Bernie

Big beautiful Bernie is a lively, boisterous big blue 4 year old Neapolitan Mastiff lad who is currently in foster care while he is neutered and assessed.

He needs lead training and some behaviour work to deal with some resource issues (he is terrified the world will come and take his favourite treats from him!) but our canine behaviourist will provide all the necessary help to deal with this if he is rehomed in the South East or will refer the new owners to someone in their area who will be able to provide ongoing help.

He is a a typical young male in that if you give him an inch, he will take a mile and, as with most examples of the breed, if you leave him in no doubt as to who is the head of the family (i.e. the primary adult carers) with firm and consistent handling combined with positive reinforcement, he is a great companion. 

Our foster carer has reported absolutely no problems with him but it must be emphasised that our foster carers and assessors are very experienced and know how to get their relationship straight with a Neapolitan Mastiff within a very short time of meeting them! This is critical with this breed and Bernie is no exception; they need the perfect balance of leadership and love…
