Vin Diesel – Dog

The ‘Fast and Furious’ star has an Italian Mastiff called Roman. Despite the love for Roman, he faced an $8m lawsuit after the dog allegedly savaged a visiting Hollywood screenwriter. The National Enquirer reported that Michael Kerner had visited the home of Vin Diesel when the attack happened.

The Mastiff is a noble, majestic, muscular and large-boned breed which descended from the Roman canis Pugnaces. The breed’s name derives from the Latin “Cohors”, which means “Guardian” and “Protector”.
