Tug is the result of three breeders (Mary Price of Tory Bullmastiffs, Dessa Surratt of Bravo Bullmastiffs and Tamara Cady of Reprisal Bullmastiffs) putting their heads together to create a litter that would give direction within their breeding programs.
His was the first litter sired by Am/Can Ch Kingslynne's Noble Paladin (owned/produced by Chris & Karen Campbell, Kingslynne Bullmastiffs) and Tug became Noble's first champion sired get.
Tug is one of the most honest happy-go-lucky dogs we have had step into our lives. This boy has never had a bad day - he loves the world and all that he discovers about it. He was fun to show and fun to live with. His attitude is reflective in the show ring, he truly enjoyed being out there. He was a crowd pleaser and drew much attention from all those who never met a Bullmastiff.
At the time he was showing, it became clear that either the judges would love him or not. The most common compliment from judges was how much they liked his shoulder assembly but confided that he was "too much" dog and his type was "different" and made them afraid to put him up for fear that he wasn't correct. He was much wider that the rest of the entry, and despite his bulk, he had the body tone and spirit that was indicative to giving chase in a millisecond. His musculature is rock hard and always ready for action!
Some time after he retired from the show ring, we decided the best gift to give him was to let him live with our dear friends, Chuck and Shelley. They already had Tug's daughter, Abby - and they both had a love affair withTug. He was collected, neutered and placed into this dream home. We couldnt have wished for a more loving and capable family for our happy 'man'! We may not physically have Tug in our home, but he is always in our hearts.
Frozen semen is available only to the discriminate breeder with integrity and a plan.
