Neapolitan Mastiff

Hi,
Please help us. We currently own a beautiful blue Neo (11 months). She is beautiful. Unfortunately, life has some unexpected changes for us which forces us to have to find a good (very good home) for her. This parting is breaking us up.

Yes exactly where are you? Is she spayed and how big is she so far. I have a few places that might be able to place her in a good home. If someone named Jenn Ocpnnor or Stacey Hanson contact you please let me know and do not under any circumstances release her to this woman. She might use other aliases. If you would like you can PM me and I will explain we all know the story of her so dont want to rehash it. How is she with male other dogs. I have a OEM but my last guy was a Neo. She might be good with my boy.

I hear (from the people here) that they are great dogs. I might be interested, but I guess it depends on where you live!

Rachel they are great dogs but I suggest you do some reading about them. If you are a clean freak this is not the dog for you they do drool a lot some less then others but they can be big droolers. We call them slingers cuz they fly when they start shaking their heads. Read some of this stuff on them they are a giant breed but they do not require a huge place to live.

why?

Why in God's name would I private message a complete stranger with my phone number? Sorry but I can't even begin to understand that request.

I have only one concern/question

I asked this earlier and have yet to get an answer.......... why a Neo Mastiff??
The final comment about everyone wanting one really bugs me because if this is the reason for getting one then it is one of the worst I have heard.
Any mastiff owner can tell you that they are not a dog for just anyone.......... and probably would do better with an experienced owner, even their size can be a determining factor as to whether or not the owner can handle them.
Could someone please tell me if it has been determined as to why a NEO?

I am just concerned that this dog will be a "fad" and that there has not been enough research done on this breed to fully understand what the owner is getting into.

I know that Shyla is up for adoption and that she has even been mentioned to this person, I just wonder if I missed something somewhere.
