🐾 English Mastiff x Anatolian Shepherd Puppies — Minnesota
Big, steady, and born to guard.
These pups come from serious working stock — not just family pets playing farm, but two dogs actively doing the job every day.
Meet the parents:
Rollo, our sire, is an AKC-registered Anatolian Shepherd who works a local organic dairy farm — guarding livestock is simply what he does. Koda, the dam, carries English Mastiff alongside her guardian breeding and spends her days working a hobby farm, coming home to our family each evening. Together they bring the size and calm presence of the Mastiff with the sharp guarding instinct of the Anatolian.
Raised right, from day one
Born right in our home in Minnesota, these puppies grow up immersed in exactly the environment they're bred for. From the start, they're handled and socialized with kids and people every single day, so they grow up confident, trustworthy, and easy to live with. As they age the puppies are introduced to our sheep, goats, chickens, ducks, and move to sleep outside. They grow to become not just capable guardians, but genuinely good companions.
Why this cross works
English Mastiffs bring size, a calm, steady temperament, and a natural protective instinct toward their family. Anatolian Shepherds bring independence, intelligence, and serious working guardian drive. Together, this cross produces a substantial, capable guardian dog suited for farms, homesteads, or families who want a loyal, watchful presence.
What to expect
• Large, substantial working-breed puppies suited for farm or acreage life
• Early exposure to livestock (poultry, sheep, goats) and other dogs
• Daily socialization with children and people from birth
• Calm, steady temperament balanced with strong natural guarding instinct

Frequently Asked Questions
About
English Mastiff
Puppies
What's it like owning a English Mastiff?
Mastiffs are far from the imposing beasts they may appear to be. This breed is the heaviest dog around, but judging by their personalities, most of that weight lies in their hearts. Mastiffs are kind, gentle souls who protect if needed but would choose a hug over hostility any day.
How do English Mastiffs behave around young children?
English Mastiffs are generally not the best fit for families with young kids. Mastiffs are good with children and get along well with other dogs and pets with socialization. Their good-natured temperament lends well to families with children, and they often put up with playing, pranks, and hijinks without batting an eye. They're relatively quiet and don't bark much.
Are English Mastiffs couch potatoes or do they need a lot of exercise?
In spite of their imposing size, the adult Mastiff doesn’t need a ton of exercise. These dogs enjoy walks around the block, a light job, or playtime in a large, fenced-in yard. Mastiff puppies shouldn’t be overly exercised because they need all of their energy to grow strong bones and put on weight. Overall, their exercise needs are moderate.
What kind of coat care does a English Mastiff require?
Mastiffs have a short-haired, fawn (light-yellow brown) coat that ranges in color from silver to apricot to dark brindle. These dogs are recognizable by their black mask, ears, and nose. Because their hair is so short, the Mastiff’s coat needs little attention; brushing them with a rubber brush once in a while should do the trick. Grooming-wise, this breed is low-maintenance.
Do English Mastiffs need a big yard?
English Mastiffs are best suited for a house with a good-sized yard. Mastiffs are ill-suited for hot weather and prefer life indoors where they can relax on a soft pillow or cold tile. Because of their size, Mastiffs aren’t practical for apartments and will be more comfortable in homes with a yard. They are moderately trainable with consistent effort.
