Here’s a breed that I don’t believe I have featured on the blog in the past.  Meet Tibetan Mastiff, “Cascade” [GCH Shang-Hai’s Shadow of the Cascades”].  Isn’t he handsome?  The Tibetan Mastiff originated in China around 1100 BC.  They are a member of the Working Group with their primary function being as guardians.  They are very protective of their family and property and are very intelligent and independent.
