Mastiff

Mastiffs are massive dogs that somehow convinced themselves they’re lap dogs, despite being 130 pounds of pure muscle with a face that looks perpetually disappointed in your life choices. They’re genuinely gentle and low-energy once they’re past puppyhood, which means your main problem won’t be their behavior but rather the drool on your furniture and the fact that they’ll follow you from room to room just to lie down three feet away. Get our Mastiff gear if you own one of these dignified couch potatoes and need the world to understand why your 200-pound dog won’t even bark at the doorbell.
