Giant dog breed (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

mastiff

(Other definitions for mastiff that I've seen before include "Strong breed of dog" , "Big dog" , "Hound" , "Powerful, smooth-coated dog used for security work" , "one of his best friends?" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
