My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Miss Anita found herself abandoned in her owner's garage when they moved. Several neighbors rallied around her to help her find a new home and family. A couple took her in to try and find her the right home on social media. That didn't work, so they reached out to Mastino Rescue, Inc., to help and find her a home. Anita has been spayed and on 8/13/24 she had her cherry eye surgery removal. Anita is a great girl, loves her previous male foster but it took a couple days for her to warm up to her previous female foster. She will need decompression time to settle into a new home successfully. After slow introductions, she did start playing with her male foster Neo brother when she was in Arizona.

If you are looking for a beautiful tawny girl and have the time/patience for Anita, please go to our website at Mastino-rescue-inc.org and complete a family profile. Anita is currently in boarding in Missouri.

Additional adoption info

Our rescue is breed-specific to the Neapolitan Mastiff, and while this breed is amazingly unique, it is certainly not for everyone. We want to ensure every dog's next home is truly FOREVER, so we are very careful with our placements.

* Due to same sex-aggression being so common among bully breeds, we do not place Neos in homes with another bully breed of the same sex (they must be opposite sex).

* Due to insurance and liability purposes, we do not adopt to families with children under 10-years old living in the home.

* We strongly prefer our adopters to have a secure fenced yard (no electric fences), but we do make a few exceptions.

* You must own your own home (no renters, please).

* Previous guardian breed experience is strongly preferred

We are a foster-based rescue, and our dogs are spread out across the USA, so we do not have adoption events.
