Breeding Program and Philosophy (see website for complete philosophy)
We believe a mastiff should be a family companion living in the house with its family; as well as be able to excel in the show ring or obedience ring. We do not breed often but when we do our litters are planned with three things in mind; type, temperament, and health.
We keep in contact with our puppies' owners throughout the life of the mastiff and will gladly provide advice and assistance in any way possible. We also enjoy educating individuals, not only about our puppies, but also about Mastiffs in general. We will not sell our puppies to just anyone. Prospective owners will be screened. We expect those looking to purchase a puppy to do the same of us. Thus, prospective owners are encouraged to visit us, meet our mastiffs, and ask questions. Our answers will be truthful and forthright. If we don't know the answer we will either get it for you or point you in the right direction.
Purchasing a mastiff is not something to be taken lightly, but is a life long commitment. However, if at any time during the dog's life the new owners can't take care of a mastiff they purchased from us we require the dog be returned to us instead of allowing it to go into a shelter. We offer both top quality show and companion puppies. Each has the same health guarantees and sound breeding. Typically, the only difference is a companion puppy may have fewer of the mostly cosmetic qualities that would allow it to shine in the show ring. None of which would prevent it from being a healthily well-adjusted and loving companion. To reduce confusion about what is expected from us as well as what is expected of the new parents we only sell puppies on a written contract. All companion home dogs will be sold on a spayed/neutered contract and will carry limited registration. It is not uncommon for us to have a waiting list for our puppies so we suggest you consider contacting us as early in your decision process as possible. We would be more than willing to offer our advice even if you don't decide to get your new dog from us.
