Bullmastiffs were created in England to assist gamekeepers in protecting their estates’ game from poachers. Poaching was a capital offense, so the gamekeeper’s duty was risky. In being apprehended, a poacher would not hesitate to hurt or murder the gamekeeper: the Bullmastiff, around 1860. Bullmastiffs are a mix between a Bulldog and a Mastiff. The Bullmastiff is not quite as massive as his Mastiff cousin. Even so, with a shoulder height of 27 inches and a weight range of 100 to 130 pounds, this is still a big dog.

The Bullmastiff dog breed is a brave and obedient family protector. While they are wary of outsiders, they have a sweet spot for their family. This breed is known as the “silent guard,” but they are so calm that they make excellent apartment dogs.

Appearance

A bullmastiff is a handsome dog because of its high head and focused gaze. Its sturdy, wide legs support his large shoulders, deep chest, and sloping hindquarters. Its jowls are hung with a faint frown, and its round deep-set brown eyes are a little sad, in true bully form.

Grooming

A Bullmastiff’s short silky coat is essentially washed and worn. All it takes is a fast brushing daily or weekly to remove dead hairs and minimize shedding. Bathe your Bullmastiff whenever you want or only when he’s dirty. With gentle dog shampoos, you can bathe a Bullmastiff every week without hurting his coat.

Bullmastiffs drool. There’s no getting around it. Make it a habit to have a hand towel with you so you can clean his lips frequently. The rest is just routine maintenance. Keep your nails short and wash your teeth regularly for overall excellent health and fresh breath.

Personality

When it comes to family relations, Bullmastiffs are gentle and affectionate. Their calm, easygoing personalities make them ideal pets for families with well-behaved youngsters. When a stranger enters the picture, though, the Bullmastiff’s laid-back attitude towards family members is likely to alter. People who are not family members tend to make these canines distrustful.

The Bullmastiff is no pushover, despite his family-oriented dedication. It tends to think independently, which can make training difficult. It may also be less tolerant of animal members of a family than of human members. If you’re contemplating adding a bullmastiff to your family, proceed with caution.

Typical Health Problems

Although this is a generally healthy type of dog, a few health concerns affect this breed. All owners should be aware of these concerns and call their veterinarian if they have any. Because of their short muzzles, Bullmastiffs are more susceptible to heatstroke and heat fatigue. During particularly hot days, it is critical to keep this breed indoors.

During the summer, exercise your Bullmastiff early in the morning or later in the evening when cooler weather. Another health issue that some Bullmastiffs may suffer is hip dysplasia. Hip dysplasia is inherited from the parents. Thus it’s crucial to ask a breeder about the history of a dog’s parents.
