Hi All,

My name is Brad, I am new to the forum and wanted to say hi. I own a male Cane Corso named "Blue" and a male Boerboel named "Parka". Parka is just a pup, about 6 months old, and Blue is 2.5 years old. They are both great dogs.

While they spend most of their time sleeping on our couch or riding around town with my wife, Blue and Parka are actually working dogs. Their job is to help protect our property from predators during the warmer months of the year.

We also own some Caucasian Ovcharka who are working dogs as well. Their job is to protect our property from predators at night (when it's cool) and in the winter months. They are also wonderful dogs.

Anyway, it's nice to be here. Thanks!
~Brad

Hi Brad and nice to see you here!

How is Blue and the crew hanging out? Any new pics of that cute new puppy of yours?

Hope all is well.

Hi and welcome! Beautiful Boerboel pup. But as I remember from other forums you always have great pictures.
Looking forward to you input here.

Thanks everyone for the welcome! I was stoked when I found a mastiff forum. Mastiff breeds are secretly becoming my favorite.

I'll post some more pics in a bit... :)

Welcome! would love advice about how I could learn more about Caucasian Ovcharkas.
I'd be happy to answer any question you might have. As for learning resources, it's hard to find good non-biased and non-sensational info on the internet about CO, unfortunately.

If you are geographically close to us, you're welcome to visit our COs. :)

That's not the best shot of Masha, she was blowing her coat... but it's the most recent pic I have.
