Q. & A. with Paul
Why did you start breeding?
I was introduced to the Pyrenean Mastiff in 1997. At that time, there were none in the USA prior. Since then, it has been my goal to expand and preserve the line. I take my role as a breeder very seriously and believe that today's breeders are the guardians of the future Pyrenean Mastiffs.
What makes your program special?
Our goal is to not only produce beautiful puppies but to help promote responsible breeding that will ensure Pyrenean Mastiffs will continue to thrive and excel for generations to come.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
