RELATIONSHIP WITH CHILDRENS The pyrenean mastiff likes the company of childrens, to whom he considers a companion of games. He's affectionate and patient, also accepting without any problem the friends of his "small masters".
	RELATIONSHIP WITH OTHER DOGS The pyrenean mastiff coexists well with other dogs. In the photo Bogart de Can Cabot with Lord, an eight years old Golden Retriever. In our cottage two small racially mixed dogs share space with mastiffs like one more of them. In addition, when some of the mastiffs enter in the house they find our cats that take a walk calmly around them.

TAKEN CARE OF PYRENEAN MASTIFF

Feeding: The best feeding for our pyrenean mastiff is the dry food. We recommend to use a Premium quality. With this feeding our dog will not need any extra contribution vitamins or mineral complexes, as good quality dry food has all the necesary nutrients. It is specially important to take careof the feeding during the growth of the dog, that in pyrenean mastiff extends until 18 months old. We should think that the puppy that we take home will reach 70 or 80 kilos, reason why these fast growth requires mainly of a very balanced feeding with attention to its bones and joints. In order to avoid the feared torsions of stomach, we follow the following steps:
- To place the bowls to a sufficient height so that the dog does not have to crouch to eat.
- To distribute the daily portion in two takings (in the morning and at night)
- Never let make exercise to our dogs after eating (not even the daily walks)

Health: If we follow the above advice for a correct feeding of our pyrenean mastiff, the visits to the veterinarian will be limited to the scheduled inspections. The vaccines must be repeated every year during all the life of the dog and in addition we will give him a deworming medication every six months.

Groomming: Pyrenean mastiff does not need any special groomming. Normally two annual baths will be enough. In order to conserve the hair in optimal conditions we must brush it once at week, with an appropriate brush for lon hair dogs. During the dumb time a good brush will facilitate the elimination of dead hair and will favors the growth of the new one.
