About Masterpiece Mastiffs

Welcome!

We are the Falvo family of Massachusetts. We first became interested in the Mastiff breed because my husband as a boy entered the foster care system at just 11 years old. He was understandably devastated being separated from his family. The very best memory that he has of that time in his life was the big Mastiff his first foster family had a giant apricot male named Brutus.

Brutus became his best friend, protector, and confidant. Brutus made him feel safe, and slept on the bed with him each night. He still recalls stories how he played pranks with the help of his giant friend, and how Brutus was such a big part of that time in his life. Mastiffs are the gentlest of breeds, but are also protectors.  For a small boy having a giant Mastiff to protect him, Brutus gave him confidence in a very difficult situation... something he has never forgotten.

Years later he remembered that big dog Brutus, and his continued affection for the breed  prompted him to purchase our first mastiff.  'Kitty Kitty Boom Boom' , aka  "Boom Boom" would became the first of many mastiffs, and later,  the mom and grand-mom to many of our puppies. 

As a family we are completely devoted to the Mastiff breed! We love the amazing temperaments, and are constantly amazed by their gentle, but protective nature. They are the most intuitive of dogs!  We have taken our dogs to the local adult group home to visit the residents. The residents all love when the dogs visit, because they are so very kind, gentle, and loving to each and every person that they meet. 

We made the decision to start our own breeding program years ago, after we found that not everyone has the same standards regarding testing and health, or even temperament.

We intend to do our best to breed healthy mastiffs, by using the technology afforded us by the advances in DNA and health testing.  Our health testing results are available, and are shared on our website, and the OFA website. We do everything in our power to make sure that our
dogs are given the best chance at a long and healthy life. None of the dogs from our breedings will ever end up in a shelter or rescue, because we will always take back a dog from one of our breedings at any time, at any age, for any reason.

We hope you will come to enjoy and love this amazing breed like we do. 

Thank you,
The Falvo Family
