I'm not talking about some spanner scumbag, but some new people have moved into the house next door to me and they have brought with them some sort of beast that's about 8 foot long, sandy/golden brown in colour, pads around the garden all day and - when I first set eyes on it looked like a fookin lion to me.

Now, either it is a lion, or else it's some sort of lion with a dogs head. Huge big fooka it is.

Any ideas? Bull Mastiff maybe?

    English Mastiff probably. Huge feckers they are. I think the biggest dog in the history of the world ever at all was an English Mastiff called Zorba - but fecked if I can find a picture link to verify that

    EDIT - not Zorba, but here's a pic of an English Mastiff:

    That's one fat fooka of a dog Leroy.

    My new neighbour looks a bit like that - only a lot slimmer, more lithe and almost cat like.

    Jeez, maybe it is a lion???

    my next door neighbour has one too and it can be a loud fierce thing too, I swear its head is at least twice the size of a human head. God knows what it capable of. Neighbour is a butcher, so hopefully the dog will never get hungry.

    There's no need to worry unless you've got a tortoise in your garden.

    Why dont you just pop round with a cake and welcome them to the neighbourhood, introduce yourself and ask them is that a lion in your garden?

    Thats one very confused beastie!
  • Next door neighbour also has a English mastif, she sounds fierce but is a big coward really. Mind you was a bit concerned one afternoon when I walk round the side of my house and the barking came from above me as she had somehow managed to jump from a slope in the garden onto their garage roof,that is one hell of a dog when she is towering above you!

    It's definitely a lion - it was chewing on a zebra earlier.

    So were you down the rub a dub when they wondered where you were?
