Hi Brenda,
Welcome. I have a friend in "the Valley" who breeds and shows Mastiffs. I love the giant breeds... |

Hello!
Do you have a male of female? On the subject of Mastiffs...I met a lady at Pet Zoo who purchased an English from a breeder in Palmer. Her story really irked me! She was on a list for a "pet quality" puppy and when the litter arrived they went to meet the pups when they were ready for homes and the breeder told them that there were no "pet quality" puppies in the litter and they were selling them for $3000.00 because of their quality. I do not show but it is my understanding that in a well bred litter you never have all show quality dogs and are lucky to get one or two in a large litter that have show potential. It did not sound like the breeder had the dogs appraised and he was just saying they all were show quality for a higher price. The family had already met the puppy and decided to pay the $3000.00 the breeder was asking for the "show quality" pup (all of them apparently) because they really liked the one they met. They thought they were getting papers for the dog since he is "show quality" and they paid that price for him but the breeder told them that even though they paid for show quality he was not going to have "competition" in Alaska and will not give them his AKC papers. This makes me so mad! Either you are selling a puppy for a pet with limited or no registration for a pet price (which is NOT what they paid) or you are selling a dog with show potential for a higher price (which in my opinion is still wrong) but this guy took their money and won't give them what they paid for! It seems like the breeder is very shady! The woman's opinion of the breeders dogs was that they "were great dogs" but something seems fishy here. This reeks of a scam! Just thought I would "vent" since the topic of Mastiffs came up! lol
