This lovely baby photo of Sabra at 7 weeks was our first glimpse of Sabra- taken by her breeders, Shiela and Jeff Systo.         

At nine months of age, after winning her first major, Sabra and Dad had the thrill of winning 'Best Puppy' at the SSMF show in Priceville Alabama, under respected breeder-judge Dr. William Newman.

Sabra is athletic, silly and playful, intelligent and sensitive. A high energy Mastiff with much larger bone and substance than most bitches, and lots of breed type.  Below she is shown on our front steps at four months of age.

Sabra has been owner handled by her Dad. She needs only one major to finish

OLD NEWS- I am very excited to share news of Sabra's upcoming litter in early December 2004 -  probably the most anxiously anticipated and carefully planned event in our family's lifetime. As with our last Mastiff litter in 1993, this undertaking means that our entire lives will revolve around the new babies for quite some time. It's time for our little Mastiff family to grow a bit although we will never have more dogs than we feel comfortable sharing our home with.

I will post regular photos of the new babies and you can follow their development by checking our site regularly after their arrival. Check back on December 4 ,2004 to see what beautiful babies Sabra and Dugan produce
