Pronunciation

Am-Bullneo Mastiff
Description

The head is large with a broad skull and a short muzzle and a tenacious set of jaws. The forehead is slightly arched and the stop is moderate. The nose is wide and has large nostrils. The teeth meet in a level or undershot bite. The ears are usually cropped medium length, lobe and bell, if un-cropped a natural drop ear is allowed. The neck is thick and the shoulders are wide. The chest is deep and broad and heavily muscled. The top line is straight and the tail is wide at the base tapering down and ending at the hocks. The Ambullneo's lateral movement is unsurpassed by dogs of this size. The Ambullneo's thick bone and rippling muscles give the appearance of great strength.

Temperament

The Ambullneo Mastiff is a natural guardian companion to his pack (family). This highly intelligent K9 loves to please his master at any number of tasks. These dogs are very sensitive to the tone of your voice and need someone to speak with assertiveness, but not harshly. It is not a difficult dog but does require a handler who can assert his authority. The Ambullneo would give his life for his family. Early socialization is a must. They should be obedience trained at an early age. It is important to establish pack leadership and be able to read your dogs actions and body language. This robust K9 loves to learn new things and is forever searching for approval to strengthen the bond with his master.

Height, Weight

Height: Male 24-29 inches (61-73 cm.) - Female 21-25 inches (53-63 cm.)
Weight: Males: 130-150 pounds (59-68 kg.) - Females: 110-130 pounds (50-69 kg.)

Health Problems

Like all Mastiff breeds Hip Dysplasia may occur. So until the dog is mature over strenuous activity should be discouraged.

Living Conditions

Ambullneo's do well in the snow as long as there is a warm dog house. They do well in 90 degree temperature as long as there is plenty of shade, a dog house and plenty of fresh water. They are happiest with lots of yard to patrol and enjoy. No less then a 5 foot fence should surround the property. Ambullneo Mastiff's do not do well in an apartment.

Exercise

This breed needs a good deal of exercise and plenty of fresh water and shade. They should be taken on daily regular walks to help release their mental and physical energy. It's in a dogs nature to walk. While out on the walk the dog must be made to heel beside or behind the person holding the lead, as in a dog's mind the leader leads the way, and that leader needs to be the human.

Life Expectancy

About 10 to 12 years.
Grooming
The short-haired, slightly rough coat is easy to groom. Comb and brush with a firm bristle brush, and shampoo only when necessary. There is little shedding with this breed. Check the feet regularly because they carry a lot of weight also trim the nails when needed. The short dense coat is easy to groom with a good brushing once a week.
Origin

A relatively new breed the Ambullneo Mastiff made its debut in the early 1980's in Southern California. Mark Reasinger Ph.D began this 57.5%, 42.5% Mastiff Bulldog breeding program and another decade passed before the F1 progeny was ready to be stored in the cryogenics bank. After testing for intelligence, hips, elbows and other physical abnormalities only the finest puppies and dogs were used. The breed is now in its 13th generation.
