The 10 Most Expensive Dog Breeds To Own

#5 – Tibetan Mastiff

Tibetan Mastiffs are large guardians, with thick coats and stubborn temperaments.

While health issues don’t pop up as often in this breed, they are still there and are something to be aware of. Skin problems, allergies, eye conditions, hypothyroidism, cancer, and epilepsy are a few of the major problems.

Of course, as with any large breed, hip and elbow dysplasia should also be of concern. Like the Chow Chow, the Tibetan Mastiff has a thick coat that can also more easily harbor fleas and mites, though a careful owner will be able to avoid infestations.

Frequent, regular grooming is a must to prevent any matted fur and skin infections. Let’s not forget the recent story of the Tibetan Mastiff puppy that sold in China for $2 million, although the breed sells for far less elsewhere!
