Hi Louise
I also have a Bulmastif (Mea) who has just turned one I Think the breed is so sweet for hte size of them.
I also have a 10 wek old Staff x called Razor he is a real bundle of fun.
Just out of interest how lively is you mastiff when at home mine seem depressed as just sleeps or lies down (sometimes this is a good thing)
Look forward to speaking again
regards

I have a bullmastiff that is crossed with some anonymous type of terrier,got him from a shelter-so will never know what type of terrier. He was 2 yrs old (got him last year) and was NEVER trained, so you can imagine trying to start on him. I have read on bullmastiff sites that they can be content with not as much excercise, hence probably the laying around when at home,but yes they love to run around when they are out. Am getting better on the training, however my dog is very very strong, and has occassionally lurched forward on his leash big time - caught me off guard last weekend, and I went down on the sidewalk for the ride, scraping my hands and knees - no moment of inattention while walking him! As soon as I feel him lurching,wondering if anyone has any advice what I should do immediately? Grab his collar and pull him back and a firm "no?" Or stop, or what? Can't afford for this to happen again, as it really hurt.
