I am so happy for you both! He is beautiful! I've always liked brindles and hadn't even heard of a Mastiff until someone put a pic in another thread. I was discussing with Kay the other day that I thought I might like one some day but didn't know if I could handle all the slobber We are going to get some wonderful pics when I get there. Did you get my msg about me leaving earlier? Bon will probably make Duke look like a little bitty dog. I love the one of him sleeping on the shoes. I hope he brings you much happiness.
