The Pyrenean Mountain Dog, known as the Great Pyrenees in North America, is a large breed of dog used as a livestock guardian dog.
 It should not be confused with the Pyrenean Mastiff.
The Pyrenean Mastiff (Spanish:"Mastín del Pirineo", Aragonese:"Mostín d'o Pireneu") is a large breed of dog originally from the Aragonese Pyrenees in Spain.
 It should not be confused with the Pyrenean Mountain Dog.
Rare breed (dog) is any breed of dog that is small in number and is used to refer to both old established breeds such as the Stabyhoun and Glen of Imaal Terrier or newer creations.
 Since dogs have greater genetic variability than other domesticated animals the number of possible breeds is vast with new crosses constantly occurring, from these both selected and random crosses may come new breeds should offspring reliably breed true to type.
 New breeds from the wild such as the Carolina Dog are quite rare compared to attempts at breed creation from man as found in the American Hairless Terrier which sought to exploit a mutation.
The Stabyhoun or Stabij is one of the top five rarest dog breeds in the world.
 It is from Friesland and in particular from the Frisian forest area, a region in the southeast and east of Friesland.
 The breed has been mentioned in Dutch literature going back to the early 1800s, but has only extended its range from the 1960s outside of Friesland and not until the 2000s did the range officially extend beyond the Netherlands.
 The name Stabij translates roughly as "stand by me" with the last part simply Frisian, meaning dog, which is pronounced "hoon".
 The dog is considered a Dutch national treasure.
 There are only a few thousand Stabyhouns in existence today worldwide.
The Dogue de Bordeaux, Bordeaux Mastiff, French Mastiff or Bordeauxdog is a large French Mastiff breed—and one of the most ancient French dog breeds.
 A typical brachycephalic molossoid type breed, the Bordeaux is a very powerful dog, with a very muscular body.
 This brawny breed has been put to work in many different capacities, from pulling carts and hauling heavy objects, to guarding flocks and, historically, the castles of the European elite.
The Braques français are hunting dogs, from a very old type of gun dog used for pointing the location of game birds for a hunter.
 There are two breeds of Braque français, both from the south of France, the Braque français, type Gascogne (French Pointing Dog - Gascogne type, larger size) and the Braque français, type Pyrénées (French Pointing Dog - Pyrenean type, smaller size) They are popular hunting dogs in France, but are seldom seen elsewhere.
Seven Royal Navy vessels have borne the name HMS "Mastiff", named after the mastiff, a type of dog:
Mastiff type means a large molosser dog.
 The term "mastiff type" has been used synonymously with the term "molosser".
 For example, the bulldog breeds, the Great Dane, the mountain dogs, the pit bulls and even smaller dogs such as the Boston terrier, may be considered "mastiff types" in this broad sense.
 The descriptive term, mastiff type, should not be confused with the breed, the Mastiff.
 All breeds are individual and should be referred to by their breed name to ensure correct identification.
The English Mastiff is a breed of extremely large dog (often known simply as the Mastiff) perhaps descended from the ancient Alaunt and Pugnaces Britanniae, with a significant input from the Alpine Mastiff in the 19th century.
 Distinguishable by enormous size, massive head, and a limited range of colours, but always displaying a black mask, the Mastiff is noted for its gentle and loving nature.
 The lineage of modern dogs can be traced back to the early 19th century, but the modern type was stabilised in the 1880s and refined since.
 Following a period of sharp decline, the Mastiff has increased its worldwide popularity.
 Throughout its history, the Mastiff has contributed to the development of a number of dog breeds, some generally known as Mastiff-type dogs, or, confusingly, just as "Mastiffs".
The Pyrenean donkey, French: Âne des Pyrénées , is a breed of domestic donkey from a large area of south-western of France, covering the whole of the regions of Aquitaine, Midi Pyrénées and Languedoc Roussillon.
 The largest concentration is in Aquitaine, which is a large part of the historic region of Gascony.
 The Pyrenean donkey breed unites two quite different types: the short and powerful Gascon type, and the taller and more elegant Catalan type, which is the French population of the Catalan donkey breed, approximately 20% of the total number of which is in the Roussillon.
