Neapolitan Mastiff pups

2 Female Neo pups 4 sale I have two almost 11 month old Neo pups for sale both are fully vaccinated, wormed and microchipped. One is around 40kg and the other around 45kg. They have basic training of sit and come. They have been raised with my children and other dogs one being a pug, we have chickens on the property, so have been around them, but not free running. The only reason I still have the pups is I was holding one back because she had a rash and did not want to send her to her new home until it had fully cleared and the other girl had to have surgery on her eyes as her bottoms eyelashes were inwards, it was done, but Before they were ready to go I had family drama and did not have the time to reply to people or place a new add or anything. They are both very loving dogs. One is a bit more energetic then the other. You will need to do more training and socialising with them. They will make fantastic family pets and guards dogs as they have learnt from the older dogs to let you know when something or someone is near. I have both parents you can meet.

The Ultimate Neapolitan Mastiff Guide

About Neapolitan Mastiff

Neapolitan Mastiffs, also called Mastinos or Neos, are large, powerful dogs with roots in ancient Rome.

Renowned for their massive size, muscular build, and distinctive wrinkled skin, they appear fearsome but are loyal companions.

Their thick, wrinkly skin, folding over their entire body, adds to their unique and intimidating look.

Grooming

This breed has a short coat that requires brushing 1-2 times a week.

Origins

Neapolitan Mastiffs, an ancient breed, trace their origins to the Mediterranean, specifically Southern Italy around Naples.

The ancient Romans bred them to protect livestock and property from predators and thieves.

Believed to descend from the Tibetan Mastiff and other Molosser-type dogs of Asia Minor, they may also have mingled with local herding dogs in Southern Italy.

These dogs once hunted, guarded, pulled carts, fought, and attended bullfights, earning a reputation as powerful guard dogs.

Nearly extinct after World War II, breeder Dr. Piero Scanziani revived the breed in the 20th century, creating a standard based on his observations.

Modern Neapolitan Mastiffs, though more docile due to selective breeding, retain their ancient qualities and serve as loyal companions and guardians.

Key Characteristics Of Neapolitan Mastiffs

Are Neapolitan Mastiffs Family-Friendly?

Yes, Neapolitan Mastiffs are generally family-friendly. They form strong bonds with their owners and protect them fiercely.

They can be good with children if socialised and trained properly, though their immense size and strength make them unsuitable for first-time dog owners.

Common Health Issues & Considerations

Neapolitan Mastiffs may suffer from:

Cherry eye

A condition where the gland of the third eyelid prolapses, becoming visible as a red, swollen mass in the corner of the eye.

Periodontal disease

Bacterial infections

Nature / Temperament

Dignified, Loyal, Watchful, Relaxed, Loving

Suitable Environment

Neapolitan Mastiffs need ample space to move and play. They thrive in homes with large areas where they can roam and stretch out.

Their size makes apartment living difficult, though they remain couch potatoes indoors.

Other Considerations

  • Neapolitan Mastiffs can be lazy, requiring motivation to exercise.
  • They may struggle with stairs, especially when young.
  • Prevent young puppies from excessive jumping or stair climbing until fully developed.

How can I take good care of my Neapolitan Mastiff?

Nutrition

Neapolitan Mastiff puppies need a premium diet with high-quality protein, healthy fats, and carbohydrates.

Monitor portion sizes to prevent obesity and ensure a slow rate of weight gain to avoid joint issues. Provide clean, fresh water at all times.

Puppies generally eat three to four meals a day during the first six months, transitioning to two meals a day afterward. Consult your veterinarian for specific dietary recommendations.

Grooming

Neapolitan Mastiffs require regular grooming to maintain their health and coat. Regular brushing prevents matting and removes dirt, while bathing keeps their wrinkly skin healthy.

Exercise

Ensure your Neapolitan Mastiff receives enough exercise and mental stimulation to prevent boredom and destructive behaviour. Start physical activity slowly to avoid injury due to their large size.

Training

Neapolitan Mastiffs require an experienced owner with patience and dedication.

Early and consistent socialisation, training, and exercise are essential. Use positive reinforcement, such as food rewards or verbal praise, to encourage desired behaviours.

Avoid harsh corrections or punishments, as these sensitive dogs respond poorly to them. Set realistic expectations, understanding some behaviours may take longer to master.

Consider enrolling your Mastiff in puppy training classes that use positive reinforcement methods.

This information is general and should not be used for adoption or purchasing decisions. Consult an expert for detailed care and requirements of the breed.

Most Asked Neapolitan Mastiff Questions

No, Neapolitan Mastiff puppies should not live outdoors. They are a large breed and are susceptible to extreme temperatures. They need to be kept in a warm, comfortable environment and ideally should live indoors as a part of the family.

Housetraining a Neapolitan Mastiff puppy can be a challenging task due to their large size and stubborn nature. The key is to start early and be consistent with your training methods. Establish a routine, use positive reinforcement, reward good behaviour and remain patient throughout the process. It is also important to keep in mind that these puppies may take longer than other breeds to learn and understand new commands, so you should be prepared for the occasional accident!

Your first stop for a Neapolitan Mastiff for sale should be reputable breeders with a good deal of experience in breeding them. Neapolitan Mastiff puppies from good breeders will end up better behaved and longer-lived than otherwise. The average cost of a Neapolitan Mastiff for sale is typically between AUD $1500 and $5000.
