@trevanismith ..thank you! She passed away May 2010 at the age of 15.5 yrs old...I still miss her terribly.

Thanks Sirseigan. I cannot imagine life without them. We have puppies right now and talk about rejuvenating the soul!!

Arjan, I would love to hear more about your 14+ yr old bitch and male. Can you share their pedigrees? Where did you get them? Do you have any pics/photos to share?

They certainly are powerhouses if you don't start early with getting them to respond to collar pressure. My male is very powerful but I show him so he responds to his collar placed high up on his neck and slight pressure.

Markdon, do you have some videos up? Or a website? would love to see your TM!

What type of guard dog? There are bark alarm types; size can also deter as well. What exactly are you thinking of when asking if a good guard dog? =)

If they are well socialized and raised with other animals including other dogs, they are pretty good about it. But of course, each dog is individual and you have a better chance of them getting along if they are sterilized (male or female).

No, she unfortunately died May 2010, making her 15.5 yrs old, bless her soul, she was my doggy soulmate.

Yes, our particular dogs have ranged from 9.5 yrs up to 15.5 yrs of age but average is about 12.

Among the Molosser group and 100+ pound dogs in general, this breed and some only other breeds would have an avg. life expectancy of up to 15 years

Do TMs get along well with other dogs usually?

And is the old girl still alive?

My boy and girl Charlie (Boy) and Danii (Girl) are so beautiful! They are rescue dogs so they were cheap but money didnt matter to us! What is the name of your tibetan mastiff?

[L1lyK0]
