Hello, My name is Brandi Griffin and I own TumblinHills Mastiffs. We are a Mastiff family located in Central Texas out in the country. I saw my very first Mastiff in 2001 and fell in love and have had them ever since. My 3 kids, husband and I just love the Mastiff breed. Once you have one you will never be without one!! Or two or three!! They are by far the best dogs we have ever had the pleasure of knowing!! Mastiffs are not quite like other dogs, they are the perfect dog!! If you get past the slobber and shedding anyway!! That took a bit for us. But we love the temperment of them and the size. You just can't beat a Mastiff in our book!! Our dogs are part of our family. We love to play with them and watch them grow with pride! I enjoy sharing my dogs weather it be at the football field with my kids or at the show ring. We occasionally breed and will have puppies avaliable to forever homes. We have recently aquired a couple of Lhasa Apso's. I use to have long haired dogs years ago before the Mastiffs but just as pets. I thought I would try my hand at showing the lhasas and trying to keep the hair! Wish me luck!! Thanks for visiting us and hope to hear from you soon!!
"What the Lion is to the Cat the Mastiff is to the Dog, the noblest of the family; he stands alone, and all others sinking before him. His courage does not exceed its temper and generosity and in attachment he equals the kindest of his race. His docility is perfect; the teasing of the smaller kinds will hardly provoke him to resent, and I have seen him down with his paw the Terrier or cur that has bit him, without offering further injury. In a family he will permit the children to play with him and will suffer all their little pranks without offence. The blind ferocity of the bulldog will often wound the hand of the master who assists him to combat, but the Mastiff distinguishes perfectly, enters the field with temper, and engages the attack as if confident of success: if he overpowers, or is beaten, his master may take him immediately in his arms and fear nothing. This ancient and faithful domestic, the pride of our island, uniting the useful, the brave and the docile, though sought by foreign nations and perpetuated on the continent, is nearly extinct where he was probably an aborigine, or is bastardized by numberless crosses, everyone of which degenerate from the invaluable character of the parent, who was deemed worthy to enter the Roman amphitheatre and in the presence of the masters of the world, encounter the pard and assail even the lord of the savage tribes, whose courage was sublimed by torrid suns, and found none gallant enough to oppose him on the deserts of Zaara or the plains of Numidia."
