Bogey is my first Bulldog, but in the line of bulldog mentality, I have had 2 bullmastiffs- all males. Duncan McCloud we got as an adult, retired show dog/stud. He was the sweetest, gentlest dog ever! We only had him 2 years and he developed brain cancer, but we made him king of our house and he died a very happy man! Then after swearing I would NEVER get another dog, I heard from the breeder that we got Duncan from- she was expecting a litter of pups and the dad was Duncan's brother- 'nuff said, I was sold! I got pick of the males, and enter Murphy McCloud Irish Stout. He was my life saver through breast cancer and then losing my husband of 31 years to cancer. Murph was by my side every minute and got me thru the worse days of my life! Murph died 1 1/2 years ago at age 6 from bone cancer. My heart was broken. I SWORE I would NEVER have another dog. Hmmmm...... enter Bogart Humphrey McCloud. What can I say?
