5 months Bullmastiff

[lamangzz]

---

Size

Males should be 25 to 27 inches (63 to 69 cm) tall (AKC Std.) at the withers and 110 to 130 pounds (50 to 59 kg). Females should be 24 to 26 inches (61 to 66 cm) at the withers, and 100 to 120 pounds (45 to 54 kg). Exceeding these dimensions is discouraged by breeders as a larger dog may be too cumbersome to be agile enough to properly perform the job for which the breed was created.
Color


Three year old female Bullmastiff


Bullmastiffs are described as fawn, red, or brindle. These are the only acceptable colors in the AKC standard. The fawn can range from a very light brown to a reddish brown. Red can range from a light red-fawn to a dark rich red. Brindles are a striped overlay of the fawn or red. A Bullmastiff should have no white markings, except for on the chest where a little white is allowed. See breed standard under external links for additional details
Temperament

A Bullmastiff should be confident, yet docile. A Bullmastiff is courageous, extremely loyal to its family, calm, and loving. Bullmastiffs become intensely attached to their families.[citation needed]
Bullmastiffs can also get along with other dogs, but it is common for males not to get along with other males. The Bullmastiff can get along extremely well with children provided the dog has been properly trained and socialized. Parental supervision must be maintained when they are with children; as with most large dogs, they may knock smaller children down accidentally.
A Bullmastiff, because of its history, is a very independent dog, and likes to make its own decisions. However, with good training, a Bullmastiff will look to its owner for "permission" to act on its instincts. Early socialization and obedience training with all members of the family will teach the dog to look to them before taking action. They are very athletic and muscular, making them incredibly fast and agile.
They were never bred for hunting purposes, and rarely show signs of aggression. The Bullmastiff is a sweet-natured breed.[citation needed]
Health

The lifespan for a Bullmastiff is generally from eight to ten years. A Bullmastiff will not stop growing until it is about two and one half years of age. Bullmastiffs are prone to certain hereditary diseases including:

• Hip dysplasia, affecting 24.5% of specimens [1]
• Elbow dysplasia, affecting 13.8% of specimens [2]
• Entropion
• Hypothyroidism affecting 2.8% of specimens[3]
• Lymphoma cancer
• Progressive retinal atrophy, a particular problem since the trait is an autosomal dominant one.
• Arthritis
• Bloat

Cosmetic genetic problems include longhairs and Dudley's. These are recessives and not common. The Dudley, named after a notable Bulldog breeder of the 1800s, the Earl of Dudley, is a lack of pigment in the mask. It can be liver colored or simply not present. These dogs can be confused with Dogue de Bordeauxs even if you know the breeds well.


aw sayup diay ang wikipedia..heheh kai la man whit markings sa chest..hehehe


never thought dli diay reliable ang wikipedia nga info.. tsk3

actually sakto man ang wikipedia mao bitaw f u read wat ya post g bold og gi underlined gyud ang: A Bullmastiff should have no white markings, except for on the chest where a little white is allowed.

i will repeat wat i said "ang bullmastiff bai dapat ala pud white markings sa chest.. its either 100% fawn or 100% red although acceptable ra if gamay ra ang white marking sa chest as in gamay ra gyud but preferred gyud ang wala. then naa sad sila black mask sa face but does not cover 90 to 100% of the head."

and one more thing the image u showed is a brindled bullmastiff f u look at his chest gamay ra pud ang white marking wala gyud sya ning cover from chest to belly so its acceptable.. but look at the mask even if shes a brindle one do u notice na ang black mask naa ra sa iya nose na area og sa eye but not covering the whole face. all bullmastiff are like dat
