Dogue de Bordeaux
The Dogue de Bordeaux, Bordeaux Mastiff, French Mastiff or Bordeauxdog is a large French mastiff breed—and one of the oldest French dog breeds. A typical brachycephalic molossoid type breed, the Bordeaux is a very powerful dog, with a very muscular body.
Temperament: Affectionate, Loyal, Courageous
This dog breed‘s most famous member co-starred with Tom Hanks in the 1989 movie, Turner and Hooch. Loyal, self-assured, and territorial, the Dogue de Bordeaux requires lots of training and socialization.
The first thing you’ll notice about the DDB, as they’re sometimes known, is that massive head. You may also spot a bit of slobber hanging out of their mouth. Dogs of this breed may seem intimidating at first, and they will indeed protect their homes and families if they’re called to do so. But generally, these pups remain docile and have sweet dispositions. Don’t be fooled, though. This breed’s stubborn side means they need experienced pet parents who will keep up with consistent training. If you can do that, you’ll have a loving, faithful companion!
