terryd 8,364 Posted May 22, 2023 Report Share Posted May 22, 2023 There was some one camping down beach car park at weekend with a mastiff. A big old lump of a dog. It was lose and staying close to the tent. So you got put your faith in the owner knowing there dog temp. Kids and little dogs all over the shop and it was unphased in fairness. But it all it needs is some one turning up with pillock of a dog like my old one to see how steady it actually is. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

But as ive always said the breed was very unhealthy with HD , and bad elbows , and not long lived.It was one of the reasons i went into lurchers in the 1st place, to get a healthy type dog, that had nice temps, and catch your dinner if need be .Old Buck was deff , a dog i enjoyed to take out hunting, more so lamping, which he was spot on for, fill me freezer , and kill few Charlie's and that big size he had deff come in handy some nights lol, he be my last working dog, my next dog in the future will only be a pet, and at my age thats all i need , nice ex worker etc. got a couple of that pit bitch i had , our staffs were bit similar , bit smaller . 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Probably still be steady as most proper mastiffs usually are.Whats it got to do with the well behaved mastiff though if some pillock decides to bring a pillock of a dog to a busy beach? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Fearsom looking thing but cool as cucumber.
