Is the Bullmastiff the right breed for you?
The Bullmastiff is fearless and confident, yet remains docile and sweet-natured with his family. They are natural guardians of the home, but do not bark much, as silence was a virtue when guarding estates. Bullmastiffs are independent thinkers and may not respond to traditional obedience training. The breed does not require much exercise or grooming, and can live happily in a house or apartment.


Bullmastiff Breed Standard

General Appearance

That of a symmetrical animal, showing great strength, endurance, and alertness; powerfully built but active. The foundation breeding was 60% Mastiff and 40% Bulldog. The breed was developed in England by gamekeepers for protection against poachers.

Size, Proportion, Substance
Size--Dogs, 25 to 27 inches at the withers, and 110 to 130 pounds weight. Bitches, 24 to 26 inches at the withers, and 100 to 120 pounds weight. Other things being equal, the more substantial dog within these limits is favored.

Proportion--The length from tip of breastbone to rear of thigh exceeds the height from withers to ground only slightly, resulting in a nearly square appearance.

Head
Expression--Keen, alert, and intelligent. Eyes Dark and of medium size. Ears--V-shaped and carried close to the cheeks, set on wide and high, level with occiput and cheeks, giving a square appearance to the skull; darker in color than the body and medium in size. Skull Large, with a fair amount of wrinkle when alert; broad, with cheeks well developed. Forehead flat. Stop--Moderate. Muzzle--Broad and deep; its length, in comparison with that of the entire head, approximately as 1 is to 3. Lack of foreface with nostrils set on top of muzzle is a reversion to the Bulldog and is very undesirable. A dark muzzle is preferable. Nose--Black, with nostrils large and broad. Flews--Not too pendulous. Bite--Preferably level or slightly undershot. Canine teeth large and set wide apart.

Neck, Topline, Body
Neck--Slightly arched, of moderate length, very muscular, and almost equal in circumference to the skull. Topline--Straight and level between withers and loin. Body--Compact. Chest wide and deep, with ribs well sprung and well set down between the forelegs. Back--Short, giving the impression of a well balanced dog. Loin--Wide, muscular, and slightly arched, with fair depth of flank. Tail--Set on high, strong at the root, and tapering to the hocks. It may be straight or curved, but never carried hound fashion.

Forequarters
Shoulders--muscular but not loaded, and slightly sloping. Forelegs--straight, well boned, and set well apart; elbows turned neither in nor out. Pasterns straight, feet of medium size, with round toes well arched. Pads thick and tough, nails black.

Hindquarters
Broad and muscular, with well developed second thigh denoting power, but not cumbersome. Moderate angulations at hocks. Cowhocks and splay feet are serious faults.

Coat

Short and dense, giving good weather protection.

Color
Red, fawn, or brindle. Except for a very small white spot on the chest, white marking is considered a fault.

Gait
Free, smooth, and powerful. When viewed from the side, reach and drive indicate maximum use of the dog's moderate angulations. Back remains level and firm. Coming and going, the dog moves in a straight line. Feet tend to converge under the body, without crossing over, as speed increases. There is no twisting in or out at the joints.

Temperament
Fearless and confident yet docile. The dog combines the reliability, intelligence, and willingness to please required in a dependable family companion and protector.

History of The Bullmastiff Dog

Bullmastiffs were originally bred from English Bulldogs (40%) and Mastiffs (60%), hence the name Bullmastiffs also known by some as Bull Mastiffs, as seen by the word separation.The Bullmastiff was created to be faster and more aggressive than the Mastiff, yet bigger than and not as ferocious than the Bulldog.  Despite your preference in the spelling of bull mastiffs, there is no mistaking the appearance of this breed of dog.The Bullmastiff’s known history in England begins around 1860, when they were developed to keep large estates and game preserves free of poachers.

Bullmastiff Dog Overview

As owners of  Watchman Bullmastiff Dogs there are many reasons why as a private bullmastiff dog breeder we chose to go with this type of dog.  First of all we enjoy the temperament and size of the Bullmastiff.  Their reputation and genuine love for children means a lot to us since we have four children of our own.  Our children are very active with all of our dogs. 

 

The Bullmastiff is a strong and powerfully built animal that possesses great intelligence and a willingness to please, making them ideal family companions and protectors. Although large, the breed remains both agile and active and is successful in conformation, obedience, agility, tracking, carting and therapy work. The Bullmastiff’s coat may be red, fawn or brindle..

 

Overall the bullmastiff loves to be with their family even if it is just following you around while you clean the house.  They can also be an outside dog as long as you give them the required attention on a daily basis.  A fenced in yard or country setting is good so they can spend their energy away from your furniture and breakables. 

 

We love our Bullmastiff dogs and would enjoy answering any questions you may have.

The Bullmastiff is a very strong and powerfully built canine that possesses great intelligence and a willingness to please, making them perfect family companions , protectors & guard dogs. Thoughthey are very large, the breed remains both agile and active and is successful in conformation, obedience, agility, tracking, carting and therapy work. The Bullmastiff's color may be red, fawn or brindle.

The Bullmastiff's originated in England begins around 1860, when they were developed to keep large estates and game preserves free of poachers. Game keepers needed a dog that could track quietly, cover short distances quickly and knock down and hold poachers without mauling them. The foundation breeding was 60% Mastiff and 40% Bulldog; breeders were hoping to create a dog that was faster and more aggressive than the English Mastiff, yet more substancial than and not as ferocious as the Bulldog.

The Bullmastiff is fearless and very confident, yet remains docile and gentle with his family. They are natural guardians of the home, and most do not bark much, as silence was a virtue when guarding estates. Bullmastiffs are independent thinkers and may not respond to traditional training. The breed does not require much exercise or grooming, and can live happily in a home or larger apartment.

 

The Bullmastiff is about 60% of his close cousin the Mastiff. Still, standing as high as 27 inches at the withers and weighing between 100 and 130 pounds, this is still a whole lot of canine. After the first impression made by the Bullmastiff’s size, it is the large, broad head that conveys the breed’s essence: the dark eyes,  V-shaped ears that are high-set , and broad, deep muzzle all combine to present the intelligence, alertness, and confidence that make the Bullmastiff a world-class guard dog and family companion. Coats can be fawn, red, or brindle.

Bullmastiff puppies are referred to as "cute" and "cuddly" but they need to be trained at an early age because they will rapidly grow and sometimes don't know their own weight. Fortunately they are intelligient and can learn fast with a consistant strong hand

Early training and socialization are very important for Bullmastiff puppies. TBullmastiff puppies are very strong willed, and dogs and owners will both benefit from training regimens at an early age. Structure should be put in place early and adhered to as dogs grow up. Watchman Kennels will encourage new owners to enroll in local puppy classes in order to ensure that puppies are exposed to other , puppies and dogs and that owners have access to training assistance and information. Bullmastiff puppies can excel in agilityobedience, so training should begin immediately and be a part of the lifelong bond between dog and humans.

 

 

Before You Receive Your Puppy

All of our Bullmastiff  puppies are raised in our home with constant supervision and handling for the first 2 weeks of their lives.  We have 5 children that interact with the puppies daily which helps the puppies become very outgoing and well socialized.  We also start potty training the puppies at 3 weeks old and they will be familiar with a collar and leash.  This is highly important for the new owners so the puppies can adapt quickly to their new surroundings especially if you plan to show.  We have compliments from past clients on how well the puppies adapted and veterinarians comment on how well socialized the puppies are at 8 weeks old.   The puppies will also be vet checked, have their 1st shots, and be de-wormed before going to their new home.  Our efforts of building a good foundation is intended for your benefit.  As responsible breeders we have the best interests in mind for you, their satisfied new owner.
