I just heard through the grapevine that Gloria Davis has deserted her dogs and they are dying - and that the beautiful puppy, Tilly, that I sold Gloria four years ago is lying dead in the mud. Tilly was a littermate to my Rogue and Angel and Eartha - WTF is going on? I hope some one can get to the bottom of this - quick - and save any dogs that are left. What a sin this is - I am in shock.
Be sure to see the pictures I posted below...
Why didn't she call me and let me take her back and care for her.. better to let her die in the mud? GRRRRR!@!

We do not breed often, but we do our best to breed top quality mastiffs
with excellent pedigrees to back them up. All breedings are carefully planned to produce
the very best mastiffs, sound in both body and mind, beautiful and strong,
representing the true mastiff standard.
We fully test our dogs. We believe that a person that "just wants a pet" has a right
to own a beautiful, well bred dog that is sound and healthy
every bit as much as someone wanting a "show dog".

Linda, I hope that you can confirm what's going on and there's been some horrible mistake in what you were told!!

I sure hope this isn't true. I drove out to Tennessee and bought my puppy Truman from Gloria last August. The conditions didn't appear that great, but I had already committed and she indicated she was in the process of moving. It looked like she had her hands full. I sure hope all those beautiful Mastiff's weren't abandoned that would be very sad.

Is Gloria in TN? or is she in NC? I know she was in NC for a while. If she is in NC I will absolutely go and get whatever dogs I can. We need more information!!!!

Maybe Gloria is lying somewhere hurt or sick? Did she live alone? She's been breeding for years and it's hard to think she'd do something like that... Linda, I can't begin to tell you how sorry I am about your baby if all of this is true. Wouldn't she know enough to call someone in rescue or other breeders for help? I am just hoping the "grapevine" is wrong.....

When I saw her last August in Tennessee she was getting ready to move, which I believe she did. As was mentioned her website says she relocted to South Carolina.

Does anyone know her physical address in Linden, TN? I will go there tomorrow to see what is going on. But there is no listing for her in our local phone directory or on directory assistance. I know what road she is suppose to live on, but it would help if I knew a house number. Who saw that there were dogs in need there? Can they meet me to show me, so we can see what can be done?

Linda, Can you please call me (910)224-2124 ASAP. I just spoke with the NC coordinator of Southern States Mastiff Rescue and she would like for me to get some more information if possible. Obviously time is of the essence. If there are dogs there that can be saved then that should happen!!!! Thanks Jennifer I looked on your web site for a phone number, but was unable to find one.

Sadly NO mistake...the authorities are there right now...Linda, your hair would curl at the pictures of your beautiful bitch's demise....and just HOW Ch Max, the winner of Veteran's at Bucks finished his life! Still unburied! Flaming should come LATER... I would quarter her personally! It's the IMMEDIATE need we should concentrate on! Here & now! BTW..Gloria is in 7th heaven with a new lurve....so she is NOT at the zenith of depression as Liz Dagerdon was at the time! NO EXCUSES! I shut my mouth to what I saw in TN 3 years ago when I was in the USA with the view of importing a stud dog! All I can say, I MADE drastic changes for the quality of her dog's life at the time! Raised Gloria's level of conscience! The quality of life for her dogs. All this had to be under a blanket of secrecy until a couple of days ago when I EXTRACTED information from a THREATENED, frightened, frail, caring person, her landlady! Easy for us to judge & jury! LIVE the life, the threats...NOT so easy to DARE to call for help! We may need to raise bail...no NOT for Gloria!

Southern States Mastiff Rescue is getting involved. I just spoke with Anderson County Animal Control and the Anderson County Sheriffs Department. Both agencies have been on the property and are working this case. I have turned the information I got over to the coordinators at SSMR and they will work their magic. SSMR has great volunteers in South Carolina and hopefully they will be able to get to some of these dogs in time. What I find very disturbing is that people within the Mastiff community have known about this situation for quite some time and haven't done anything to stop it or change it!!!!!! WTF?????

OK this memory of mine just spit out some old Gloria trivia. This is not the first time she has done this.Many years ago on the old Mastiff yahoo email group, Glorias then life partner ( woman named Pete) had also posted that Gloria had taken off somewhere and abandoned a bunch of dogs on her property.
I am almost sorry that I deleted the inactive group, It would have been nice to be able to hand the posts over to the prosecution. Does anyone remember how to get in touch with Pete ? I remember she was a truck driver. Maybe Maria knows ? Or Lorie ?

I have already told several people--I am less than 2 hours away and I can go TODAY. All someone needs to do is let me know. I can bring some of the dogs here. Rescue--If I was you I wouldn't turn down help--from what I have learned you are going to need all the help you can get.

As for me ..I can sincerely say, I knew NOTHING, ( this is NOT about saving my skin!...I want to save the DOGS!) Gloria has been corresponding with me haphazzardly saying ALL was OK...her landlady NEVER dared to let on untill 3-4 days ago...I acted straight away by sending over some money to feed Gloria's dogs & to deworm the pups....she was NOT ALLOWED to touch them b4!!!!!

I am not a tearful person--those who know I am pretty tough. I can tell you this is going to be hard for me. Max is the sire of my Gracie & Hope--to know that he lays dead on the frozen ground and unburied tears my heart apart. Jill, I may cry the whole time I'm there--but I will go and do whatever you need me to do. I can bring some of the younger dogs here and care for them until they can be placed. I have my vet standing by. He will see them as soon as I get them up here. Just give me the word. Linda--I ddin't know anything about any of this--I wish I had because I would have gone and down something. I am so sorry about Tilly. I wish Kazia had called me. Kazia and I have had our differences--but I would have gone immediately and helped her.

Linda my heart goes out to you I can not imagine the hurt,anger and disgust I would feel if one of my beautiful babies had such a demise. I would want blood. IMO I hope Gloria Davis is prosecuted THIS TIME people do not need to keep their mouths shut and keep this sort of thing quite just look at what can happen. It happened yet again and innocent Mastiffs paid with their lives for secrecy . This woman should never be able to own a dog again of any breed. I hope some Mastiffs can be saved and I want to hear she in jail. Good luck to all who are helping out.

Guys thank you, you are sooooo WONDERFUL willing to help. I did think that like me, Mastiff blood flowed in Gloria's veins as well. There was something animalistically uncanny about her knowledge of her dogs....that's what kept me hooked in...sadly she was always shackeled by lack of funds...and her innate hurt from time to time translated to almost a vege of temporary cruelty. The compelling pictures CANNOT be dismissed lightly! I have not stopped crying these past few days....and feel a terrible compassion for her Landlady who was forced to LIVE the LIE in SILENCE!

I am not a tearful person--those who know I am pretty tough. I can tell you this is going to be hard for me. Max is the sire of my Gracie & Hope--to know that he lays dead on the frozen ground and unburied tears my heart apart. I've been a cop for 14 years and am not a tearful person either. Max was Truman's grandfather. When we went to buy Truman we drove to Tennessee from Colorado to pick him up. I had sent Gloria a deposit and lets just say I started feeling uncomfortable about it so I decided I was going to go there in person and either get my 500 dollars back or my puppy. I was about to walk away and not take Truman when Gloria brought Max out. My wife who has never been around Mastiff's in her life just melted. He was the epitomy of what a Mastiff should be. The thought of that regal Mastiff lying dead in the mud makes my blood boil. I've shed a few tears this afternoon also. I live in Colorado, in a single family home with my wife, daughter, and Truman but if one of those dogs needs a home I will drive to South Carolina or somewhere else along the way to make that happen. Mike

Animal Control has seized the dogs from the property!!!! This information is still a bit fuzzy, but it looks like they took 5 puppies and 4 adults.....alive. There were also deceased dogs on the property. A person living on the property has told authorities that Gloria has recently moved about 10 Mastiffs to Florida. It can only be assumed that these dogs are not being cared for either. If any of you Florida people know where she may be located, please don't hide her and please step up for those dogs!!!!!

Evidently the authorities found some more carcusses hidden...and some puppy skaletons stuffed into a dry food bag hidden away on the edge of the property. Her landlady thought she picked up some of her dogs....they MAY?? be the other carsusses??? "This woman should never be able to own a dog again of any breed." I sincerely AGREE! Re this horrible twist of events...please let us think of that Austrian creep who kept her daughter a prisoner in the cellar, fathering 7?8? of her children for some 20 odd years ...living a ' normal' life!

The dogs are being kept on Kazia's property--so Kazia's dogs may also be subjected to seizure by animal control. Kazia has been under treatment for the past year plus for re-curring Cancer--she is not a totally well person. I can not imagine how she has dealt with the stress and horror of what was going on. However, she should have spoke up way before now. Physical abuse and threats can be dealt with the law. Help is always available--you just need to open up your mouth and ask.

I'm at a complete loss and I don't know Gloria and I don't have any of her pups. My heart breaks for you, Linda and all those who have pups from Gloria. My heart breaks most for those dogs (living and deceased) who put their trust in that woman to care for them and who watched her walk away from them and waited patiently for her return. She should never be permitted to care for anything ever again. I'm shocked at the level of cruelty, particularly from someone that, 2 days ago, I would have referred to as a "reputable breeder". Please let us know what you need - food, donations, blankets, anything at all.

Oh God, those poor, poor dogs. Linda, I am so very sorry to hear about Tilly. I can just imagine your heartbreak and fury. What a horrible situation. I hope the dogs in FL are found and she signs them over to rescue. I hope if this is all true, that Gloria is prosecuted and serves time. Unfortunately, the animal cruelty laws in so many states are so weak that real jail time is a rarity. I'm glad the info is out there...I wonder if things would be different now if people wouldn't have covered it up the last time she did this. How sad.

Is pride and reputation so important that an innocent animal has to suffer and die? These dogs depend on us for litterally everything, including love and respect! Shame on you Gloria, God will see your punishment through! Shame on those of you who knew of her horrible secret as well, God to will see your punishment through! I'm really far away, but anything, anything at all I can do to help I most certainly will.........my heart is just sick thinking of those poor babies!

The hell with prosecution....chain her to a tree and walk away. Eileen you are right...she has done this before but there was someone else there to take care of the animals. This woman should never be allowed to own another animal. If she is now in Florida and still has dogs whoever knows where she is needs to speak up before this happens again. All those totally innocent lives treated like they were nothing......something must be done to stop this woman. LisaG

Right now I am so horribly upset and angry and mad - so, so mad - why did she not call me and tell me she could not care for Tilly? Why did Kazia not tell me what was going on? She KNEW that Tilly came from me and she KNEW that I would have taken her back.. she has been in contact with me for other things, several times a week. She NEVER mentioned that she was with Gloria or that any of this was going on. My poor baby - left to starve and freeze to death.. the pictures say it all. I hate myself for ever sending Gloria Davis a dog.. I thought she was very different.
Permission granted to cross post.. anything to stop this from happening again.

We do not breed often, but we do our best to breed top quality mastiffs
with excellent pedigrees to back them up. All breedings are carefully planned to produce
the very best mastiffs, sound in both body and mind, beautiful and strong,
representing the true mastiff standard.
We fully test our dogs. We believe that a person that "just wants a pet" has a right

Catie, I agree in essence...but u need to walk the walk in the PERSON'S shoes! I EXTRICATED the infomation from Kazia a few days ago...acted immediately by trying to help her and telling her also that she MUST seek help! I must say I sensed for ages things were NOT as I was presented.... None of you realise just HOW intimidating Gloria, built like a brick sh```house is & the temper she has! It's easy for us to judge...how many of us have cancer in remission in frail health being threatened never to see our family again????...and for that matter...how many women DIE by the hands of people restraining orders are taken out against??? Good old police did NOT act immediately! I SHOULD have spoken out when I was in TN 3 years ago....she was always waiting for the ' axe to fall'... I MISJUDGED her myself...I felt I did enough to get her back on the straight an narrow! I was dying to catch up with some other Mastiff folk, but the PAIN in some of her dogs eyes compelled me to stay! I DID make a difference...some of her poor dogs NEEDED to be euthanazed....I offered to PAY! but now that evidence comes to light...she would have been done for ' cruelty'. Catie you are a wonderful caring woman, but also need to look at the trap Kazia was in. Imagine having to live with it feeling POWERLESS...

Oh my gosh - this has got to be one of the cruelest acts on a living creature I've ever been made aware of. My heart is breaking for you, Linda. And for everyone involved. This Gloria Davis person is just not well. No sane human being would do this to an animal. (And for the record - I believe MVick to be sick and twisted as well.) Insanity. Bowing my head in prayer for those pups that suffered through all of this.

Does anyone know how to reach Kazia? I tried to call her from the last number she tested me from in December (telling me all was well), but got a generic answering machine. I am told she is traveling to Florida with 1o dogs and that all of her dogs are o.k. She has TWO of my dogs and I am desperate to find out if they are o.k and where they are. And, I am in Florida. One is a huge fawn bitch named Dalila, she is almost 6 years old, the other is a fawn male, big head with an undershot bite, 4 years old named Bozley. I can't believe Kazia would not call me about this, she has called me when she had problems before. I am getting calls with a lot of different information and have made a few calls, but I really just want to speak to her and know where my dogs are and if they are really alive AND I want to see them physically. I just need to know where my dogs are. For those that know their dogs are gone, I am so so sorry. Linda, I could not look at the pictures...I can't even imagine. Now I know what people feel like after a plane crash waiting to know if their loved ones are alive!! If you have any information, you can post it here, e mail me privately plumbrgirl@bellsouth.net or call me 305-247-8600 Thanks Suzie

The tears just have not stopped... This is not a thread I wanted to have to say this on. It breaks my heart. Three years ago I tried to warn other breeders of Who she really was. I took pictures of the horrible conditions, after she physically attacked me and the things she did to my children and no one wanted to believe me!! I watched a dog being over medicated so the dog would constantly bash his head and turn in circles for days. Both Amisha and I offered to take the dog to the vet and she would not let us. Her basset hound walked on her teats and had black masses hanging from them, she did nothing for her. I know Amisha and I were witness to some horrible animal cruelty, without the mention of her feeding my puppies alcohol in their formula bottles to dehydrate them, she almost killed them all. I wanted to go back and steal the dogs then but I could not for fear of my own life,she shoots her dogs with a B.B. gun I tried to tell some other breeders of these conditions in hopes they would believe my story and help the dogs and help me get out of there, but Gloria is a wonderful story teller and a great liar!! I was the one that was wrong in other peoples eyes. She stole my diamond ring, my credit cards, and I found pictures of my children sleeping in there underwear in her room. After her physically attacking me I left with a heavy heart for all the dogs. That is the last contact I have had with Gloria Davis. Even though we have had our differences, this knowledge is very concerning to me.

All of this is just so sad. No animal should have to suffer like this and be subject to this type of cruelty. I sincerely hope that the law catches up with Gloria Davis and she gets prosecuted for this. Or maybe as Lisa says, tie her to a tree and walk away....
