And they're always in a rush to leave the bowl like they're running late for an appointment haha. I agree with Oji's method. It's either that or keep a dry mop nearby. Although @GennyB's method is certainly worth trying.

Look who I ran into LOL My lover boy! 
I got permission to show you a few pictures. I also asked her about protection and she said he is very protective of her. Except with the coyotes LOL A coyote ran right in front of her and her dog over the weekend and she really had to hold on to him! She said he was all Wiggly, like he wanted to go play with the coyote! 
She doesn't want to let go to find out what will happen. But she says when she's in a car, no one can get near. 
And she says that this dog slobbers much less than her last one. Very seldom does she find it on her floor.
She's probably 5'5" tall for reference.

Aww he actually looks so sweet out of his eyes!

Loooove him! That third picture down is priceless “Hey, you looking at me?’’ Lol
Wow he’s beautiful and I’m not a mastiff fan lol
I really love the Dogo though ! I would own one in a heart beat. Same with a Dane lol Actually before deciding on the Doberman I almost went with a Dane but the Doberman won my heart with all its qualities and I must be honest I did end up with Ares who I wouldn’t trade for the world lol he became my whole world
Awww darn it now I miss him ... 3 more hours lol

Thank you, @MyBuddy Perfect! Oh yes, that's the look I would want to wind up with: Nice BIG head – I mean really, that seems like an extraordinarily large head compared to the body. Not proportionally too tall a dog. Big ol' black mug that you just want to grab two handfuls of and kiss 'im.
Now, did your neighbor wipe away drool for any of those photos? Was the weather cool or cold? I don't see much drool unless it just drips off between photos.

Yes, he's got a large head!
And I love his sleek, massive body. Sorta like a Doberman but even more massive. He is small compared to their last one. Although, some of it was weight. They let the last one get a little overweight. She says they like this ones weight so are hoping to keep him from getting overweight. I hope so! I love his size/weight.And NO, no one wiped his face. You can see a bit of 'foamy white stuff' on his muzzle in the one pic. But that's it. I specifically asked for you if she had a problem with drool and she said, not on him. The last one had more. When I asked why she thought that was, she can only say, 'different dog'. lol I asked if her floor is wet from it and she said no. Then said, every once in a while you might find something. But for the most part, No.
I know that if he rubs his face on my jeans, he can 'smear' them each and every time. Its not so much drool dripping. Its just a big, dirty mouth! lol! I know to keep my distance if I am not in my barn clothes! You can see her standing on the (horse-like you use
) lead rope to keep him from jumping on me like he does on her! lol He'd knock my down!
He is a beautiful boy!!
I tell you what, I actually have had an infatuation with Dogos for some years now. I know this is oversimplifying things and not appreciating the finer points of the breeds, but a Dogo is kind of like a tall Pit Bull. The drawbacks for me are that it's a white dog and I like dark dogs, and well, I guess the reason I started asking about Bullmastiffs is (besides that I've liked them for years too) that it is the ONE breed that I have mentioned that my wife not only did not immediately utter an emphatic "no" but she actually kind of likes Bullmastiffs.Wow he’s beautiful

Hmm. Now I'm gonna take another look at Dogos on the web tonight.
A Dane though? Nah. Not for me. I mean, it was my favorite breed as a kid but you see way too many of them today. They've become a hipster dog – almost always without cropped ears – and I very rarely see one with good proportions that looks like it can move. I assume they are all pretty much wimps as well. Sorry to have offended any modern-day Dane fans.

The look of a Dogo to me is just impressive. Tall, beefy, square and just plain regal looking. Obviously I think the Doberman is more but man it was such a toss up in the beginning for me lol one day I will have one but right now I’m in love with the Doberman lol

Totally agree!! I was set on a Cane Corso for a long time but just couldn't find a close enough and reputable breeder. I think the fierce look they have is what I love the most about them.
Yes. I've not mentioned the Boeboel yet but I've definitely looked at that breed. Well, not in person like I'd like to, but yeah.
Boy, that one on the right looks like she has to furrow her brow just to see out of her eyes.

Didn't read all the comments, so may be repeating a few things ...
Corsos and presa canarios can be from working lines and be a serious force to be reckoned with. The picture I posted a while back in the random thread? He's a cane Corso x catahoula. He's mid energy, big and a bit defensive with strangers. His mom (the corso) was a working girl and absolutely stunning. They have a very formidable look to them - especially when cropped - like a black panther. I'd call their drool level moderate in general.
Drool - Kaizer has the more mastiffy type head. He doesn't actually drool much outside of drinking. Our lab actually drools WAY more.
At the end of the day - looks alone are what is usually the best deterrent in a dog. Let's face it, not many people ever go through the effort of finding and training a true protection dog. "Scary" looking dog that barks? Usually sufficient. Even my idiot lab can hold people at Bay ... And trust me, it's funny.

Too many bad hair days for my liking.
The Tibetan Mastiff is so often shown like that – like some sort of roaring beast.
The second picture has to be doctored. No way the dog's that big. Am I stating the obvious?
