OK so I have had 3 calls in the last 2 months about the Nebolish Mastiffs. I had someone ask me if I knew a breeder of them because they read that they were developed to be rid of all the health issues that English Mastiffs have. HUH? Anyone have any experience with these dogs? http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/nebolishmastiff.htm http://voices.yahoo.com/what-may-like-know-nebolish-mastiff-5531501.html

From Wiki:
Over the past few centuries the Old English Mastiff, well known as the Mastiff, has been perfected in the Nebolish Mastiff, from crossbreeding to several breeds of molloser type dogs – all being dogs of the working class.

I didn't realize that Mastiffs have more health issues than other breeds.
I also didn't realize that Mastiffs need perfecting. When anyone one looks at a well bred Mastiff, they are usually somewhat awestruck. That is perfection.

Figured I'd be polite and quote another source rather than use my own words.

They should abolish the Nebolish!

After reading the dogbreedinfo description of the development of the breed, it appears that a Nebolish can be a mix of about anything. In the future, when someone contacts you looking for a Nebolish, tell them to go to their local shelter and pick a dog and call it a Nebolish. They won't be too far off.

from the dogbreedinfo page posted above " ... and some even claim it to be a mix". I just can't help but laugh at this.
