My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.

Manzo is a black Neapolitan Mastiff boy, approximately 5-6 years old, who was found as a stray in a Las Vegas condo complex, with his owner attempting to sell him on Craigslist just days before completely abandoning him. A shelter took him in and a few days later he was transferred to our rescue. He's underweight and suffers from severe entropion, corneal ulcers, cherry eye, dermatitis, and an umbilical hernia. He is slowing making progress, but we are still treating his medical issues.

Additional adoption info

Our rescue is breed-specific to the Neapolitan Mastiff, and while this breed is amazingly unique, it is certainly not for everyone. We want to ensure every dog's next home is truly FOREVER, so we are very careful with our placements.

* Due to same sex-aggression being so common among bully breeds, we do not place Neos in homes with another bully breed of the same sex (they must be opposite sex).

* Due to insurance and liability purposes, we do not adopt to families with children under 10-years old living in the home.

* We strongly prefer our adopters to have a secure fenced yard (no electric fences), but we do make a few exceptions.

* You must own your own home (no renters, please).

* Previous guardian breed experience is strongly preferred

We are a foster-based rescue, and our dogs are spread out across the USA, so we do not have adoption events.
