Summary
About Tibetan Mastiff
Ancient Himalayan guardian breed, large and powerful yet agile, with a thick weather‑proof coat and lion‑like mane. Calm indoors but strongly territorial and vocal when guarding. Deeply loyal, independent, aloof with strangers, and best suited to experienced owners.
About Basset Artésien Normand
Medium French scent hound with short legs, long sturdy body and gentle, noble expression. Affectionate, calm at home and sociable with dogs, but driven by scent outdoors. Needs moderate exercise, positive training, secure fencing and regular care for ears, weight, back and joints.
