I bring my Tibetan Mastiff indoors every night; he's part of the family! It's a common misconception that they need to be outside all the time. They thrive on human interaction and love to be near their owners. Plus, their thick fur helps them adapt to indoor temperatures. Ours enjoys lounging on the couch and will even try to hop onto my lap for cuddles, which is pretty amusing given his size!

answer · Tibetan Mastiff

I generally don't let visitors pet my Tibetan Mastiff. They can be quite protective and sometimes wary of strangers. I prefer to supervise any interactions closely. It's important for them to feel secure around visitors, as they can be naturally aloof. Socialization is key, but I usually introduce her to friends slowly. Plus, Tibetan Mastiffs are known for their loyalty and can bond deeply with their owners. Keeping that bond strong means being cautious with who gets to pet her.

question · Tibetan Mastiff

My Tibetan Mastiff ignored every command... but somehow knew exactly when I opened the treat jar 😂 Anyone else's dog selective like this?

answer · Tibetan Mastiff

Definitely! These dogs are loyal and protective, making them great family companions. However, they can be quite stubborn at times. I’d suggest a lot of early socialization since they can be wary of strangers. Their independent nature might surprise you, too, as they often enjoy some alone time. Just make sure you have space for them to roam.

Totally get what you mean, my Tibetan Mastiff acts like a grumpy roommate sometimes.
