A very important difference between the Papipoo and the Spanish Mastiff is the size difference between the two dog breeds. The Papipoo is a tiny-sized dog while the Spanish Mastiff is a giant-sized dog.
Furthermore, the Papipoo belongs to the Mixed Breed Dogs group. Mixed Breed Dogs are not purebred dogs.

Breeds in the Working Group are known for their imposing stature, strength, intelligence, and fearless. Because of their size and strength, working dogs require a structured home life and firm, fair, consistent training by someone who can provide leadership without resorting to anger or physical force.
