ALL ABOUT TIBETAN MASTIFF: LOYAL GUARD DOG AND SO MUCH MORE

[@DogumentaryTV]

A MESSAGE FROM DOCUMENTARY TELEVISION Hey guys thanks for watching the videos, to those of you who watch every video, double thanks. You all should know that it's my intention to film every dog breed. The order in which I film them is truly dependent on a lot of different factors, some of which are out of my control. I am a single person producing the content for this channel, so if I don't get to your request immediately, its not that your being ignored. Its a monumental task I'm taking on, please be patient and enjoy the videos as they come. Thanks!

[@Subwoofer101]

Wow, great video! Richard Eichhorn nailed it, nailed it, nailed it. My wife and I just kept giggling through the whole thing as he described our Angel perfectly. On guard dusk till dawn with regular announcements that she is on duty. "Off duty" when away from the home. 20% cat. Acknowledges that you are calling her, but not particularly motivated to come. Not impressed with the human "antics" of ball throwing. Doesn't look for trouble, but zero fear with threats. More of a supervisor than a subordinate, almost in a military sense. She takes her job seriously, and gets irritated if you don't respect that. Annoyingly and endearingly smart. You have to be prepared for 15 years of mental chess, and you had better win 90% of the time, or they will. They need to feel confident that you deserve to be in charge by demonstrating a calm cool authority with clear and consistent boundaries, otherwise they will just assume leadership until further notice. They need to feel that you deserve their respect. Angel is not a dog, she's more of a partner. She expects to have some say, and will let you know if she disagrees, complete with protests, some quite passionate. We LOVE our Tibetan Mastiff, but we rarely recommend the breed. Why? They are very special and deserve unique homes, both in property and in an owner. As they protect you, you need to protect them. They aren't just a dog, they are a treasure. Excellent video!

[@badtrekee4348]

Don't tell me you were dumb enough to pay all that money for this mutt?

[@Subwoofer101]

Jay Smith I didn't pay a dime for my dog, we adopted her. I didn't know that there are people who think the breed isn't legitimate. Funny, you can spend even more on sickly dogs that aren't even capable of giving birth unassisted. Yet the ancient breed that has been tested and proven for tens of thousands of years in extremely harsh environments, with a life span double most dogs it's size, is what some people consider it a mutt, or somehow undesirable. Kind of funny when you think about it. You stick with your pure breeds, my "mutt" is just fine for me.

[@rm5238]

SpAceX Fan if they are smart enough to earn a lot of money then it's up to them on what to spend it on. I think your definition of mutt is off, this is an ancient breed. Be happy bud.

[@samueladams1775]

These dogs are not mutts and only an idiot would call them that. As for people paying a considerable amount of money for the dog, it is their money and their right to spend it as they wish.

[@aaguirre453]

Me Myself And I the reason that these people put so much of themselves into these dogs is because they care about and love them. They spend time with their dogs, seeing them as much more than some random animal or simple source of protection. Apparently in England, people don't really care about the animals that they have, and can't comprehend the reason that we would care for our dogs. Tibetan Mastiffs need alot of time put into their care and development, and people love and put time into them like they would a child. If people in England can't understand that, then that's pretty sad.

My grandfather used to tell us stories about Tibetan mastiff and how they fought with wolves leopards and even yeti lol.

Bro my Tibetan mastiffs barks too much at night. Natural instinct. In my village in Uttarakhand everybody keeps Tibetan mastiffs due to leopard and at night whole village is like a barking orchestra. But now we have become habitual of the sounds

[@jerrywitaj]

Damn dude. Where do you live?

[@torygrace3499]

They probably bark to keep the leopards away. Great Pyrenees do something similar by barking in one place, moving, and barking again in order to make it seem like there are multiple dogs on the property to scare coyotes off

[@jerrywitaj]

[@shinonkim4814]

Yes these dogs are bred to bark all night. Lol to the surprise of the the people who buy them to be house dogs

[@user-ze7ml6ec9m]

@Lina Pegu Only the enhanced Chinese one is different. Rest most Himalayan dogs are pretty much the same. An ancient wolf dog breed. Didn't watch the whole video but what the guy said initially about their nature is pretty darn accurate . I owned one(Gaddi mastiff) who grew to become quite large but was killed by a Tiger or Leopard. In village,we don't keep them tied. So they do have a mind of their own.

That neck leash in red colour is a Tibetan style which has spikes inside to protect while fighting. Thanks to such passionate breeder like him that Tibetan Mastiff bloodline is protected otherwise most of the current TM have been genetically modified by Chinese because of TM bubble in China.

He is a independent dog unlike german shepherds they are taught to guard and attack this dog is on its own it can easily sense for fear or anything else and take sudden action They are very clever. They mostly sleep at the day and wake up al night bcz natural instinct My cousin had this dog,I loved it

My most inusual sighting of a Tibetan Mastiff in Tibet was in Lhasa at Norbulingka, the "Summer Palace" of the 5th-14 Dalai Lamas. The large beautifully landscaped park has summer homes & Temples. At one Temple, with roofed collonades, a Tibetan Mastiff kept watch from the roof tops, walking easily along a variey of rather steeply pitched roofs!

[@jupiterkid100]

I've raised a TM across the street. He's 14 months old now. Very gentle giant, friendly with all dogs and likes to sniff people. He has had ear fungus and infections in his ears since my neighbor got him so if people reach to pet his head he recoils. He's honestly the sweetest and most docile guy out there. Not vicious at all. People who keep them out all day and don't socialize them make them have the fake identity of vicious guardians.

[@MT-if1jr]

Socialization is key with all dogs.

[@jordanmercier3616]

I socialized mine a tonne, dog park 2-3 times a week. Daily walks, hikes. Didn't matter she's a guardian thru and thru, at home she alerts us Everytime someone goes by the house and she won't let anyone or anything near the property. Off property she's docile, gentle and loving, totally different animal when she's not in guard mode.

Amazing you actually got an interview with this guy. I was a total dog nerd growing up.. researched on many of these rare breeds. I remember seeing his kennel name mentioned in some books and in the back of Dog Fancy (early 90's) .. long before everyone started realizing how fantastic the TM really is. The TM was one of my top "holy grail" breeds and honestly still is. Very good documentary. Excellent breeder 😉

We all saw a huge black one in a book, and believed everything we read. But as a rare breed enthusiast, They could not be found. Teams went out all over Asia, and NOT a single one was found. The first notable Tibetan Mastiff was on the movie Mans Best Friend, just look at that dog! He is Rotty mix. Many of the first were Rot and St Bernard mixes, then would add Chow at times.

An interesting video. Although this is not a breed that I anticipate ever owning, I've admired them as a primary form of mastiff, probably the progenitor of all mastiff breeds, for many years. Just a few days ago a man arrived at our local dog park with two magnificent Tibetan Mastiffs---one gold, one black and tan---and they were quite impressive.

[@dlholmes111]

WOW, does everyone believe this stupid MYTH!!! I helped make this breed in the 80's. Their was a book, ''The world of Fighting Dogs'' which first spoke of the breed, but had a fake TM picture which looked cool, but was not a TM. NO TM WAS EVER FOUND IN TIBET, NOT EVEN IN THE FOSSIL RECORD. I have been studying where Mastiffs came from, and found the Phoenicians imported them to Europe 3000 years ago. I believe maybe the instinct Borophagus from the US is to origin of all mastiffs. The Italian Mastiffs are the oldest, Cane Corso being the oldest of the two. And if you look at a skull from an Italian Mastiff and compare to Borophagus they are sooo similar, and to different from a wolf for the wolf to be their ancestor.

[@hmmmhmmm6178]

The Tibetan Mastiff has nothing in common with actual mastiff breeds. It’s a misnomer, they aren’t actually mastiffs and European mastiff didn’t descend from them - there‘ve been genetic studies.

[@Rascallucci]

They are very popular amongst rich people in China who want to show off. Even in Hong Kong is the same thing, they can fetch upwards of HK$ 1 million. Problem is this breed can be aggressive and your average dog owner will not be able to handle this dog given its size. We have had numerous attack cases, not just on other dogs, but actually human beings who have been viciously attacked unprovoked. They are dominant and highly territorial, if you walk past its house and for some reason if the front gate is left open, unless they are leashed, it is almost guaranteed you will be attacked.

I know that this dog breed developed in "isolation" from other breeds; however, I can't help but see a huge resemblance to the Caucasian Ovtcharka (also known as a Caucasian shepherd). Both breeds have very strong temperaments, are bout the same size, and were bred to be sheep guard dogs in isolation in the cold Caucasian mountains. They also think on their own. There is also a strong physical resemblance between the two breeds. I thought it was an interesting comparison. Any thoughts on this?

[@drakyitms]

Tibetan Mastiffs are ancestral to the flock guardian breeds, so a natural comparison with the Ovcharkas.

[@rachelbarker583]

Yvette Ugalde you have to think of why each dog breed was developed. If they are used for close to the same purpose as well as close to the same environment then after a certain period of time they are going to resemble each other.

We are lucky enough to own a Tibetan Spaniel. Also known as a Tibbie. These little dogs worked hand in hand with the Mastiffs. They are very cat like and love to perch on walls and anywhere high. They have keen eyesight and amazing hearing. So they would see incoming trouble first and wake the bigger, often sleeping, Mastiffs that there was malfeasance afoot. Their barking would alert the Mastiffs and the Monks to incoming trouble.

[@svbarr]

We got a TM MIX that we are 95% sure was an offspring of the dog(s) that were used in the MAN'S BEST FRIEND film. Her name was Bear and she was black and tan and from what I can guess she was 85% plus TM. Her ears were not quite correct if I recall. 120 pound female. Lived to 13!!! Finally passed due to arthritis, poor gal just shut down at the end.We did accupuncture, pain meds, the whole 9 yards. She was the BEST dog but completely un-trainable. Not in a bad way but she'd look at you as if to say "silly human wtf would I want to sit for you ??".Despite her refusal to be "trained" she NEVER did anything wrong. One time the Gas Company guy left a gate open and our other dogs ran off.Bear sat at the exact point where our driveway met the street, legs crossed -- just guarding the property for hours. She was affectionate but in no way silly. AN AMAZING DOG.

After having had a dangerous and threatening stalker, I'm considering a guard dog. I'm much more of a cat person but I grew up with dogs. As far as I can tell this dog would be a good choice. I don't want an attack dog, but a defender that will keep danger away. Everything seems right with this dog but my main concern is me. I don't have an authoritative personality but I am very calm and patient. I can be dominant if I have too but it's not very consistent. I can step up when need be but otherwise I'm very passive. Would this be a problem? I grew up with a dog that had a mind of his own and didn't always listen so I am used to that kind of attitude.

Glad you enjoyed the dogs and information. These dogs are not for first time owners, and they can keep you in the poor house!

I really appreciate all the work and effort you put into these videos. Keep up the good work !

[@DogumentaryTV]

Thank you @karen sosa I really appreciate you and the growing number of women who are watching my channel. For the most part women have proven to be polite, insightful, and constructive when leaving comments. It really balances out all the rah rah bs, I get from some of the keyboard warriors out there. :)
