No special grooming requirements.
Peaceful and calm toward its family, the Neapolitan Mastiff has a killer instinct when it comes to intruders and threatening animals. While males are more aggressive than females, both sexes can be difficult to handle due to their protective nature and large size. Puppies need to be socialized to humans and given training early in order to establish good obedience and manners. It is important to establish control over this willful breed before it becomes too big to handle.
