There are several varieties of the Mastiff, mainly the English, Neapolitan, Bull, French and Tibetan. Many people have asked the common question of which is bigger between the first two types. The English Mastiff have short coats, with a squarish muzzle and floppy ears.

Neapolitan Mastiff

Neapolitan’s unique trait is the loose skin that forms wrinkles over the entire body. However, the English Mastiff weighs considerably heavier than the Neapolitan Mastiff. They can well be over 200 pounds while the Neapolitan can weigh anywhere between 120 to 200 pounds. The English Mastiff’s body also looks sturdier and a bit stockier which also adds to the bigger appearance and the other has its weight distributed differently. There is also a difference in height where the Neapolitan is between 26 to 30 inches and the English is already at the 30 inch mark.
