Tibetan Mastiff Behavior Tibetan Mastiffs get along well with other animals and guests when properly introduced. They should be carefully introduced and supervised with new animals, adults and children. The breed can be highly territorial though it is usually confined to his property, auto and other normal boundaries. Once off territory, they are usually non-territorial. A growing number of Tibetan Mastiffs have been formally obedience trained and successfully show in obedience competition.
