound. Some they think are pit bulls, and call me and tell me they are going to put the Neo to sleep if I dont come get it-that's where I got my brown neo, Shilo, and my Neo pup, Raisin.

It seems that the 50some purebred and mixed neos on petfinder come from about 5 main states. I'll bet there's a bad breeder selling their pups to just anybody in all of those states. Not a concern in the world of what happens to their rare money-making breed. It makes me so angry:mad: I'm glad you are there to rescue them. I'd never be able to feed that many huge bellies.

Unfortunatley Neos are the new trend in millers these days. :mad: :( There is a pet store that is really nice other than they sell whatever breeds or crosses are "in fashion" and they have had Griffons and Neos latley:(

I think they are adorable. Wasn't the dog in Harry Potter a Neo? Maybe that's why they are getting more popular with the breeders in the past few years.

Thanks, I got him from a breeder in Indiana.

Wow, a breeder in India? That's a far ways from where I live.

I am glad yall like Neos, they are great dogs

I hate how puppy mills breed dogs so cruely

Neos are getting poular in backyard breeding

Thank you for talking with me- I look forward to hearing more from you all

In the books Fang is just described as a boarhound. In the movies they use a blue (grey) natural eared and tailed Neo, yes.

I think you are talking about a signature. There are many people on this board willing to make them for you and more than happy to. You just need to post pictures of your dog(s). I know Lexi Lover is taking requests for signatures right now. You can find her thread about it under General.:D

I adore neos! They are so cute, yet large! I don't have any, and probably never will, but, I love those big fuzzballs of love!

How do you make a signature so I can show you the pictures?
You don't have to make a sig! All you do is get an account in photobucket or image station: http://www.imagestation.com or http://www.photobucket.com

Then after you create an account, you have to upload pics onto it (I can't do that, but I am sure that you can pm someone!) When you get the pics uploaded onto your account, then look on your tool bar and it has a http:// and @ and an IMG sign there. Hit IMG, and after you have copied the adress from the pic (you have to right click on the pic and scroll down to properties, then copy the web adress) Paste the adress into the IMG box, and you pic will come up on your post. After that is figured out, you can pm one the three listed above, and they will make you a sig! After that, you need a photobucket account. When you need help with your sig showing up, I can help you with that later...

Good Luck!-
Steph and Jes

ps. Congrats on the new Neo, what is its name?
