For centuries Tibetans have assumed that one type of dog, the Tibetan Mastiff, is holy. Tibetan Mastiffs have large heads and long hair.. Their big bodies give them the appearance of a lion. The Tibetan Mastiff is the most unsafe and aggressive dog in the world.
Tibetans also think that the Mastiff carried Buddha to reincarnation.
The Tibetan Mastiff is famous for its commitment, giant body, and assertive personality. But the Mastiff wasn't born aggressive. When Tibetan Mastiff's are weaned, they're placed outside in a rectangular ditch manufactured by stone. The ditch is deep enough that the Mastiff will never be in a position to jump out. The painful weather joined with the torture of hunger torture these dogs. The Mastiff will be fed only a tiny piece of raw meat. However , the ditch becomes smaller and smaller for the Mastiff as their body grows bigger and bigger.
finally, the owner will take them out of the stone ditch. The Mastiff by that point has become terribly grumpy. At this time, the owner does not need to protect them from wolves and other wild animal. The owners feed the Mastiffs many small pieces of beef each day. Sometimes wolves will howl and stand at the top of the well and attempt to take the Mastiff's food. At the beginning, the Mastiff buries his head under his paws and tries to hide from the wolves. Finally, it will start to bark at the wolves to protect itself and food. The Mastiff will scratch the stone ground really hard and try and get out of the well to attack the wolves. Its personality becomes terribly aggressive and cruel due to the sour environment. The Mastiff starts to have the will to attack and conquer. When the Mastiff is released from the stone well, the owner will release it to a grouping of other dogs. They attack the mastiff. The mastiff uses its powerful pawns from digging in the stone well and their sharp teeth to fight back. By this time the Mastiff's character is much closer to a wolf. The owner feeds the Mastiff some wolf meat when it is truly hungry. By feeding training the Mastiff to be angry and feeding it wolf beef the Mastiff treats wolves as the natural enemy in the wild. The Mastiff becomes a fierce guard-dog who will protect the herd.
There are only about twenty pure breed Mastiffs in the states and ten in Taiwan today. They're not as assertive as trained, pure breed Mastiffs. The training drill of Tibetan Mastiffs is extraordinarily unique and philosophical.
