Підходить для квартири
Not suited to a small apartment because of its size and weight; more comfortable in a house with a yard.

Подорожі
Needs a roomy car or van; avoid overheating in hot weather; plan how a dog this heavy will get in and out of the vehicle.
Розмір переноски
A very large breed: needs the largest crate size; not eligible for the cabin, and cargo-hold carriage in an IATA crate is not available on every airline.
Розмір шлейки
Size XL, chest girth typically 85–105 cm; a wide harness with soft padding
Повідець
A very strong 1.5–2 m leash, 2.5 cm or wider; the dog is heavy and strong, so loose-leash walking should be trained early.
