Hi everyone
New member here
I found this forum after searching for reputable Neapolitan mastiff breeders.
I am planning for a female puppy but not for about 24 months yet. I do have experience with this breed.
Unfortunately it is a minefield when it comes to this breed as they have myriad health issues and I will be very selective this time round and am prepared to wait for the right mating.
I'm from UK (willing to import) and these are my requirements:
Mother and father hip tested, eye tested, heart tested
Standard type, not typey and DEFINITELY not excessive
No excessive flank and no loose skin around joints.
Dogs must look and be athletic and not sloppy.
Both parents must not have had cherry eye or treatment for it with veterinary proof
No ectropion and no entropion visible on either parent
Must be registered of course
If anyone can offer assistance or knows of a breeder who meets all these requirements I would be extremely grateful
Thanks!
