Pre Veteran Thread (2012) - Everybody is Welcome !

[CES]

Maybe I can pop in later and leave a few pictures for want-to-quit. You know what I need now that I'm a vet? A mod! Still using Riva batteries.

that would be great. You can post in other people's welcome threads too now

I still use my Rivas too, along with a couple of mods

getting one is not a bad way to celebrate at all!

I have to bring in all my started seeds from the porch tonight. they say cold cold

Our projected nighttime lows for the next ten days are in the 50-60's. there's atill a few weeks after that that we might get frost, but i can bring stuff back in temporarily if need be. I don't deal with annuals, so that's not an issue

I dunno Atty, Shug might end up larger than a newfie...http://dog-breeds.findthebest.com/compare/101-106/English-Mastiff-vs-Newfoundland

though definitely less furry

 

[whiskey]

She'll probably end up about 130...like this Female, a breeder friend I know owns
her name is wilma, shes a sweet heart too! She's only a year old!

This ones muzzle is too pushed in for my liking of what a bullmastiff's headpiece should look like.
Shugs is longer nosed, more mastiff than bully. Also this one is slightly overshot in the upper teeth.Shorter in leg as well...not a good example of what the breed standard should be.

[AttyPops]

Yeah. CES was looking at English Mastiff. 250 lbs.

About the same weight class between bull mastiff and newfie I think. Although, with their coats, Newfoundland dogs just look bigger I guess.

Yes they are bigger bodied , but are about in the same weight class...thier big and long coat makes them look that much bigger.
Take away that long coat & they'd look similar to a BM
