A bout of encouragement for any bordeaux fans, we recently lost a bordeaux but we got her to 10, and another bordeaux we had stuck around till she was 8. Getting this breed to old age is making sure you look after them properly, both of ours were kept lean and got regular walks and exercise. Keeping dogs (especially large ones!) at a healthy weight is so so vital as it puts less strain on everything (e.g. joints, heart, breathing etc.) :)

About two years ago she quickly put on about 20lbs on her 110lb frame and she began to get flaky, crusty skin on her back. The vet diagnosed her with hypothyroidism and once she was properly medicated the skin issue resolved on its own. Apparently, dogs need like 6x the dose a human needs in order to treat the condition. She is calm and very much an easy-going and gentle giant.

The boarding facility where my family kept our horses had two bull Mastiffs. In the day time during open hours they laid around in the tack room. They were friendly and never bothered anyone. However, after closing hours, these dogs were anything but friendly, woe to the dummy who had inspirations of breaking in and stealing anything, from the tack room or anywhere around the stable areas and horses. Years later my aunt rehomed a female bull Mastiff. He name was Zelda and she was Such a good, sweet girl. Everybody loved her. However, if someone knocked on the door that she didn't know, she was all business, you had to let her know that they were OK. She understood that immediately, she was very intelligent and very perceptive. And she never forgot anyone she met, no matter for how short a time. On the other hand, anyone we didn't know that came around, would have been seriously injured, if not killed, had they come in to the yard or house. These dogs are not pushovers in any sense of the word. My aunt had been informed that this breed only has a life expectancy of five years or so. When Zelda turned five, we were all on high alert, but we had hoped that with exceptional love and care, she would live a few more years. When Zelda turned six, we really had high hopes for her, and she never showed any signs or symptoms of illness. My mother received a phone call at 3:00 am one morning, it was my aunt calling from an emergency veterinary hospital, Zelda seemed to be in abdominal distress, and my Aunt wasted no time rushing her to a vet. Zelda died that morning, she was 6 1/2 years old. The vet said that there wasnt anything that could have been done for her, she had reached the end of her natural lifespan. I had always wanted a Mastiff, until that day, six and a half years isn't even close to long enough for a dog to live, for me. I have always wondered why the people involved with the big dog breeds with short life spans like this don't try to do something, maybe out cross to other breeds, to try to improve their lifespan. But nice puppy, and as usual, a very good grooming job by you.

Mike Lange, the great Pittsburgh Penguins play-by-play guy was well known for his catch phrases. One of my favorites, after a great save or catch, was, "He's smiling like a butcher's dog." Nice to put a breed with the saying!

[@elisaastorino2881]

A fellow Penguins fan! ML was one of a kind. It was devastating when the local station changed hands and told him to stop his unique style of calling games... he told them to pack sand and spent the rest of his career on radio. The station kept changing hands and the play by play team they have now is perhaps the most boring I've ever heard in any sport. Unfortunately that seems to be the trend - generic and stereotypical broadcast school voices. Don't forget "buy Sam a drink and get his dog one too!"

I love mastiffs. Any kind of mastiff will do. They are huge but such gentle giants.

[@vilyar122]

Wow, he's only 11 months old? He's already the same size as you Vanessa! You can totally see his puppy face under all that skin, what a sweet boy!

I love this breed its my favourite my boy Puppet weighed a whopping 92kgs of pure muscle and was so protective of children and women sadly he passed ate the age of 8 with 3 different cancers. This breed was saved by a man named John Bordeaux, which gives them the name Le Dogg De Bordeaux

[@Nikki-tx6kh]

I love an almost 100kg dog named Puppet, because it's the kinda name you'll hear on small dogs.

[@mirandagoldstine8548]

I didn’t realize that’s where the Doge de Bordeaux name came from. I thought it was because they were first breed in Bordeaux, France.

[@mirandagoldstine8548]

@@Nikki-tx6kh Well they are little dogs at heart. Trust me I grew up with the English cousin of the Doge de Bordeaux, the bullmastiff. They really do believe they are tiny dogs who can fit on peoples lap. True gentle giants.

Reminds me of my old Belle, she was a Boxer/Mastiff mix. Your description was her to a T, she was so sweet and gentle that she'd let you take a treat right out of her mouth! Make sure to love your big sweet puppies!

It makes my heart hurt when you hear how short their lives are.

[@dianet1659]

My uncle had a Bull Mastiff who had eyes the same color. I have fond memories of Creed. Creed would play with his golf club like a twig. Once my Pekingese made the mistake of eating out of his bowl and Creed's mouth engulfed him and he walked away covered in salvia.

[@redschafer7804]

awe Creed would have been fast friends with my Bull Mastiff Goodie. the joke was her favorite chew to was the cat but in reality she just didn't know that there was 120lb weight difference between her and Morris the Maine coon cat and she just really wanted to play and be friends

[@KindCountsDeb3773]

the lady I got my bullmastiff from had a cocker spaniel and if she doted on the cocker, the bullmastiff would go over and put it's whole head in his mouth and lead it away. What are you going to do, say no?? lol. It was gentle and the dogs got a long well.

[@PossumLady8262]

He definitely deserved the sweet petals cologne. ❤️

[@KindCountsDeb3773]

very French !

[@nathanwilliams2152]

I always remember this breed being featured in 'Turner and Hooch'. Not a good stereotype for the breed I don't think, but I fell in love with them. My neighbour has one, and he always insists on putting his paws on my shoulders and giving me kisses. He just loves attention and playing games.

[@Norsilca]

That little kiss at 0:52 expresses exactly how I feel about this giant sweet boy.

[@JustMe-ks8qc]

Brutus is a sweetheart! I have only managed to meet and fuss one DDB, and was very surprised how soft and silky they are. Very friendly, too, I think she would have let me rub her ears right off.

[@mirandagoldstine8548]

Lucky you. I never met one. I’ve met multiple bullmastiffs and English mastiffs but never a Doge de Bordeaux. They look like sweethearts like their English cousins.

I love this breed❤️ My pup is a Dogue de Bordeaux X Bernese mountain dog, and he's the cutest with the biggest head as well. He's now two, and weighs 54kg. He looks like a beast but is actually the gentlest prince! The only downside is the drool, the never ending stream of slobber, the bane of my existence or rather my floor's. I love your videos and all the different breeds you groom, especially the large dogs. They are the sweetest but sometimes get odd looks for "being big and scary".

[@ConfusedandFrustated]

This bordeaux had a really nice looking healthy muzzle! They usually have a shorter muzzle with noticible undershot. It is nice that they breed for healthier traits. could be a mix

[@KindCountsDeb3773]

My bullmastiff didn't know he could dominate me and basically haul me around. Whew. Wonderful breed. I'd like to get a big dog, but I'm 70 now and it would be impractical. But they don't need a lot of exercise, so that's good. I have teeny dogs now, a good choice for my lifestyle - and they THINK their big. lol

Aww what a big softie 💛 He loved having his facial and head massage 🥰

[@michelemoreira3832]

A friend of mine was owned by a Dog of Bordeaux. He was a SO SWEET BUT REALLY NOT GENTLE giant 🤣🤣🤣, always welcoming me jumping, liking and bitting my arms and ankles (yeah... I really never cared about love bites), and showing me his belly so I could pet him for hours. Unfortunately he died so young, between 1 and 2 yo, due to leishmaniasis. He was already infected when he arrived from the breeder, as we don't have the species of sandflies that are vectors of the disease in my city (the breeder was from another city). 😢😢😢

[@RexytheRexy]

I *LOVE* these guys - their big, beautiful heads, sweet eyes, and status as the worlds sweetest tank. What a beauty Mister Brutus is.
