Bull Mastiff

Tia – 4 year old female Bull Mastiff


Hello, my name is Tia and I’m a 4 year old female, Bullmastiff. I arrived at The Mayhew because my owner felt she no longer had the time to care for me properly.

When I first arrived I was a little shy and withdrawn but it didn’t take long for me to come out of my shell. I’ve now made lots of friends at The Mayhew and I enjoy spending time in the adoption officer’s office during the day, where I get to meet lots of different people. I’m usually too lazy to get out of my bed to greet strangers but for people I’ve met before I always make the effort to get up and greet them politely. I am a calm, quiet and gentle girl and I’m also eager to please. I have been well trained and I know all the usual commands.

I’m looking for a new home with someone who has a lot of love to offer me. I’m very affectionate and love spending time with people. I would be suitable for a first time owner who is looking for a large breed dog providing you are fully prepared for the hard work and commitment involved in caring for a dog and you will need to have researched my breed type. I would also suit someone who worked fulltime providing I’m not left alone for longer than four hours without a break e.g. by hiring a dog walker, pet sitter, or by coming home at lunch time etc. I would be happy to live children of any age, other dogs and cats. I won’t ask for much just plenty of love and an hour’s off lead exercise daily in a park or open space. My new guardians will be taking on a ten year commitment, which must not be taken lightly.

I hope to see you soon, Tia

Lizzy – 2-2 1/2 year old female Bull Mastiff


This is Lizzy, she is a lovely gentle 2 – 2 1/2 year old Bull Mastiff girl who was abandoned at the local vets after being treated for a sore on her hip, from there she  then ended up being sent to the pound and found her way to rescue. She was chronically underweight when she arrived and has slowly regained her weight and health over the last couple of months.

She is very people friendly despite her obvious mistreatment, however she doesn’t seem to want the company of other dogs, so we are looking for a home where Lizzy will be the only dog. If you can offer the Lizzy the home she deserves please give us a call and we will happily chat to you

Sugar – 1 year old female Bull Mastiff


This is Sugar, she is a 1 year old female Bull Mastiff who was tied to the gates of the rescue during the night. When discovered she was a very frightened little girl , but appeared to recover from her ordeal quickly.

Sugar is another little girl who is lovely with humans but will not tolerate certain other dogs. She does appear to not like males that are a lot bigger than her and we are working with her on this.

She will need a home that is prepared to work with her and be aware that she does have some problems that will need to be addressed. If you would like more information or a chat about whether you might be the home that Sugar needs please give us a call .
