 | Agrippina wrote ... The neo of today really in no way looks like the mastino of old. There are definite similarities seen in some examples though. Pay close attention to older head shapes. Yes, Dr. Allen's book is a bit dated, but in some ways still true today and really corresponds with my first post in that some people (working people) want that 'old style' dog. Most show people tend to like more heavily wrinkled dogs. Heavily wrinkled being a modern creation. The working crowd thinks these heavily wrinkled dogs aren't any good- get winded, breathing problems, no endurance, ect. I tend to sit in the middle and want more functional dogs with SOME wrinkle. Thanks Nikki, you're right. I mis-spoke/typed. There are distinct differences.
