My first rescue was a bullmastiff and he was magnificent !!! We were walking him along the beach and a little girl, about 5 years old, saw him and ran up to him screaming " Monster Dog" snd wrapped her arms sround his neck and gave him so much love. Her mother initially was scared to death and when she approached us, she hsd tears streaming down her face. I assured her he would not hurt her and she shook her head and told us her daughter had been nonverbal for 2 years following a tragic wreck..She was overjoyed just hearing her daughter's voice. By the time we parted ways, my husband and I were crying as well. He just had the utmost presence with children.
What was his name?

I had a bullmastiff that passed away in 2017. Ridiculously good guard dog with zero training. Saved me and my house number of times. Still miss my boy so much .
Once you have1? Never enough! Carry onto #4.
I had a Great Dane/St Bernard mix girl. She passed in 2011, at 12 years old. She was built like the Bernard but had the exact look of a Dane. Everyone thought she was just a Dane. She was the most loyal Dog I ever met. I have met mastiff’s in my life. They were big giant babies. Loving and protective. They look like big dopes, until they don’t. Then it’s pray for a fence and hope you can jump it.
We had a rescue that was the best dog we ever had, they bond to the family and very protective.
Where do you live that you've needed to be saved multiple times???
@@Christopher_175 lol..its a rural area..was notorious at the time for crimes. Its called greater noida
.now its much better
I owned a bullmastiff many years ago. He was a little boisterous but he loved adults, kids and other dogs. He was also a quick learner and never left my side. I still miss him.
I’m so sorry for your loss but I think we have all come to the conclusion that bullmastiff can be aggressive, but if you train them right, they can be sweet, lovable dogs
🙏🙏🙏🙏
What was his name?
I had a bullmastiff growing up named Belle. She was a sweetheart. I miss her.
Me too! A tiger-brindle! Lost her at 4 years old due to a mast cell tumour in her foot.😢

We got a Bullmastiff from a rescue and she was the absolute best dog you could ever want. She had been trained professionally and was a pleasure on a leash, in the home, and she was dedicated to the male of the house. She was great with everyone else in the home but she was more of a one person dog. She had access to a little over one acre of fenced in property and she quickly made sure people knew it was her territory. They are fantastic dogs although some of them drool more than others. According to the breed history they will protect their people and property but they were bred to not really bite. The only negative to a Bullmastiff is their relatively short life span.
True they were bred to hunt, catch/knockdown, and detain...Although once in a while one will maul and that can be true of pretty much any breed. However, here in the US homeowner's insurance companies will cancel your policy for certain breeds based on bite stats . . . Bullmastiffs are not on that list. I made sure with my insurance carrier before I got my Bullmastiff.
@@OldDawg-mc3dy
They are fantastic dogs. Congratulations on your pup. Best wishes.
I have 3 bullmastiffs now but been having Bullmastiff for years now. I love the breed, to me it’s just perfect dog.
Same here, we have a Bullmastiff and a Frenchie and she's so gentle towards our crazy French bulldog. I love dogs.
My cousins first bull mastiff was very aggressive and was eventually put down after it bit a chunk out of my face when I was 7. He then got another one who was docile as anything and an absolute giant slobbery sweetheart we all loved. The two dogs, whilst the same breed, were like night and day in character and behaviour. Breeding for good temperament is so important with any dog but especially huge guarding dogs.
The fould of the owners
@@robertjansen1796 I'm assuming you mean 'fault of the owner?'... well, the two dogs were raised exactly the same, in the exact same house, with the exact same people... the only difference was that dog 1 was (unfortunately) from a back yard breeder, whereas dog 2 was from a reputable breeder. Yes there are many bad owners out there who create aggressive dogs, but in this case the ownership had nothing to do with it.
At least your cousin's parents learned from their mistakes and did a lot more training and socializing with their second dog.
Man I anderstand your point of view, but for me a guard dog, needs to be agressive when he needs to be, and I think bullmastiffs are losing their guarding skills, do to be to much laid back !!
@@cobratoxic I agree, but the key part you said there was "when it needs to be".... the first dog was aggressive ALL the time, regardless of the situation and even with people he knew... whereas the second dog was great with people but would definitely still protect the house and his family if necessary
I’ve been waiting on this for 2 years , thank you so much for showing people our magnificent breed..
We have a brother and Sister Bull Mastiff. They trained themselves. The are calm and loving until they sense a threat. When they decide to go all business, they get quiet and stare. They drove off a pit bull attack on my sons dog this last summer. They are 10 years old.
Yeah they’re extremely powerful dogs and have a way stronger bite force than a pitbull.
I have a mix bullmastiff with a border collie. He is huge weighting already 100 lbs at ten months old. I love him. He possesses most features that you talk about. Stubborn, big, gentle, protector, sloppy and he thinks that he's a small dog without realizing how heavy he really is.
Thanks Anneka, what makes the Bull mastiff a very special guard dog is its good nature, man stopping ability and compared to the other very popular guard dogs, the Bull mastiff does not need a lot of exercise to keep fit.
"Does not need a lot of exercise to keep fit." That is the quote from every lazy dog owner.
One of my best friends has a bull mastiff and he is about the funniest most awkward dog I have ever met. She actually has a basket with disposable towels folded up in it right by the front door when you walk in. So you can pretty much predict what is going to happen to you lol let the slobber train begin!
Best dog. Biggest friend. Loyal Protector. Saliva Distributor.
Absolutely . Best Friend , Big spiritual Buddy's 🙏
😅😅😅 yep had 1 myself
1 of my best friends
Great dog😊😊😊
My dad had a bullmastiff some time ago. He was very friendly with people, but hated other dogs. He was also an excellent guard dog, in that he knew when to be a guard dog, and when to just be a dog. It wasn't trained into him, he just....... knew.
Its a stark comparison to his current dog, a blue heeler that doesn't know how to turn guard dog mode off.
My brother has two. I love those sweet pups! Best cuddle buddies ever!
I love the Mastiff breed! My first memory of them goes back to when I was 14 or 15 years old. I was in a Dutch bordertown, in a store that looked like it was entirely carved out of wood. Everything was very old and solid looking. As I leaned over the counter and spoke to the shopkeeper I felt something vibrate against my left leg. A French Mastiff - the biggest dog I had ever seen - leaned its head peacefully against my leg and made a big satisfied sound of a sigh (not a growl or bark). I could feel it everywhere, it was so solid. And then I realized there was another one on my other side. I didn't hear them come into the store and I don't think they were there before. Gentle giants. I was so impressed by them, I asked the shopkeeper about them and learned they were French Mastiffs. I thought they were overgrown Boxers, but I knew then and now they are very different to most dogs I've encountered. Their natural state seems to be extremely calm.
Yep. I personally grew up with bullmastiffs. They are great dogs to have around kids at least based on my experience. They are members of the nanny group and they are usually very friendly around strangers unless they give off bad vibes. In fact according to my dad our first bullmastiff was not the best guard dog. One time my parents (this was before I was born) found her showing off her belly to a workman. My second bullmastiff never was around kids before she was adopted by my parents but as soon as she saw me she licked my feet and apparently I giggled (I was a baby at the time). Mom was forced to admit she could stay. And our third bullmastiff was super gentle and a real chicken. She actually tried to befriend deer and would try to get shrews to play with her plus she wasn’t the best at standing up for herself. A Jack Russell terrier intimidated her one time on a walk so when we got her a sibling (a German Shorthair Pointer) she relied on her sister to protect her.
Another very kind and gentle race.
I bred bullmastiffs for twenty years. Excellent guards dogs you don’t need to teach them anything about guarding they know their stuff!!!! Quite dog aggressive though and need an experienced owner who is prepared to be alpha from day one.
Our female bull mastiff Amber is 9 now and is still very playful. Amber as a pup was the same light colour as the young female in this video but as an adult she is a dark golden red colour so its something to note that they do darken quite a lot as they age. She is exceptionally strong and very determined when she focuses in on something. Something they like to do is watch, they arent very reactionary dogs. They like to evaluate the situation before acting. Constant early socialising and basic training as with all dogs is a must but especially so with something as powerful as a bull mastiff
We are on our third Bullmastiff now big brindle male, great for a young family as are gentle giants, wouldn't have any other breed, until I am too old to walk one
I love this. Saddleworth Moor is just near me. I take my live stock guardian dogs there often xxx
Got a Dogue De Bordeaux and they are very much like the bull mastiffs both in size and temperament. Great dogs.😊
You are in error relative to the comparison of the breeds.
@@coveyssteve it can be difficult for those that don’t know the breeds well to distinguish between a bullmastiff and a black faced Dogue de Bordeaux. They both have a touch of English mastiff in them. Only the shape of the head is different.
@@runedahl1477Yea i lived in a house with a bordoux years ago and I've owned a bullmastiff for the last 3 years . Agree very similar in temperament and nature
Bullmastiffs faces are so lovable !
We have loved this breed since 1980 when we got our first one.❤ We’ve had many over the years and are now ready for another one. Our last rescue passed one year ago. The house feels so empty!
I’ve had three Bullmastiffs. Given a reasonable amount of socialization the are affectionate and will guard with the best. They love being inside dogs and are easy to train to stay in your yard. None of my three needed a fence to stay close to the house.
Mine all had a lazy tendency and didn’t like long walks like Hiking two or three miles at a time. My last male would sit inside in the kitchen by the glass door to watch down the drive. He would alert anytime a car came down.
They train well and all three got basic obedience training, one was also a finished confirmation champion. Hard to go wrong with this breed as long as cleanup doesn’t bother you.
We raise them and I concur. In the last 20 years we’ve only had one real runner that liked bike rides. One actually would try to lay down and go on strike. A walk around the yard is enough for them.
My bullmastiff was such a wonderful girl but she was nicknamed "the dog that ate America". She ate everything as a puppy, but sweet and such a great family dog.
We have a 14 year old with a little Ridgeback in him. Still going strong, very protective and very loving.
Ayo fellow Ridgeback owner!! Mine turns 13 in a few weeks lol.
Beautiful breed. I kmhave one in my neighborhood and see him every other day at the nearby park. A friendly boy he is but with people he knows otherwise he just keeps aloof. But sadly as you have said their lifespan is a bit short which breaks my heart. Just imagine such a cute stubborn boy and he will leave you after just 8 years... Just makes me sad.
I had a bull mastive as a teen, at the time I played club rugby and the bull mastive will literally wrap his paws around your legs at speed and do a perfect rugby tackle, never had it been trained, pure instinct.
Thanks heaps Anneka.
Beautiful dogs. Walking 4 at a time is most impressive. She’s clearly put in a lot of work with them since young.
Because if they want to go they can. Supernatural strength.
beautiful? hmmm
@@jeffk464 Well, beauty is objective. However, I’d guess you like gold chains, track suits, and gold toilets if you don’t think this dog is beautiful.
@@ryanmalone2681Nah, maybe they're just not into excessive slobber. It's not everyone's thing to have spit everywhere 🤷♀️
2:20 Dog on the right is looking out at the landscape like 'this is much more interesting.' 😂
Tengo un Bullmastiff con 13 meses y 60kgr, es un gran perro de guarda y muy intimidatorio, por el día dormita a todas horas, pero siempre atento, y en la noche se transforma en un excelente guardián, patrulla por toda la propiedad y está atento a cualquier cosa que se salga de lo común, ladra cuando es necesario dar la voz de alarma, mientras tanto es muy silencioso a pesar de su tamaño, te sorprende la mayoría de las veces.
A que edad empezó a ser protector? El mío tiene 6 meses.
Love everything you do Anneka, Sadly I just lost my favorite Rottie, she was 13 & 1/2 years old so she lived a long life. Love her and you, but really miss her. She was my BF.
I’m so sorry for your loss.
We share our home with one. This vid is a very accurate description of our guy.
I love him dearly.
The smartest dog I have ever known.
That slobber though.....urgh !
They look scary but most of them are sweethearts!!!😊
I love mastiffs! ❤ They look like the Tosa I use too own. Miss her soo! Love the videos
What beautiful breed! These dogs are very strong and big but they are also gentle giants! Anneka thank you very much for sharing this very interesting video! Very compliments to you!👍👍👍👏👏👏🥰🔥
I bought one here in Ireland 6mths ago after 5 rotties,,a presa and a mali. Got to say hes most close needy dog ever had and most alert to respond
I like bull mastiffs They're a beautiful and magnificent breed of dog
Great video! We have had two and fostered one. Bully's are absolutely as described here. Love people, can be obedient but aren't afraid to push back either; it's part of their charm...:). Ours only drooled when eating, begging for food, drinking or when they were lathered up. I do believe you have to be a little stubborn and very consistent with this breed. As I have always joked, if you let them get away with it once, they take the attitude of "That's they way we have always done it Dad!". They can also be a little sensitive and when they don't get their way they are masters of the pout! You cannot give in to that though. Our two were both sadly diagnosed with cancer in the month of their seventh birthday. Different breeders and bloodlines, same result. That seventh years seems to be a pitfall for them. If you can get them beyond that, you might have them for a couple more years. We currently have a Bassett Hound but I hope to some day go back a larger, mastiff family breed. They are exceptional companions!
Mastiffs are the ultimate dog.
Would love to see a video on the dogue de bordeaux 🐶
Me too!
I had a bull mastiff and he was a loving and caring giant.
Couple decades ago I stayed with a friend in the E Village ( NYC) for ten days while my new apartment was finished.
I slept on the sofa. First morning at 6:00AM his bullmastiff was breathing on my face. Message was clear. Let's go for a walk. I suggested we wait awhile ( after 7:30A) He wasn't having it. 😁 Each early AM while I was there he was ready to walk.. When I ask his owner if they went out early, "Absolutely not" was his emphatic reply.." He knows you are an easy sell because you two like each other."😁 I loved being around that dog. Woof-Woof!
I've played with 2 bull mastiffs and recently played with a boerboel and both breeds are something to see in person but so much love and gentleness. Plus a 6 month old 80lb Presa that was so sweet. Yet I own a chihuahua. Lol
Presas and dogo Argentinos are imo, the best dog's for guard work.
Lovely video...if you think the Bullmastiff has a bid head wait till you see a Dogue De Bordeaux's head! Its even bigger and wider. Would be nice if we can get a video of the French Mastiff next. Also Brindle bullmastiff is my fav collar on them.
Been waiting for the bullmastiff for a long time. Boxer video next would be class
I adopted a Bull Mastiff from the local pound and named him Thor.
But he was such a softie couch potato, I also named him Thoreau.
And he had the most expressive eyes.
Most aggression has been bred out of them, they are definitely not like Boerboels
Indeed, but the old bullmastiff was used to creat the boerboel
That's true. Unfortunately the fanciers of this breed moved toward the show ring and bred the working traits out of them...sadly. Maybe someone will reintroduce some new outcrosses and recreate the working line Bullmastiff. These ones are definitely on the plus size and probably have a high % of English Mastiff blood...another working breed destroyed. Not sure how affective they would be going after armed poachers. Mind you I haven't watched the full video yet lol 😆
@@CiroMastinotrue
@@f.mazz.459 Modern bullmastiffs are sweet couch potatoes. Perfect for people who want intimidating dogs that won't harm anybody. A boerboel is not just a bullmastiff with a longer muzzle but much more aggressive. The ones I knew were quite dangerous.
Any time breeders breed for the show ring they eventually lose the dogs natural ability of what they where bred for. People will breed for looks instead of performance. I will take a dog from working stock over the show ring any day.
Good episode. I adopted a Shepard Mastiff several months back after she showed up at the farm. Very intelligent breed. She's a great companion and watch dog.
What a mix!
Had big Earl - a beautiful Bullmastiff American Bulldog X - sweetest doggo ever. Absolutely ruled by our 12 lb shelter Shih Tzu.
The only thing he hated were blimps that were over the Hollywood Hills where we lived. They made him livid.
Miss him so. Congestive heart failure. The big ones just don't live long enough. Angel pups. Be good to them all, please
He's a good boy. A mate of mine had a mastiff and he was a good boy too.
Beautiful dogs they live short lives couldn't go through breaking my heart that often
I’ve turned that fear into a life lesson to enjoy what I have when I have it. Never know when this ride ends and I’d have zero regrets I chose bullmastiffs for the trip. Hands down the best breed on the 🌍 yes I’m biased lol. On my 2nd
Just rescued my second, the two best dogs ever. Sits at my wife’s side whenever she answers the door. It just came naturally.
We have had them for 30 years now. The best way to handle training and short life spans is to have a pack. We have four lazy.babies. Our oldest female trains the younger dogs very well. Enjoy the journey and the slobber;)
We have our 2nd bullmastiff female, our 1st Bo was so great that we got another when Bo passed away, but the difference between them is night and day, Bo was very laid back, and typically quiet unless something was wrong, our present one is completely different gobby and highly strung, any cat, human, dog, or bird within 25 steps of us gets whimpered at as she wants fuss from everyone!! Which is great she's friendly, but a shame when some don't want to say hi to her because of her size, yes they're stubborn training is harder than training a Labrador, but the guarding instinct needs no training, other than when its acceptable or not, exercise doesn't have to be hours long, but i believe they need some every day otherwise they'll let you know!! Both have been great with our cats, and children despite not being around them regularly, slobber isn't too bad usually its worse in heat or after exercise, both of our females have been sensitive to the demand "now" if all else fails "now" works immediately!! Being female I've held the lead, i do the feeding from puppy stage to show I'm leader, but its amazing how they know the difference in people, my hubby has had a tshirt torn off his back in play on the floor, me i get some play but mostly kisses and cuddles, I've taken ours puppies to a nursing home my work, to socialise them to different people, and they've been amazing with the immobile elderly residents, be strong for the times they pull on the lead as I've ended up at physio before with an injured shoulder from being pulled, mostly as both of mine have been nervous of large vehicles, busy road walks mine haven't liked, they're happier in fields or forests,, i love their wrinkled heads when they're interested, i love how mine helps me off the floor with my arthritis aches now, but in the next minute she's burst through patio doors to get to me to protect me!! A brilliant breed if only they could live longer than most do.
I've never met one bull mastiff that was human aggressive
I had one and he did hate one person.
I had 3 growing up, my dad had them also. Such funny, loving, amazing dogs. I still miss them all.
Love the show. I have an XL American Bully so the bull episodes were some of my favorites of course
Those are some giant pugs
I have 3 bullmastiffs and they rarely drool and certainly don't need a drool rag, its a myth which mastiff owners seem to enjoy spreading. They only really drool when panting heavy after exercise or if allowed to beg for food.
right! These pups were drooling because the interviewer and the owners had pockets full of treats that they were handing out like Halloween candy
Presumably, they’re also drooling because they’re excited?
ive been waiting for you to do a video on bullmastiffs ,ive owned them for the last 30 years a perfect breed,but needs experienced owners
"I will never leave a big dog with a child".. A good dog ownee
Fergus, rehomed to us when friends immigrated. Brindle, and such a gentle giant, best friend to Yster, our Jack Russell.
My dad has one, her name is Freida, and she is the most gentle, well behaved dog ive ever met! She never EVER barks, is a HUGE cuddler and loves attention, and she doesnt slobber at all unless shes getting a treat!! She loves adults, kids and other dogs, but is a but protective of her food towards other dogs.
My Bull Mastiff is a killer!
When he is playing, his bulk and need for affection by hugging you , could result in being knocked down and sat on- definitely a killer.
And when he is sleeping near you, it is possible to trip over him and again you may die when you hit the floor.
Their “bum bumping” , where they use their rear end to bump you in play is actually very funny but all that weight and muscle mass is very effective and could easily knock you over if you are not prepared
Great fun personality dogs and naturally very inquisitive to their surroundings and great guard dogs
I like this breed but I would choose a South African mastiff because they can do longer walks and they are a healthier breed and have a longer life expectency but the are still a beautiful dog
Just a better all round dog they have a much higher level of intelligence
Beautiful friendly loyal dogs, I had 4. I now have a terrier, the opposite, hyper, aggressive, loud!
My female bullmastuffs all died around 5 yrs old with heart problems
I have one she’s 6months old. Going through the teething phase. Playful but not aggressive. Scared of Chihuahuas lol 😂
Best dog's ever, so docile until they need to protect you.
We have had bull mastiffs for over 20 years sadly we are not young enough to care for them when they are unwell all of our were above 60kg and the largest was our last girl at 83kg. We miss them all
Love the Mastiff breeds. I have my heart set on the Cane Corso 💞💞💞
Ameka please keep up the excellent work and beautiful content. Checking in from St Louis Missouri USA.
I had two bull mastiff females. They were amazing dogs that were gentle with children and elderly. They barely barked and were very affectionate.
I highly recommend them.
I'm used to handling big breed dogs, Malamute, German shephard, Rothweiler, Dobermans etc. And maybe 6 months ago I met a new neighbor and he has a bullmastiff. Large male. And the dog loves me. Don't know why cause I smell of cat. Last week I rang his doorbell. Hey I haven't seen you in a while, how are you doing? And his bullmastiff heard my voice and started showing me his favorite things. First a bone, nice bone and he walked back in. And talking with the owner. And the dog got his stuffed toy donkey he loves, to show to me. Nice donkey. And back in the house and back with a bunny stuffed toy he wanted to show me. And he leaning into my legs like trying to show affection. 60kg of dog and massive head like a football and not like he's known me for a long time. Refused to listen to his owner to come back inside the house. Nope. I got a new friend now, I going with him. No sorry my cat will not like you.
They are such gentle dogs but a bit stubborn yes. ❤
Absolutely awesome breed of dog!
My bull mastif elsa , has always been chilled and relaxed , shown guard dog behaviour and likr many other people have said they just know whos okay and who isnt welcome in an instant , i recently rescued a smaller dog who she dotes on and mothers , the moment he barks at anything as if je doesnt have the built in knowledge she is there by his side ,call the pair little brain and big head
Big strong dogs .I've just got an American bulldog x mastiff. Love your videos anneka
I have an English bullmastiff in years one years old and I've had him for about 8 to 9 months and I love him❤❤
I like Bull mastiffs they're beautiful and magnificent breed of dog
There is sure a lot of animals with big teeth in your vids! But I love them all! Love your style, Compassion & Love for all of them!
Love my boy Bo. Excellent temperament and very loving.
I've got a bullmastiff and he is the most adorable lovely baby I have ever met. I don't walk him because he is too strong and wants to pick a fight with other dogs or animals he encounters, but my brother does and he completely obeys him. He is super gentle with kids and with my grandma. I recommend them as a loyal family and guard dog, you only need to be strict and strong when you walk them.
yep
I loved my boys… Bailey and Oliver, such lovable beasts
Just by looking at them, they are simply a very powerful 4-legged specimen breed. Denmark "The Brolhomer" next show, of dog.
The dog isn't in the country.
Such beautiful dogs. I used to work at Petsmart and big dogs were always friendly, It was the small dogs I was concerned about.
I have 6 month old Bullmastiff/ Australian Shepherd mix. He's the sweetest doofus 74 pound pup.
I had one when I was 3. He was so sweet. His name was Roco and he never bit anyone, we went to a few shows with him. Sadly he passed away when I was just 4 due to a Cancer lump on his back. I was super depressed when he passed away. Rip Roco
😢
I'm fortunate that my Lucy doesn't drool. She gets a little wet on the jowls, but doesn't seem to ever drip. Thankfully. Best breed of dog I've ever had. Cute and cuddly and SUPER protective of the home and yard.
Can you do more videos on more rare mastiff breeds? Such as Tosa Inu, Fila brasileiro, Dogue de Bordeaux, Spanish mastiff, Bandogge, etc? I really love your videos on dogs...they are my favourite type on RUclips please keep making them! Have a great day
Tosa's and Filas are extremely rare outside of their home countries unfortunately. I understand why the Fila is banned but not the Tosa though.
our brindle mastiff rosie was nothing short of a big old lump of affection.. passed away at 13 yrs old,great age for a mastiff,and still miss her .. not once wasshe ever aggresive or anything but gentle,even with kittens and other dogs.. if anything small dogs scared the crap out of her.. :-)
Beautiful and mighty dogs.
FYI I have been around at least three bull mastiffs and seven French mastiffs with my young child and I can assure you I would never put my child at risk. There are other large breed dogs that I did not and would not allow my child near, but there are some others I would. I'm sure you can figure out which breeds those are. There are several "gentle giants" that have never harmed children. The first dog we adopted was a golden retreiver and the second was and English bulldog. These are two of the most loving friendly breeds you could.possibly have.
Would be great if you could do an ep on the boxer dog
Our last bullmastiff lived to 13. Careful breed selection, feed and not too much exercise will extend their life in my experience. The bigger the dog the less life expectancy. They bark maybe once at someone visiting the home. I don’t agree that bullmastiff’s will let someone in but not out. I have owned many Bullmastiff dogs and they will nearly always sleep either in the owner’s bedroom or on the stairs/landing to protect them. They will never let an intruder get to the owner. Btw no woman should try to walk 2 Bullmastiff dogs let alone 4 because just 1 could overpower her and do what it wants.
LOVE THIS VIDEO I’m watching it with my 5 month old bullmastiff puppy, Ammo
I had two. The first was a male, great with my kids. As far as health was concerned, let’s just say I was on a first name basis with my vet - constant ear infections, then blew out his knee and finally hemolytic anemia. Larry prescribed two cancer medications for the later, neither did anything and the dog had to be put down at six years old. Bad luck I guess.
#2 was a female who lived till 8 years, sadly she died of liver cancer. Both dogs were affectionate and great guard dogs. My only complaint about the breed, outside the health issues I experienced, was bit of stubbornness in training. That’s on me.
I have owned this breed for over 23 years and a baby mouse has more chance of hurting you they are gentle and misunderstood my first one was afraid of going out at night and the wind I have had 3 children grow up and they are the perfect breed around kids loving and tolerant if you have an aggressive bullmastiff you have made it that way trust me I have over 23 years experience
Been waiting all day for this! :)
Magnificent, sadly they don’t live long.
you must not be a good owner
@@paulmcdonough1093 so must all bull mastiff owners then as it has been proven by professionals in the breed that they don't live long like all Mastiff's so longer lived than others!
Beautiful animals, I had the great privilege of owning one but he passed away and I miss him every second of the day😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
My buddy has 2 bullmastiff. They are loveable drooling machines when they know you.
