Tibetan Mastiff

As you can tell from the image, the Tibetan mastiff is a rather large dog. They hail from China, India, Mongolia, Nepal, and Tibet with their primary role of protecting sheep from wolves, leopards, bears, and tigers usually. They grow up to 83 cm tall and are highly intelligent and stubborn to a fault, so dog training school is a total must if they are kept indoors and not used as livestock guards.

Kuvasz

Now the Kuvasz is an ancient breed of livestock dog coming from Hungary. Originally used as royal guard dogs and to guard livestock, over the years they have become indoor dogs. This large dog breed has a dense double, odorless coat but most importantly, they are intensely loyal, patient dogs who have a funny, clownish humor too!
