Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.All of the animals posted on our site have been temperament tested. While not all are in the immediate area, once we have processed and approved your application, we will move the dog to our adoptive area for you to meet, greet and hopefully adopt. Sometimes we will have more than one application on a dog. That does not mean it automatically goes to another family but you should be aware of the fact that until you are approved and set up for the meet/greet.. the dog could get adopted by another applicant.Hello to all of my fellow Mastiff lovers. I would like to introduce myself. My name is Bear and I am the quintessential Mastiff mix of loyalty, playfulness, gentleness, and protectiveness. I would love to share my home with a human/s who know my breed well, as I am not a novice owner. I take my job seriously and want you to know when there is a shift in the environment that may need your attention. I am not a big barker but I am vigilant until you tell me that everything is ok. I enjoy my crate and it can be a place of calm if I start to take my job too seriously. I am completely house trained as well. My strengths: Smart - I know my 8 basic safety commands in varying capacities - Look, Touch, Sit, Down Stay, Come, Leave it, and Place. Playful - I love toys, running, jumping, and hanging with my people. Polite - I am polite on leash unless something fun comes my way like chickens or dogs. I can become cautious if I see strangers but I move along fine if you tell me everything's ok. Quiet - I am not a big barker and would prefer watching as things come and go in my environment. Loyal - I am the most trustworthy guy you will ever know once I know that you are a part of my pack. I am trusting and enjoy a cuddle once in a while. I will look for you and want to be with you always. Trusting - Once you belong to me, I am yours forever. I am a great sleeper and love my meals. I enjoy riding in cars. I enjoy long walks when the weather is not too hot. I think I would enjoy hiking a lot. Things I am working on: Commands - Perfecting my 8 safety commands. Trusting new things - The more places I go and the more you can let me watch from a distance, the more I can trust new places. Trusting new people - I need slow introductions with new people who are confident and want to have a relationship. I am not interested in casual interactions. I will do best if I know what you expect of me in these situations but I would prefer not to be pushed or 'talked into' socializing. I will do better with no children or other pets in the home, as I have a hard time sharing the affection. I was not proofed with cats so I don't know how I feel about them. General Mastiff traits - Mastiffs are known for their gentle, calm, and loyal personalities, making them excellent family pets. They are also protective and courageous, exhibiting a natural instinct to guard their families and homes.

Intelligent and Eager to Please: Mastiffs are intelligent dogs that learn quickly and respond well to positive reinforcement training methods. Relatively Quiet: While they can be alert and watchful, they are not typically known for excessive barking. Can be Suspicious of Strangers: It's common for Mastiffs to be wary of strangers, but with proper socialization, they can learn to be more accepting.
