Hey all I just adopted an English mastiff female (Lucy) that we didn't know her age till now , she was used for breeding and only breeding and she was found in a cage in a garden and the women who is breeding her didn't say anything about her but people living in the area said that Lucy was in a cage for the last year we can also see this from her teeth three front teeth are broken we think that it's from trying to escape. One vet said she's 8 years and the other said she's above 6 I don't believe them both I think she is 5 max but I don't know and i don't care. She's in good health except for some skin problems but under treatment now. She's under weight (54 kg) and she walks normally without any problems in her bones. Any advice would be helpful to me as its my first giant pet. She's now a part of the family she's living with Molly my golden retriever female 1.7 months Thanks

Oh my goodness! How wonderful for Lucy to be emancipated by you! Feed her good quality food, love her as much as she can stand, let her set the adaptation pace...and ask anything specific you are wondering about where people here might help.

Hi and congratulations on your newest family member! Thank you for saving her from the life she used to have.

Wow. SO glad she found a new home with a loving family - and even a doggie friend! I second the 'go slow' recommendation. Let her have time to adjust to her new environment and come to you. Once she knows she has safety and security with you, I'm sure she'll blossom into a wonderful companion.
Another Thank You! For taking her into your home and your heart!

What a lucky girl Lucy. Thanks so much for taking her in! I hope you can give an update. We also have a rescuer who was used for breeding. She has been such a wonderful addition as I'm sure Lucy has been for you.
