After my first wife divorced me she got the idea to raise English Mastiffs. She bought a male for one of our sons and a female for the other. The male eventually reached about 220 lbs and the female was somewhere around 160. They had 2 litters but many of the pups died in birth, apparently not too uncommon with big breeds I was told. They ended up keeping 3 of the puppies so then they had 5 at a gross weight of over 1000lbs! They would go through a 40 lb bag of dog food in about 5 days! She gave up on the idea of raising Mastiffs for money.
