Adopting a Neapolitan Mastiff

Frequently asked questions about acquiring an Neapolitan Mastiff - the pros and cons of adopting versus going through a breeder, and associated costs.

You can adopt a Neapolitan Mastiff at a much lower cost than buying one from a breeder. The cost of adopting a Neapolitan Mastiff is typically $50 to $300. The adoption fee often includes an initial exam, vaccines, microchipping, spay/neuter, and preventatives. 

In contrast, buying a Neapolitan Mastiff from a breeder can be prohibitively expensive. Depending on their breeding, they can cost $1,500 to $5,000.

Neapolitan Mastiff fun facts

Fun Facts:

Neapolitan Mastiffs have dewlaps, or folds of loose skin hanging from the face and jowls especially. This enables them to be very tolerant of pain, which sadly aided in their legacy of being used as fighting dogs, and in baiting bears, jaguars, and bulls.

The Neapolitan Mastiff almost disappeared after World War II, but was revitalized by Italian Dr. Piero Scanziani.

If you're having a Neapolitan Mastiff join your home, you might want to invest in some extra towels! This breed is renowned for a hefty amount of drool.
