"Whatever the case, he’s now a big, strong, dashing Bullmastiff with issues – particularly when it comes to other pets or strangers. He tries to tell people through his dilated pupils, yawning, panting, pacing, lip licking, and other cues. But no one has yet to catch on before he feels the need to act."
"The result? Three bite incidences during his life."

I am as good with Working Breeds as anyone I know, but there is no way I would adopt a dog with that resume'.

Maybe the dog could go to a ranch, or some property with wide-open spaces.

An out-of-control dog of that size is a nightmare that rarely goes away. Mastiff's are extraordinarily sensitive and, once in motion, are very difficult to contain.
