Marjorca Mastiff Activity Requirements

The Brazilian Mastiff is a large, strong, and powerful dog that originally served as a guard dog over cattle and property. Today, they are a loving family pet. These dogs are devoted to their owners, but they can be aggressive around strangers. A Brazilian Mastiff will need daily walks or runs to help burn some of their excess energy. While they do not need extremely vigorous activity, they do need regular exercise. If you live in an apartment, your Mastiff will do best with a playpen where he can stretch his legs. While the Brazilian Mastiff can be an aggressive protective dog, they are also an extremely loyal and devoted member of the family. They love nothing more than to spend time with their family. If you are looking for a companion and protector, the Brazilian Mastiff may be right for you.
