Dogue de Bordeaux 16 Month 2012 Calendar
Dogue de Bordeaux 16 Month 2012 Calendar. The Dog de Bordeaux is more widely known as the French Mastiff and is more similar to the recently developed Bullmastiff than to the ancient English Mastiff. This very old breed was originally used for boar and bear hunting in Southern France, and then for cattle driving. Because of its fearlessness, the French Mastiff was also used in the animal-baiting arena and the dog-fighting ring.
It was not until the breed appeared in an American film in 1989 with Tom Hanks that it attained any recognition outside France. Unlike the sloppy star of Turner and Hooch, the French Mastiff possesses formidable traits, such as relentless strength, wariness of strangers and an inclination to intimidate unknown people. This is a wonderful calendar which would make a great gift!FREE STANDARD UK P&P or from just £1.99 for Recorded Delivery!
