But the behemoth canine is one gentle giant, owner Mark York told The Huffington Post in anemail.
不過在馬克·約克給《赫芬頓郵報》發來的電子郵件中，他稱這只大狗其實非常溫柔。

馬克·約克在給《赫芬頓郵報》的電子郵件中寫道："我離開家的時候它會哭，像跳跳虎一樣蹦來蹦去，叼著一只橡膠小雞搖來搖去。如果你離它太近了，它就會拍死你。"
"Every morning when we come downstairs he greets us with the zoomies and spins around incircles. He is just a big soft baby boy. A real boofhead."
"每天早上，我們走下樓梯的時候，它汪汪叫著，轉著圈兒向我們問好。它就是一個大型的嬰兒。一個真正的小傻瓜。"
Mark and Dorothy York adopted Baron in February after his breeder became unable to watchhim full-time.
在今年二月份，巴倫的原主人沒法全職照看它了，于是馬克·約克和多蘿西·約克夫婦收養了它。
Mark York drove more than 900 miles to get Baron and bring him back to his home in Sydney.York said Baron was "in need of TLC," as well as some chiropractic work.
馬克·約克行駛了超過900英里去接巴倫，并把它帶回了悉尼的家中。約克稱，巴倫"需要親切的照料"，也需要脊椎推拿。
As you might expect, Baron has an appetite fitting his size.
和你想的一樣，巴倫的胃口和體型一樣大。
"Baron eats about two steaks a day and along with our French mastiff, Chelsea, costs morethan $200 a week to feed," York told the Daily Telegraph.
約克在接受《每日電訊報》采訪時表示："巴倫每天要吃兩塊牛排，它和我們的另一只法國獒切爾西每周要花掉超過200美元的伙食費。"
Baron's typical eating schedule consists of meat and biscuits for breakfast, chicken necks for amidday snack, and more meat and biscuits for dinner along with extra vitamins and oils, andsome sardines, egg, pumpkin and veggies.
巴倫的食譜如下：早餐吃肉和餅干，午餐吃雞脖子，晚餐吃更多的肉和餅干，還有額外的維生素、油脂、沙丁魚、蛋類、南瓜和蔬菜。
But Baron's no loaf -- in fact, his friendly and gentle demeanor have landed him a career as atherapy dog visiting schools and hospitals. "He will start work in a few months time," York said.
但是巴倫并沒有游手好閑--其實，因為它親人、溫柔的個性，他可以作為治療犬在學校和醫院工作。約克說道："幾個月后它就可以開始工作了。"
