At Glacier Mastiffs regardless if a puppy is sold as show or pet the health guarantee is the same. The only difference in a pet puppy is demand, or a physical characteristic as too much white or coat or some other flaw cosmetically.  This will not affect the quality of the pup as a pet.  The quality is still the same as a show puppy.  All puppies will be sold with an AKC limited registration and must be spayed or neutered.

No Breeder can claim or guarantee that a puppy sold as a show puppy will get their championship.  We can only choose to the best of our ability. It is more important to us that a puppy gets a good loving home.

Although we offer a full health guarantee and do our best to breed strong healthy pups we can not say that exceptions to the rule can happen and something comes up. We will back up our dogs with proof of a genetic disorder.

We do our best to breed top quality Mastiffs with excellent pedigrees. Taking into consideration pedigree, health, temperment and standards. We fully health test our dogs and require health testing on the dogs we breed to.

Puppy-Proofing:

 

Raise up all things that you do not want chewed up. They are just puppies and they will chew.

 

Child safety locks on kitchen and bathroom cabinets where cleaners and medications are kept

 

Keep garbage out of reach

 

Wrap up electrical cords so they are less noticable to the puppy

 

Raise all houseplants above their reach. Many of these plants are toxic

 

Prepare a place for their  food and water.

 

Set up a location for the puppy to be when you have to leave. Please do not ever tie up your puppy or full grown Mastiff

 

Excercise pens are great for this or a blocked off laundry room or kitchen all work great.

 

Bringing home your new puppy.Your new mastiff puppy should have already had its first set of vaccinations and have been wormed by the breeder. But will probably need another worming and another set or 2 of vaccinations

The first thing you need to be aware of is that even though your puppy has been vaccinated, your pup is “NOT” fully protected from diseases until it has all of its puppy shots and kennel cough vaccines

Do not let the puppy greet or play with strange dogs.

Do not let your puppy sniff where other dogs, or sniff where other dogs have gone to the bathroom.

Do not let your puppy eat from a dish that another dog has used.

Feeding

For the first 2 weeks, only feed your mastiff puppy the food the breeder recommended, after 14 days start introducing new foods and snacks. The reason for this is if the puppy you have just bought gets sick you will know it is not from a change in food or diet.  Plus, you always want to gradully change a dogs diet. Never feed cooked pork, beef or chicken bones they can splinter but you may give them raw bones.

REMEMBER, even though your mastiff puppy is large, it is still a baby and will sleep a great deal.

Do not take your puppy for a walk any farther then you can carry it back” . When your puppy is tired it will lie down and not move. Do not let your puppy play rough with other dogs and I recommend restricted play.  Their joints and bones just are not ready for rough play and can easily get injured. Please do not let your puppy climb up and down the stairs this is hard on thier hips plus they could easily fall or jump.

Please Never ever let your Mastiff or any other pet ride in the back of a truck!

To prepare for your new mastiff puppy you should buy.

An extra large dog crate I buy the 48 inch x 30 inch with a divider to expand as puppy grows.

Blankets and bedding.

Stainless Steel Food and water dishes.

An adjustable dog collar, I like the martingale type of collars they are nylon as well as chain so you have a slight choke chain response but is safe and a 6' Leash I prefer leather

Lots of hard chew toys. Nyla bones, Kong, but no rawhides or greenies

Dog food do not feed Large Breed Puppy food it is too high in Protein use an adult maintenance.

Lots of Drool towels for paws and lips placed all over the house.
