Hello my name is George I am a Bullmastiff and 5 years old. Living in Lower Saxon Germany , my best Doggy girlfriend is a Bordeauxdogge her name is Elli and 7 years old.Size Males should be 25 to 27 inches tall (63.5 to 68.5 cm) 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 55 kg). Exceeding these dimensions is discouraged by breeders as they are too big to do their jobs.[edit] Color Two year old maleAny shade of brindle, fawn, or red is acceptable in the AKC (American Kennel Club). The fawn is a light tan or blond color, while the red is a richer, red-brown. Brindles are dark brown, almost black, with light brown markings, (usually like a stripe). A Bullmastiff should have no white markings, except for on its chest, where a little white is desirable. A black muzzle with large nostrils is essential. Also, a Bullmastiff should have V-shaped ears that come close to the neck, have dark eyes, and a large skull.[edit] Temperament A Bullmastiff is fearless and confident, yet docile. A Bullmastiff is courageous, extremely loyal to its family, calm, and loving. It has a very strong protective instinct and will defend against any threat to its owners, as well as any threat to its territory. However, a Bullmastiff does not attack to protect. Instead, a Bullmastiff will simply stand in front of an intruder and refuse to let them pass. If they try to pass, it will knock them over with its massive size and pin them to the ground or against a wall or fence. Bullmastiffs become intensely attached to their families. Their protective instinct combined with their great size and natural wariness of strangers means that early socialization is a must. Generally Bullmastiffs do not get along well with other dogs, because of their instinct to be dominant. A male Bullmastiff should not live with another male dog. Bitches in heat should not be taken on walks, because other dogs will be attracted to them, and they will not like it. The Bullmastiff gets along extremely well with children and is very loving towards them. Parental supervision must be maintained when they are with children; they may knock smaller children down accidentally because of their large size. A Bullmastiff, because of its history, is a very independent dog, and likes to make its own decision. However, with good training, a Bullmastiff will look to its owner for "permission" to act on its instincts. Dominance must be established over a Bullmastiff as soon as possible; a human cannot live with a Bullmastiff that is dominant over them. A Bullmastiff owner has to be very determined because Bullmastiffs are very determined dogs, and in order to be dominant, an owner must be more determined and persistent than the Bullmastiff.Children should always be closely supervised around dogs of any breed
