Neapolitan Mastiff/Rottweiler mix
Selena was found on a busy road in our hometown. She was malnourished (less than 11lbs @ 7 weeks old). She was taken in to nurture back to health. She is fully vaccinated, and has participated in multiple basic training classes. Selena is very friendly - she can get jumpy with new people, but learns expectations quickly.
