#3. "The wide, flat head is large in comparison to the rest of the body."
#4. "The large nose has well open nostrils and a color that coordinates with the coat."
#5. "The teeth meet in a scissors, pincer or slight undershot bite."
#6. "The deep set eyes are almost covered by the dropping upper lids and come in amber to brown depending on the coat color. Puppies begin life with blue eyes, which later darken."
#7. "The ears may be cropped or left natural. Many owners opt out of docking and cropping, preferring the natural look, as it is painful for the dog."
#8. "The tail is carried straight up and curved over the back."
#9. "The round feet are large with well arched toes."
#10. "The straight, dense, short coat comes in gray, blue, black, chocolate, mahogany and tawny, sometimes with brindle and white markings. A little white is permitted on the chest and toes. No white should be on the face. Chocolate dogs are rare."
#11. "The Neapolitan Mastiff is not a breed for everyone."
#12. "This breed looks a bit intimidating, but is actually affectionate, calm, peaceful and loving."

#20. "A Neo can get along well with non-canine pets if raised with them from puppyhood and/or properly socialized."
#21. "Obedience training is very important. Teach them to heel on a lead and to go in and out door and gateways after the humans. This breed needs a dominant owner who understands and is capable of controlling them properly.
