my bordeaux is a molosser as shes a mastiff,but im not sure if shes a bull breed but i no shes related to the english bull dog. i nowot you mean,it is very confusing. im not meaning to sound 'breed specif' but with all this oit bull hype id rather trin wasnt classed as a bull breed if she is |

Molosser is a name for a group comprising several breeds of large, solidly-built dogs, probably all descended from the same root stock. The name derives from Molossia, a country once located in Western Greece. Most Bull breeds are considered to be a 'Molosser' the Dogue De Bordeaux is considered to be a 'Bully' breed although it also falls into the 'Mastiff' family of dog breeds. I also own one of these beauties although shes really still only a baby  |

I used to groom, if you could call it that, a beautilful male Dogue called Mowgli, he died of a heart attack at just 4 years old but he was a credit to his breed, the most gentle large breed of dog I've handled (unlike the St Bernard who slammed me against the bath lol!) Becky |

oh wot a shame,he was only 4!? trin is a gentle giant,she can be abit weary of strangers but if you've got a dog with you she will want to come and say hello. we bumped in2 a poodle the other week when walking her in the park with my boys,it was off the lead and i couldnt c the owner,i had trin off the lead and didnt c the poodle,he was micro,trin went up 2this tiny (in comparison) dog b4 i realised he was there and gave the dog a 'kiss',she coated it in slobber,the little lad took quite a shineing to trin. then the owner came out of nowhere and appoligised,but i felt i had to say sorry to her as 'pops'(that was his name) had a bath from trin. i wish i had my camera,it was so sweat these to dogs so different in everyway but the best of friends after one meating. since then we've seen pops afew times and trin loves him. wouldnt they make interesting pups!? umm,i dont think,lol |

I was gutted when I found out he'd died, one of the few breeds I'd have if I decided on a big dog again. Becky |
