?Bullmastiff

Whether your buying a new dog or simply looking for a shelter that will help you adopt a new pet, Insurance4Britain.com is the place to look for all your pet and pet insurance needs.

The Bullmastiff is an incredibly powerful dog, which was originally a cross between the English Mastiff and the Old English Bulldog. Originally bred to find and stop poachers without biting them, the breed has proven its value as a family pet. These dogs are highly protective of their family and other household pets. They have to be socialised from an early age.

The Bullmastiff will only accept strangers if they are introduced to them by someone they trust. Intruders will be quickly halted in their tracks; the dog will be able to acheive this with sheer intimidation rather than physical action. They are not a recommended breed for the novice owner, due to their strength and will. Bullmastiffs are notoriously difficult to train and have an over-protective nature. As with most physically strong breeds, an owner needs to be committed to a tough training schedule in order to bring out the best personality traits of this dog.

They require a lot of exercise but very little grooming. They are great with children, as they are caring, calm and gentle. Their lifespan is considered to be 10-12 years.
