DescriptionCane da presa - neapolitan mastiff - cane corso - 1946 - 1965.png
English: The scientific standard published for the neapolitan mastiff in february 26th, 1965 includes the synonyms "cane corso" and "cane da presa".
The cane da presa meridionale (Italian for "southern catch dog") is the old, functional working variant of the neapolitan mastiff. Before 1965 there was no distinction between neapolitan mastiff, cane da presa and cane corso, these were simply three different names for the same dog.
The modern neapolitan mastiff is unlike the original, a dog created by dog shows that suffers of hipertypes which bring the dogs health problems. Fans of the original mastino have started an organisation which is trying to gather the remaining specimens which would fit the standard previous to 1965 of the neapolitan mastiff.
This is the second rescue of this proto-race. The first one was in 1946 after WWII which almost brought this working dogs from southern Italy to extinction.

El moderno mastín napolitano es diferente al original, un perro creado por exposiciones caninas que sufre de hipertipos que traen problemas de salud a los perros.

Este es el segundo rescate de esta proto-raza. El primero fue en 1946 después de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, que casi llevó a la extinción a estos perros de trabajo del sur de Italia.
