Morphology

Like most dogs, the Bullmastiff's head shape resembles that of the hippopotamus, it is massive and his chops are very drooping.

His eyes can be hazelnut or very dark. The Bullmastiff's ears fall down on each side of the head and when he looks like he's thinking, they rise slightly, giving him a very funny look.

His muzzle is entirely black forming a mask. When the tail is not cut off, it is long and drooping and can whip quite strongly when showing signs of joy or affection.

According to the FCI breeds nomenclature, this breed belongs to group 2, section 2 and is #157
