According to record books the English Mastiff breed is the largest dog in the canine family. The largest dog recorded weighed in at 353 pounds. You would think a dog that big is a tough mean dog. In reality the Mastiff is a docile and proud well natured animal who loves their owners and will protect them for life.

Mastiff training is important and should be started when the mastiff is still a puppy. It also helps if you first define certain training goals that must be achieved before you can say with confidence that your mastiff is properly trained. It is important that the training of a mastiff means that after some time your mastiff knows what he should be doing and also what he should not be doing. You must also ensure putting your goals down in writing and then you should hang these written goals on a wall so that you can see at a glance what you should be doing and also how many of the goals you have set are being achieved.
