I thought I would add a little update about us as a family, breeder, owner, handler of our beloved bullmastiffs. Most who contact me through this site are very nice, friendly and respectful. I have had the misfortune to have a couple who were not. I believe this is the exception rather than the rule.
 We do breed on occasion, and on occasion have puppies to sell.
 Our reason for breeding, when we do, is to bring another 1 or 2  into our life, heart and home to continue on with in the show ring, or obedience, rally, agility and 4 -H.  It would probably cost me less to buy one from another breeder. But this is part of my love for this breed. We breed for the betterment of what we have not just to have puppies.
  We are not a business, do not make a living doing this as some have misconstrued in correspondence with me. If truth be known it probably costs us more to breed than we have ever made back from selling a few puppies.
 Most of our puppies are spoken for before they are even born. When I do have an occasional puppy for sale I may well say they are looking for new homes and I am always welcoming to worthy homes, to consider placing a puppy.  But I do not breed puppies for the multitude of pet homes out there looking for puppies..
  We put a lot of time and consideration into breeding a litter. Do many health checks and matching of the two dogs we feel will produce the best we can.  We screen families for homes and do not place a puppy just because we have one or the family wishes to have one.
 I hope for and plan for a long lasting relationship between the new families and us as the breeder of their new puppy.  I hope for and have attained great friendships with those who have dogs from us.  We have to date produced 14 puppies in the 12 years we have had bullmastiffs . Some of those have gone to pet homes. Four are first and formost in homes where they will be loved and part of the family, secondly show hopefuls.  And three reside with us. loved and part of our family. Not for sale at any amount.
  So yes I announce our litters on this web site. I brag about them and share pictures. That does not mean I am a business and selling puppies here.  I am a hobbier, fancier of this breed and have no other breed in my life.
  Thank you to all who have contacted me through here. I hope everyone enjoys my site. It is a fun place for me to share. I hope for others to continue to contact me in friendship. I can and will help those who wish, find reputable breeders.  
Thank you for visiting

  I do not like to ever place or sell a same sex bullmastiff with another, especially a male, but let me tell you a little story about our gentle boy Monkey who had to be rehomed after an injury and rehabilitation of this injury.
 He was placed with a wonderful family who know about bullmastiffs, have had a couple and even had one currently, a female. We thought as did they it would be a great place for Monkey.
 He got along and still does with our 3 female, he is even very gentle with Opal the onry puppy. He was about 10 months old when he went to this family. Their female was still intact and about 5 years of age. Here is what I have gathered in little bits since getting him home.
 No they did not let me know how bad it was even with my asking them a few times during that period how it was going.
 Their 5 year old bitch did not like Monkey and attacked him. I don't know if it was more than once but to my understanding they pretty much had to keep the two separated even after having their girl spayed. They continued to have him for about 7 months. This would not have been a fact had I known how bad the two hated each other. Monkey lost part of an ear. He is healed completely and I do not know how badly he was injured or if the girl was injured at all but this can happen. Even in different sex households.
  I believe some dogs do not have the temperament to be more than an only. I am at home, retired and with the dogs in most all circumstances. If I can not be with them, they are not together. I never keep an in heat female with anyone but themselves. Yes it is time consuming but I either have them spay or separate for the 3 weeks or so maybe twice a year that they have heats. I feel I can read my dogs and know their temperaments. If and when I see trouble stiring I separate before it happens. 
 If you are not planning on showing or breeding it is best to have them spay or neutered at a proper age. We do this at about 18 months for the male and after the first heat cycle for the females. Not every dog needs to be bred. I do not place or sell puppies to those wanting to breed.  We sell on limited registration with a spay neuter contract. On occasion I place a show prospect. I expect them to be shown to championship and all health clearances done before thoughts of breeding come into it.
  Cooper is somewhat onry even with the girls who are not in heat if there is one that is.  So they do outside separately from each other, and Cooper has the basement, where my craft room is to himself during the heat cycle.  I have found Blush and Harmony, her daughter age 17 months want to dominate each other outside so they are not out without us or are out separately. They may well be a fight waiting to happen.They get along great in the house with us present.
 So if you are looking for a bullmastiff to add to your family. Learn about this breed. Be sure to start from the very beginning with training and socializing. Waiting until they are bigger is a mistake many make. Bigger becomes less easy to handle because of size if they do not already know the basics in obedience.  Puppies should be started in basic obedience, as soon as their shots take effect.. We start all of ours in puppy kindergarten and go on from there into whatever training is best for each particular dog.  But general obedience is a must for each and everyone. Learning good solid recall, come, sit, down, stand and stay. Learning no bite and no jumping. We never let a puppy do something we do not want a 120 + dog to do. It is easier to train from the beginning than to have to unlearn something that was learned as a puppy. Just because it is cute as a puppy does not make it cute as an adult. .
