The Dogue de Bordeaux is a Mastiff from France. Descendant of the most ancient mastiffs, the Molloser dogs of Rome, the Dogue presents a large and forbidding appearance. He has a massive head with a bracocyphalic muzzle, super big paws and an abundance of wrinkles. The head of the Dogue is the largest in the canine world. The brow is pronounced, giving him a perpetually worried look. He has deep flews on the lips, which hold an abundance of slobber or drool. His face often has a black or red mask, which also gives him a rather pompous appearance. The dog's chest is deep and powerful and let down well beneath the elbows, while his neck is thick and equally powerful.
