Hi everyone,
As a matter of interest, does anyone know which of the mastiff type breeds (eg. PMD, Mastiff, Dogue de Bordeaux, Newfoundland etc etc) has the longest lifespan? We were surprised to read that Great Danes and St Bernards only have an average lifespan of 6-9 years. We've read about why this is, but we were wondering if any of these breeds have a longer lifespan?
Thanks
Kathy

Hiya,
A bit of info for you from Aprils 'your dog'
Mastiff - Up to 10 yrs
Dogue de Bordeaux - 9-15 yrs
Neapolitan mastiff - Up to 9 yrs
Cane Corso - 9-11 yrs
Not sure about Newfies and PMD's though...sorry, someone else will probably come along who knows...
HTH
