Here is the list of breeds that we will list on The Mastiff Connection. This list was carfully complied
after doing much research into the molessor breeds. The breeds listed are either mastiff, of mastiff type, or are direct decendants
to the molessors. Keeping with the fact that Mastiffs are known for their size, we have omitted some breeds because they are
not large enough. Dogs listed must be a MINIMUM of 22 inches at the withers. We have also omitted breeds that are decendants
of the breeds listed, regardless whether they are of mastiff type (eg. the Newfoundland: a decendant of the Tibetan Mastiff)

Boerboel (South African Mastiff)
Bullmastiff
Cane Corso (Italian Mastiff)
Dogo Argentino
Dogue De Bordeaux (French Mastiff)
