Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 тра 2024
- He's HUGE & he's super loyal. He'll guard you and your family as well as snuggle on your sofa with you. He's France's best loved French Mastiff and Lionel Messi's dog of choice - The Dogue de Bordeaux - targeted by Hitler in World War 2 as he guarded his French owners so well, German soldiers were ordered to kill them all. This left this breed almost extinct but he recovered with a vengeance and he's back and one of the most popular guard dogs out there. Find out his history, life expectancy, how he behaves with other dogs and also with children.

This breed just makes you want to cuddle at all times.
Thank you for covering them. I am a proud father of a 3 year old DDB, he weighs whopping 150 pounds. They are laid back when they are around family but very active when it comes to guarding their territory. Have been keeping dogs for 28 years now but they are my favourite so far because of the experience he has given me.
My girl is 8 and still going strong. Kennel Club put life expectancy at 10yrs but mine has ancestors that made it to 12 for a dog this size that's not bad. It will break my heart when I lose her she is the best. 💖
❤I have a nine year old ♥️ He's been doing great! Can't imagine life without him
This gives me hope, I have a 4 month old girl and can't bear the thought.
DdB´s will always have a place in my heart !
As someone who had some of the only working Bordeaxs in the UK (premise guarding) I love this breed with all my heart, sadly since the French breed standard did away with the upper weight limit it has become harder and harder to get them with a good life expectancy meaning I will no longer have them(thanks show breeders)
I now with the aid and exposure to the episode you did with BoarBoel I now have them in training and they are incredibly similar in so many of the best ways but “hopefully” with a vastly improved life expectancy.
My Dogo Argentino grew up with a Bordeaux Dog, they were the best of friends.
Best dog ever !
Miss mine so much !
👍👍👍💕🇸🇪😎
Love this breed!

Absolutely gorgeous French De Bordeaux
Imagine being fully grown by age three only to pass away two years later. I could not deal with such heart break, especially with my dog turning six in a few months
I've got a 4 month old one and it breaks my heart to think about it.
Did it twice. First 4 years from the second 1 wk before his 8th. He had cardiomyopathy n so so wanted him to make to 8 but ultimately that was just love n my selfishness n he died in my arms at home n the pain of loss was truly unarming lost a part of me truly. Couldn't get a dog for 4 years. Always had a dog n he (Tyson rescue name) went everywhere with me, work, toook my van seats out passengers went in the back, he loved the pub had that place locked down for perperami's, n on the bench like a stone lion guarding the pub. They never leave you love n talk about him still, he knew everyone I was just his side kick.
Thank you Anneka for featuring the Dogue de Bordeaux. What a wonderful dog breed, would like them to be more healthy though. Keep up the good work.
My wife and me have a 2 year old female Dog De Bordeaux and she does not drool but she is stubborn ,lazy, loving and the worlds fussiest eater
Beautiful dog... I think I'm going to watch Turner & Hooch now😁
BUT, don't let ANYONE tell you they don't drool that much. BELIEVE me they DO! My TV and furniture get hit daily! And you'll step in it too!!
Ha ha 😝
My first Love 💕💕 for a dog breed
This is my dream Dog.
Love you 💕💕 from India Himachal Pradesh
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Ours didn't
@@pissant7867 you're lucky!!
They are a beautiful breed ❤
I had one in the 90s and yes, they drool everywhere but he was the best dog. He was so good with my kids when they were younger and his best friend was my potbelly pig.
Aw 🫶🐺
AWWW! there just big sweethearts!
They are ❤️
I like what she said with children SET RULES and BOUNDARIES,,,,, this need to be giving to families who think of getting a dog breed
My favorite Breed
Intersting thing about the short lifespan - Beasley (the dog that played Hooch) actually lived to be 13, so it shouldn't be a given that they"ll all die very young. Perhaps they need some other breed(s) bred in for a few generations to help get that lifespan up and expand the gene pool. If you look at 'Hooch' he looked to be a lighter, leaner dog than these guys and some others you see. Those historic photos also showed these dogs to be lighter framed and have longer muzzles which would make their breathing better.
What a stunning dog
They are aren’t they?!
As a former Dogue de Bordeaux owner, I can say everything that was said about them in the video was correct. Their short life span is due to the fact that the gene pool the current Bordeauxs began with is so small. One thing about them that I wish were emphasized more before I got mine (and would be helpful to any prospective owner) is their heat intolerance. They are not suitable for hotter climates and can die from heatstroke due to their inability to cool themselves because of the shape of their muzzle and palette. They must not be outdoors for extended periods during high temperatures.
I love all dogs even though I got bitten in both of my legs by 2 large dogs when I was 12 years old. I was playing and running on the street and the stray dogs might annoyed to see me like that. Luckily my mom was there, so she quickly save me. She even told me not to run in front of dogs and she didn't even blame the dogs because most of the people in my country knows the dogs don't like someone strangers running in front of them. There are a lot of stray dogs in my country but most people including me love them. One of the good things about the stray dogs is they can alert you at night by barking when some thief come near the house or some strangers who are not from the quarter/village entering the area. That's why most people feed the stray dogs and let them live as they please.
I took on a rescue pup of a Bordeaux who was beaten and no hair from very bad mange. Took me a year to earn her trust but turned out to be such a beautiful dog. Just be ready to mop the walls as well as the floor.
Beautiful dogs my wife and I have two 11 months old so friendly and loving. ❤❤❤❤
These dogs will touch your heart. So deeply, we've had 2 of them. Their lives were cut very short. We got 6 years with Clyde. ( Cancer) and 5 with Max ( Heart Arrhythmia). It was an absolute pleasure being around this breed.
Thank Anneka.
Always look forward to your next one.
Lot of info I didn’t know about the breed in there, very good
Best dog ever.
Thank you for letting us have the information that we need about these dogs we learned a lot they are cute dogs
Love your vids , amazing work keep it up ❤ , also again pls do a karelian bear dog one 😅
I’ll try to find one
@@Animal-Watch I'm excited thx 😅
Haha they looked adorable when they were sleeping
Chocolate chip cookies and beer is all they need just kidding that was only hooch 😂
Best Dog I’ve ever had ! Hands down .
Very nice video Anneka. Have you heard of the Danish Broholmer? It's a mastiff breed but without a brachycephalic muzzle and not prone to drooling. Thought I'd suggest it to you for your channel.
I will check it out
@@Animal-WatchYes, Broholmer is a beautiful dog with a noble history. Can you also please do one on the Mastador (English Mastiff / Labrador mix). This is a mix growing in popularity. If you need a good breeder to showcase, checkout Melissa Bieber in Minnesota. Thank you for the excellent video.
I’m going to look them up right now.
Here in the Netherlands I was looking for the Broholmer. Only 2 breeders here. And it is really really really hard to get one! If you do, than you have to go to Denmark etc. You can't have them just as a pet. I beleave you have to be in a breeding program etc. That is what I saw on the websites of the breeders. I don't want that. I just want a sweet pet dog. A family friend. Now we are looking to get a greater swiss mountain dog. I love the movie Turner and Hooch! That got my attention for the Bordeaux dog. 5 to 6 years is way to short for me. We had a Rhodesian Ridgeback. He was a sweetheart. But I would love to have a dog that is more relaxed.
@@sonjaruiter6663 I'm sure there are Broholmer breeders who breed dogs for human companionship. I think it really comes down to what they find out from clients and what their intentions are. Maybe, and I could be wrong, there are clients who want dogs so that they can start their own breeding program but I don't think that's always the case. Nice you are looking for a Greater Swiss Mountain Dog - they're beautiful dogs. Good luck.
Thank you for finallly doing a vid on this breed!!
Best breed ever!!!

I love these dogs! ❤
Iv got a DDB, he’s 11 months and the best dog iv ever owned. He’s my best friend. Best way to describe him is simply a gigantic slobbering teddy bear who loves being around other dogs and people. Loves kids as well. If your a family searching for a pet and understand that they do require attention then look no further then a DDB
Makes me miss our Bordeaux pitbull boxer mix we had. His dad was a Bordeaux pit, and mom was a boxer pit. But he took his dad's traits on, and yes, the drool is real lol. Dum dum drooled uncontrollably and i miss that. Bordeaux's are such an amazing pup. Can't wait to get a full blooded Bordeaux
I have one spiced up with 1/4 of Great Dane, I can tell ha´s a pretty special boy three years young now
Hello Anneka,love your video,always nice to see your amazing video.Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful weekend 😀🙌🏻🐾🐾🐾❤️Very lovely breed
Thank you! You too! ❤️
@@Animal-Watch Your welcome,thank you so much😊❤️
I always loved this breed and wanted to get one for the longest time, just a shame about their life span.
Oh! These are beauties! I LOVE them.
Dont, whatever you do, go and look at a puppy. Wonderful orange coat, no drool as yet and bright blue eyes. You will NOT walk away!
Love love love my ddb..female about 1 year old 100 pounds of the smartest and most loving dog we have ever had..
Saw one in battersea dogs home, once. Couldn't believe the size of its head. Massive, easily bigger than me
Love this video 👍🏻❤️ awesome
Absolutely the best dog breed I ever had and showed love I think backyard breeders maybe spoiled the breed and how much they wanted for a puppy that's my taught and one day I mite be lucky again to have a puppy
My neighbour across the road from mr had 1 but she got rid because she couldn’t handle him. When I introduced myself to him he was so soft and then a few days had gone by and I spoke to her again and I says I’ve not heard Zeus and that’s when she told me . I said I’d have had him but my partner has a cane corso so don’t think it would go down well. The lady in this video sounds like she comes from Stoke on Trent my home town .
beautiful dog. Love them since Turner and Hooch,,,,, wish they had better health
Me too x
Cool, always wondered about this breed. Having a French parent, we used to vacation in France but I don’t recall seeing them, (my French relatives had giant schnauzers and labs). Would probably be great as part of a mix, but as they are, short lifespan would be a deal breaker for me.
It's a beautiful breed of guard dog, however it's not easy to grow in small places and needs open space s as it's very large and heavy. Thanks so much Anneka for sharing another very interesting video!🙏😍🫶🫶
Great advice x
& there was one on a very obscure TV series from the very early 90's Tequila & bonetti animal watch. 😉
Loves this breed. Didn't know the history
These dogs are very affectionate, loyal, and devoted. They are also incredibly goofy and sensitive. Not very food driven. They love to sleep the day away. Yes it is true that they are very slow at doing tasks and take their sweet time!
love the breed, most loving Dogs to owners. I have 3 love them all.
Great video on this awesome breed! I'm desperate to own one
Great video ❤❤❤❤❤
The DDB are the most loving and loyal breed. I’ve had 5 DDB and wouldn’t own any other breed after owning them. They are just beautiful and stunning ❤
I bought my boy freddie from her he's amazing she's a great breeder
I hope for a bright future for that breed to because they deserve a longer healthier life ❤
I am 78 years old and now have my fifth They're great dogs Haven't had any that are bad yet. They're lovable and great pets. This 1's a female, always a 119 pounds. She's actually the smallest one of Of them that I have had
Eles são lindos adorável fofos cachorrinhos ❤😊
🙌🫶
We use breed DBD . So beautiful all of our where dark red with just a white blaze on chest . You can purchase slobber cloths definitely a must . Our all lives over 10 . They really are great with kids and love getting dressed up ours always went to sons football matches with their own jersey 's . Such beautiful cuddly dogs but they do try and get on your knee for cuddles.
Had one when i was young, they are very easy going , a bit wary at strangers ( but once ok , they are friendly and stable. They will guard property, even when they may look kind of aloof . Problem is their massive structure so what this lady tells is 100 correct , jumping , even un - controlled running can be bad for them especially in their grown state. I never found them stubborn , actually i found mine very obedient , just slow , they do everything slow . Just do not underestimate them when angry , they will not easily back down when challenged and this breed , maybee more then any other breeds, read people like a book . If your one is not liking you or even accepting you , then maybee its time to take that as a note to yourself to improve your state of being. They can and will give you the most human look ( their eyes ) that aint be seen in other breeds .
These dogs really have some kind of 6th sense .
I experienced it , and other owners confirmed this.
The deep red ones with their yellow / green / hazel eyes can stare right into your soul. Mine was a female , very powerfull , compact and pretty low to the ground , once in the summer time my frontdoor was open by accident , nightime .. because next morning i woke up , door open , and she was laying their just on the floor guarding i know for sure it was not the average beauty sleep .
They connect extremely deep with their owners .
A truly amazing breed .
Please don’t let Rishi find out about them 😂
I'm on my second, my first died in April and it broke my heart, he was truly man's best friend but I'm so smitten with DDB's I got another one
You are wonderful, my regards ❤❤❤❤❤
Thankyou 🙌❤️
♥️
Awesome dog mam❤
Thankyou
Wow😊 Beautiful breed. Can u do episode with boxer dog?
The most loving breed you could be lucky enough to have in your family❤... life expectancy is the only drawdown as it will break your heart when they leave you😢
Helloooooo lol the acent 😂❤
😁
I love that dog since also turner hooch lol i did not understand where was that place because of the accent but woow so beautifull
You should do the Norwegian Elkhound!
Lindos....
🙏
They are really a giant bulldog,they may call them mastiff ,but more on the bulldog side
🥰
You dont realize how big they are till you get your hands on one
Can you please do the tosa inu
The Tosa is one my favorite breeds. Too bad not too many good Tosas out there.
Bonjour
J ai 61 ans,je connais le dogue de Bordeaux depuis mes 16 ans,mes parents avaient un couple,des ma majorité j en ai eu un il s appelait Alto il a vécu 10 ans,puis j ai eu Enzo ,11 ans,ensuite pendant plusieurs années je ne pouvais plus avoir de chien cause travail et autres.
Maintenant que j ai une maison et beaucoup de terrain je suis très Heureux , avec Solo,il est magnifique, gros gabarit ,Il a 2 ans 5 mois et plus de 87 kg,ce qui réduit la longévité c est la nourriture, surtout pas de croquettes c est pas bon du tout,je lui donne le matin 500 grammes de viandes rouge cuite avec 100 grammes de carottes ou de haricots verts,3 cuillères a soupe d huile de saumon et la même chose le soir,des sardines également,3 boîtes par semaine.
Beautiful dog, but breeders really should focus on life expectancy
Bonjour
Il y a de bon éleveurs mais malheureusement de mauvais aussi,le dogue de Bordeaux est un chien avec d origine un gabarit important,mais voilà, mauvaise alimentation (croquettes),ce qui avec le temps et les années qui passent réduise le gabarit et la longévité de cette race exceptionnelle
I’m sorry but “ don’t walk your dog till 6 months” is not good, I’ve have 60kgs + mastiffs and they all got walked plenty since 3 months, not mad long hikes but good decent walks with plenty of play, all have been fine..
I wish people knew my Tumbler. My Bubba Dub.
My Tumbler lived for 9 years.
Great video but I’ll pass on the dogs!🐕😳😜😅
😁
Can you do Tosa Inu, Fila Brasileiro, American Bulldog and Alapaha blue blood bulldog next?
I have a real Alapaha (non brachycephalic)There are a lot of fake Alapahas out there.
Would not have a dog that lives to five or six years old. I love the looks, but the pain of losing a much loved companion would be to much to bare.
Very heartbreaking
That's the Cane Corso the Italian Mastiff.
Yes they drool a bit and they can be stubborn but apart from that they are the best dogs you can get. When it comes to personality they are in a league of their own. You have dogs and then you have Dogue de Bordeaux.😁😁😁
Bonjour
Tout a fait,c est un chien a part,moi je ne vois que par le dogue de Bordeaux,il sont différents,Solo mon amour de toutou c est plus que mon chien c est mon meilleur ami,il a 2 ans et 5 mois,c est vrai le dogue de Bordeaux c est un chien exceptionnel et différent des autres races
Cordialement
@@raphmontes Yes, I see much of the same personality in Great Danes as I see in Dogue de Bordeaux. People seem to forget that dogs also are individuals and have characters that are unique to them. My girl sometimes acts silly and often gives me a good laugh. She may not be as goofy as a Great Dane but still very funny.😁😁😁😁
make a video of Rhodesian Ridgeback vs lion ❤
Can you do Alapaha blue blood bulldogs ????
Do you have a video describing prey drive?
Perfect outdoor doggo. Wouldn't let it to drool all over the place😅
Her name was Magda 💖💖💖
Mastiffs are completely different than molossars
Scotland Watching 🥃📡🥃
Hello Scotland
Heartbreak breed 💔 as with bulldogs 😓
Could u do another vid with Phoenix / the fire wolf dog?
Only if she comes to uk again as she lives in Texas x
@@Animal-Watch Alr , rlly hope she does ❤️
Their history sounds similar to rottweilers. But they are so cute lol. They dont look intimidating they look like big stuffed animals.
