Bullmastiff Characteristics
The Bullmastiff is a breed that was used in England as a guardian of large private hunting reserves and that is why the breed still retains this characteristic intact today. He always knows how to measure his strength perfectly and never attacks, a priori, to draw blood. It is an eminently familiar animal, which adores children and adapts perfectly to all types of environments, but to give its best it also needs to feel part of the family. This is how he will fully develop his exceptional instinct of protection towards his loved ones.
Due to their size and strength, Bullmastiffs require socialisation training as it’s vital for them to learn how to behave around other dogs and unfamiliar people. As long as they well trained, they will get on well with children and other pets, becoming loving and loyal members of the family.
