Article Title: Dog Breed - What Exactly Is A Bull Mastiff?
Author: Jeremy Wong
The calm, loyal , and loving Bullmastiff has a strong and
protective instinct and personality. When danger arouses, it
will protect and defend its owner from possible threats.
It's origins started in England back in the second half of the
nineteen century when gamekeepers needed to protect game
preserves and large estates from poachers. Dog Breeders and
some gamekeepers began to cross existing breeds to produce a
dog breed that would possess the required aggressiveness,
strength, speed, intelligence and the quietness needed to scare
off approaching poachers.
Some might say that a Bull Mastiff looks a lot like a bulldog
because of it's sad look. And they are right. A Bullmastiff'
DNA is made up of sixty-percent Mastiff (Old English Bulldog)
and forty-percent Bulldog (Modern Day Short English Bulldog)
and can weigh up to a 130 pounds. It's color ranges from a deep
red to a light red fawn which is known to many as a red-fawn.
A protector and a lover, a Bullmastiff may not get along well
with other dog breeds. However, it get's along pretty well with
people and children and is often very loving towards them. They
are also quite sensitive to the tone of your voice but requires
an assertion of authority over him as they are quite stubborn.
Although a Bull Mastiff's coat is short, dense and gives great
weather protection, he enjoys living in the house where he is
close to loved ones. In today's modern world, a Bull Mastiff in
a fine example of a first-rate family dog. They generally cost
around $700 to $1,500 depending on their size, color and
character and shed very little hair.
If you are looking for that loving dog who will stand by you no
matter what, then the Bull Mastiff will be your best friend
ever. The Bullmastiff was approved by the AKC on February 8,
1992 which was made effective on March 31, 1992
