Why would anybody want a Mastiff? I mean, it would be like inviting Jason Whitlock over to your backyard to take a dump a couple times a day. Who wants to clean that crap up?

The only way I'd own one is if he was toilet trained.

No shit...
That is what's keeping me from getting a French Bulldog.
And the fact that I don't wanna have to potty train it.
And don't want to have to let it out every morning to potty.
And I don't want to have to let it in every night with it's dirty feet tracking dirt all over the carpet.
And I barely have enough time for my rugrats.

It's a good workout for them and we have too many rabbits out here anyway. The humaniacs freak when people use their Greyhounds to go after them then the overpopulation has to be poisoned which causes all kinds of other enviromental problems. I just wish I could turn mine lose on the deer around here, there are WAY too many. People here would have a coronary if I did that though.

For those of you that own Mastiffs or have been around them, how bad is the drooling? I've been tossing around the idea of buying a Mastiff, but I have some concerns about it drooling constantly and ruining clothes and furniture.

I'm also considering an English Bulldog.

The longer the lips the more drooling issues you will have. Put their water dish outside and get their food when they're outside or in the garage. That's when they drool the most.

Love English Bullies. My advise there would be to join an English Bulldog club. Go to won of their shows and see the top breeders and their dogs. Make sure there are no health issues. This could save you huge $$$$ down the road and will give you the best chance at getting the personality you want.

Actually that is probably a great idea. In Japan it is legal and they have only a small fraction of the fights we do here in the states. They are also regulated about 10x better. As usual outlawing it has only made matters worse kind of like the humaniacs not wanting animals wacked in Chinatown. Now they hand you live animals and you have to go wack them yourself. It was WAY more humane before.

My point was that it wasn't the dogs natural instinct to be put in that specific situation, but it was instead humans that put in him there. I don't think many animals have it encoded in their genes to hop in their car so they can drive around looking for fights. That is pretty specific to humans.

The idea of driving around looking for animals for your pet to fight doesn't sit very well with me.

Sorry, missed it.

I'm all for the regulation of it if it were to be re-legalized... but I'm not sold that it is what dogs are meant to do.

Sure they fight in the wild... usually over food, females, or territory. That is because of their natural instinct to do so to protect themselves and their pack... especially when pups are involved.

Putting 2 dogs in a cage to have a go at one another is not natural by any means tho.

You all talking about Dog Vs. whatever fights, outside of town their is a guy that has about 75 - 55gal drums about 3' in the air with a chain attached to it. At the end of the chain is a rooster. They are spaced so no rooster can reach another one. I know cock fighting is illegal in Mo. but what about other states. I would like to see that. I know I sent this thread off the subject but what else do you think he might be doing if not fighting them birds. :hmmm:
its not chains its tieouts(flexcord w/ hitches)
you can show your gamefowl and its not illeagle to own them. LA is the only state that is OPEN. there are other states where its not open but theres no specific law against it.
