Fawn English Mastiff Puppies

How To Buy Fawn English Mastiff Puppies

The American Kennel Club (AKC) does not rate English Mastiff as one of the most common or popular breed dogs. That’s why those who aspire to become mastiffs often adopt a puppy of this breed. Not all AKC-approved puppies are purebred but many come from purebred pedigrees. That’s why some Mastiff breeders choose to work with AKC registered purebreds and others use AKC “designer dogs.”

When a prospective buyer inquires about the AKC registration of their new puppy, he or she might ask about the AKC health guarantee. The answer is, of course, that I will take the puppy back under all circumstances.

Health guarantees are there so that breeders, like myself, don’t have to worry that a dog might suffer from health problems. A purebred puppy from AKC registration will always carry the full gene pool, and that means temperament, health, and overall health will be fine.

On the other hand, the puppies in this litter are not permanently identified.

Their mother may still have yet to be identified. She might still be alive or have been adopted out, or her offspring could be living with unknown or perhaps even lost relatives. AKC registration does not assure that the puppies are permanently identified. I always take the puppies back under these conditions.

The pedigreed English Mastiff puppies in this litter are going to have to meet very strict health requirements, as compared to “purebred” American Bulldogs. Those requirements start with at least a visit to the veterinarian’s office before they are introduced to the world of puppy-hood.

At that time, AKC registration papers will need to be provided. After that, the pet store or breeder will need to ensure the puppy is up to date on vaccinations and that he has received all necessary booster shots for his first year of life.

The puppies will continue to have yearly exams until they reach six months of age.

At six months of age, AKC registration papers will be provided. At this point, the puppy will need to have a written bill of sale with responsibilities for the buyer, and the responsibility for the breeder. After this paperwork is completed and approved by the responsible person (in my case, the pet store owner), I will take the puppy back under all of the responsibilities listed above. My goal is to provide the customer with a healthy and happy adult English Mastiff puppy.

When searching for puppies in shelters and rescues across the country, you will see many advertisements stating they are puppies found in pound auctions, dog pounds, or rescue groups. However, if you look closely at those advertisements you will find out very quickly that they are not the true puppies found in these places.

I do know from personal experience that many unscrupulous breeders prey on the unsuspecting puppy buyer who does not know English mastiff behavior. These puppy buyers agree with the breeder to purchase the puppy for the amount they are willing to pay for the puppy, never really knowing the true price. The true price can easily be much higher than the stated price.

My goal has always been to provide the most accurate information to my customers so that they can make an informed decision.

You must understand that when you are purchasing puppies from a breeder, the breeder is likely not using the word “fawn” with the description of their puppies because it has been determined by their veterinarian that these dogs are inbred and likely to have health problems.

It is the responsibility of the buyer to research the English Mastiff breeders that they are considering to ensure that they are reputable sources of obtaining the purest and healthiest puppies possible. Many wonderful English Mastiff breeders truly care about their dogs and take care of them as families should, but you must take the time to research to verify their reputation before placing your trust in their hands.

The final decision you will have to make concerning the puppies in this litter is whether you will allow the puppies to go to new homes or whether you will pursue the issue of registration.

If you allow the puppies to go to new homes, there is every chance that the puppies will not be permanently identified as English Mastiff puppies. This can actually cause more harm than good because if the new owners are not careful, the new owners could mistake the puppy as being another breed of puppy and sell it in the future.

On the other hand, registering the puppy can eliminate the need for more litters and it allows the English Mastiff breeders to track the histories of the dogs much more accurately in the future.

All things considered, both options provide excellent methods for ensuring that the English Mastiff puppy’s registration is never lost or misplaced and the American Kennel Club can always be assured that the English Mastiff puppy is not confused with other breeds of dogs.
