Friends of Rescued Mastiffs, Inc.

Maintaining homeless Mastiffs is an expensive proposition. Since Mastiffs are classified as a giant breed, most of the normal expenses associated with caring for a dog are great due to the sheer size of the animal. For example, medications must be issued in great strengths, food and supplements are consumed in larger quantities and at great rates, surgical costs can total into the thousands of dollars and containment systems are larger and more costly, all due to the size of this breed of dog. Dovetailing with the above is the increased popularity of this breed with the public. Annually, hundreds of families obtain this kind of dog with little or no knowledge of the breed, the costs involved in maintaining such an animal or it the proper care and training that are necessary to successfully keep a Mastiff. The result is an alarming increase in the number of Mastiffs which are mistreated, neglected, abused and/or abandoned by their owners.
