An ancient, imposing guardian breed from the Himalayan highlands, the Tibetan Mastiff was developed to protect monasteries and nomadic camps from predators including snow leopards and wolves. They are independent, strong-willed, and deeply territorial, with a thick, lion-like mane and a nocturnal guarding instinct that reflects centuries of working in remote, harsh environments.
