Summary: Mastiff Magic
Comment: As a first-time Mastiff-owned person, I was very happy when I received this book as a gift. From the moment I opened it, I knew that this book would be my Mastiff bible. It is filled with historic facts (did you know that Mastiffs were declawed, by law, in the middle ages! ), amusing stories about Mastiffs (you'll see your own dog in these tales), medical information, top producing dogs and bitches, and tons of pictures... this book has it all. Breeders and owners alike will delight in reading this book over and over again. If you are even considering brining one of these gentle giants into your life, this book is a must-read. Mastiffs are not for everyone, but for those of us who are lucky enough to be owned by a Mastiff, I can assure you that this book will become your other best friend. dee dee Anderson knows her audience well; we all love Mastiffs as much as she does.

Summary: A Superb Reference for Owners and Breeders Alike!!!
Comment: deedee Andersson's book provides the best in mastiff reference. As an owner's guide, it provides a superb history of the breed, with sources and information not found anywhere else in the mastiff literature available today. One could not ask for a better reference on all aspects of raising a mastiff. The author's humor, insight, and experience are right on the mark to anyone who has ever had the privilege of being "owned by a mastiff". Perhaps even more significant to the reader who is also a breeder is the phenomenal amount of information on the dogs themselves.....pedigrees that are not easily available elsewhere....pictures of dogs whose names are "household words" in most mastiff breeding programs but who have not been seen by many of those breeding today. These things alone make this book a treasured resource. The mastiff community owes Mrs. Andersson a great debt for producing this work. "The Mastiff: The Aristocratic Guardian" is a rarety in a factual work. Not only does this book give the facts and provide reference, it also reads as easily as a really good book of fiction and is almost impossible to put down. Anyone who loves purebred dogs and is interested in the mastiff will find this work a pure pleasure to explore. For mastiff owners and breeders, this is NOT a book they can afford to miss. No mastiff library is complete without it.

Summary: Required reading from many top breeders
Comment: We've been researching breeders in the U.S. (California to Massachusetts), Canada and Australia for 2 years.
Let me tell you ... this book is REQUIRED reading for many of the top breeders.
Seemingly basic information such as "what type of food" is short-term information. DeeDee knows that the list of top quality dog foods changes every year. Food choice can also be a pedigree/line decision and is often in a puppy contract. Such basic information should be assessable from your quality breeder.
