A MINNESOTAN man lives with three giant English Mastiffs who weigh a combined 630lbs. Joe Thompson lives with his three English Mastiffs and his family in Duluth, Minnesota. The largest of the three dogs - two-year-old Harrison - weighs a whopping 250lbs, while his housemates Ringo and Paul weigh 218lbs and 170lbs respectively. Joe got the first of the three dogs six years ago after his dad was diagnosed with cancer and then began breeding the huge dogs. English Mastiffs are renowned for being the world’s heaviest dogs and Joe’s pets are in huge demand for breeding - charging up to $3000 a time.

Who seen the trump thing in the back
So what
MAGA
That’s right I love trump! And I am not even American, trump 2020!
@@bzviad100 how old are u sir?
I did. Sad, stopped watching immediately.
I had a English mastiff for 11 years, she just passed in February 2019. These dogs are honestly amazing and after having her I can’t imagine having another dog breed. Gentle giants, she was a big girl 180 pounds and full of love. I miss my Daisy everyday and this video just brought back a lot of memories ❤️❤️
🙏🏽💜
Aww dear. Remember you’re never without a mastiff, you’re just waiting for the next to arrive.
Wow, she lived to be 11?? We just adopted a 4½ year old English Mastiff, and I told my kids that he would probably not live past 7 or so. What did you do for her to have such a blessed healthy life for 11 years??
I got claustrophobia just from seeing them all jammed in that truck..
Relax cupcake. Im sure they survived and had a nice walk directly after. Not every amimal is as a weak minded human like you.
@@jaketoffen2454 dude you probably abuse ur dogs the same way you creep
My friends have these beautiful dogs ...I think this guy has the best of intentions but the diet is indeed questionable ..my friends who are very experienced with this breed feed a raw food diet with added safe veggies and even the older ones are in superb condition ...I think he should check with his vet.
Cherie Smith was the raw food chicken wings? Cause that is fine for these type of dogs to eat.
I’m sure he doesn’t see a vet
mastiff are truly the best ❤️😔
Cherie Smith dies he use Wegman’s kibble? is that a good brand?
He lost me at bacon grease lol
My last Mastiff was just over 260. He was a little taller. He was a lamb and wouldn't hurt a fly. He got attacked in the dog park by a bully and I had to step in and It took off my finger. He lived to be 14. They do not like stress and don not like been yelled at so don't do it. My Mastiff now is smaller and I bought him for what was promised to be size but he is only about 200. Same temperament though. Best breed in my books. People would call the police when they saw my last one. Harley just shook people and they thought he had to be vicious. No chance. I had cancer and Harley kept me warm every night when I got the shakes from Chemo. All my friends abandon me and thought I would die but Harley was right there for me every day. Thanks for sharing. I would like to know if you have a lead on some of your dogs puppies. I am looking at getting a couple more.
You can look me up on Facebook...

I know exactly what you're taking about. I feel that way about the relationship with my dog‼ Glad to hear you feeling better. 👍
That's some beautiful dogs jax a fullbloded bullmastif to hes red hes a beautiful dog to they are some amazing dogs
That's exactly why English Mastiff is my dream dog. I've done plenty of research and their such gentle giants.
@@nicolem8122 Hi: If you are going to buy a Mastiff then make sure it comes from a good pedigree. Harley my second was a big boy and a bigger baby. I honestly thought that a squirrel would mug him. I lucked out and bought him from a bag yard breeder that had both parents and he turned out to be wonderful. My third I got out of Manitoba because I could not find a breeder in British Columbia that had puppies.I still have him and he was bout as a purebred but no papers as I do not plan to show him, I do not think he could stand the stress of the shows. I lost a great Dane that way who one best in show at expo 86 dog show. Rare but he died shortly after and I will never do that again.
Keep feeding them like that and guarantee heart, an hip problems
That's what happen to my uncles english mastiff, he fed her table food every day, he spoon fed her every day of her life
@@christiantaylor5121 and this guy is feeding them mass amounts. Look at the older one already has grey in the face already
CHAZE BUTLER I agree 100% feed them grease and whatever other table scraps is just taken away from their expansion of life!
Exactly lol smh
This dude put the cooking oil in there food that’s just ridiculous and sad people need to know we shouldn’t feed our dogs table food give them raw meat with the dog food and make sure they get out and workout not once did I see those dogs training like the hulk the American bully this is crazy man
It is absolutely worthy to dedicate my live to my mastiff. As you said he put his live out there to protect you and just walking next to him is the best feeling I have felt since I was born. I am on tears after your comments before the end of the video since I feel the same so deep in my heart that I can’t live my life anymore if he is not next to me. Finally an honest and figured youtube video of what living with this guys truly represents. Thank you
Gentle giants yes, just worried they will not live a long healthy life 😔
because this guy is imbecile
@Elijah Soper oh no they can but people aren't willing to do the necessary things to help
not true.....in my town they have gone over 10yrs
I had a mastiff that lived 13 yrs. He was 240 pounds in his prime. He developed cancer at 12 yrs. He was extremely healthy and fit and solid until the end. I do miss him terribly.
@@56brogerson if a dog weighs 240lbs its fat if a dog has no athletic ability its fat and useless
Gentle Giants...Love big, drooly, monstrous dogs....they’ve got the biggest hearts...He takes really good care of his dogs...these are breeders i’d want to buy a dog from....He treats them like family and socializes them well...
Ziggybam Murphy thank you. You may look me up on Facebook...

Joe Thompson Your dogs are obese. You’re every veterinarians worst nightmare.
Nancy Mesek ikr
Joe Thompson they may be a little on the plump side but they are amazing!! You are what every breeder should be. I am usually die hard against breeding, but if it is done like this, like family, its ok. I currently have a half French, quarter English quarter St. Bernard. They are wonderful dogs!
That's good that you treat them like the family I understand that but bacon grease only food that's a No-No
It was over dog food
I recently read that bacon is a fatty food that has a lot of salt which can be too much for a dog's stomach...and can cause them pancreatitis
It soaked into the food and gives them fats and proteins but the salts are so good for them that why he gave them a little
Ive been giving mine the juices frombaked chicken with his dog food in the morning. At night I add in the actual chicken with his dog food. He of course gets various snacks thru the day mostly blueberries and carrots. Loves carrots. Just trying to keep him fed but healthy. He does get stuff that gets "dropped" by the grandkids alot. Amazingly its always stuff they don't like. Anyway he is almost 7 months old and about 140 lbs now. He is my first mastiff and he is wonderful.
And I can't ever see giving him any kind of grease. It cant be good for their arteries or stomachs. Ever had a giant dog lose control of his bowels in your living room? Me either and I don't ever plan on helping along the situation anytime soon.
250lbs of pure Mastiff Muscle? Mate that doge is more jiggly then a shar pi in a bouncy castle. Please this guy thinks he can can breed dogs just cause he makes the dogs chunk 🤦🏻♀️ smh
The dog is healthy and fit and mastifs should weigh 250 pounds
Sounds like Trump talking about his economy
@@stewiegriffinfan18?
fbi open up “alright just please don’t coax others into consuming straight bacon grease. Please do that on your own time”

Feeding myself is expensive, i can imagine having to feed 3 of me
Gday luv
Had a Champion Bull Mastiff Rottie he was 165 smallest of the litter.lived to be 17.5
Best 7 grand I ever spent

RACIST DOGS NOW, DAMN VOTE 2020
Yeah liberal zombie bias dislikes
That’s not even why to be exact
@@curtisjamesmay ikr, he feeds them 'healthy' food
@@MightyThor72 Yeah fr. Guys always remember bacon grease is essential for your dogs good health. Lol
I love English Mastiffs! We have them. Paul looks just like my Roman. We have reverse brindle too. Those boys are gorgeous! So sweet. You take care of them like they are your children, I love it.
They were originally bred to fight bears. Never seen that ever until now. Mastiffs are the best dogs ever!!!
Traci Olson my niece just got one yesterday and his name is Roman, also.
Can i play with your niece
“Harrison please sit” ❤️my heart
I agree adding real food to the dog food! My grand father 100 years ago was given a German Shepherd by an old German man who lived in the city and worked with him at a steel plant . My mum told how fanny was about 1year old when grand father got her. She worked on the farm rounding up cows until 1943. She was born in Germany 1918 died in Canada 1943. She was 25 years old. Mum described her as a shepherd but smaller than the ones today.
Giving the dogs bacon grease!! They look overweight to me far from healthy...
Exactly
I know right. It's like saying 300 pound person is huge "it's amazing", no sir, he/she is OVERWEIGHT
@@cangie4040 the biggest dog can't even walk properly the fat roles are swallowing his face. He says he gets requests to stud his dogs out who in the right mind would want to breed with them.
I blame Trump
They are not if he know anything about Mastiffs you would know that many weigh about 250 because of there breed and they were perfect healthy
Love how they stay inside as family pets !!
Imagine having that weight step on your barefoot pinkie toe 😂😂 rip dem toes😂😂
It HURTS. Trust me
That would be one forth of the dogs total weight. Not very much...but those claws wouldn't feel very nice.
It would be them toes and that is grammatically incorrect. It would actually be those toes.
I want a mastiff dog to sit on me
I don't have to imagine. My mastiff has no concept of personal space, and steps on my feet on the daily. He only weighs 199 lbs, though, and I would never feed him bacon grease, so there's that...
Three gentle giants! This is what we want to see from a great dogs owner! Bless this family :)
Gentle giants i love them
@Rapid Studios bullmastiffs are the most chill dogs
@Rapid Studios I have one, he's the most chill dog I've ever had compared to my pits
This man is killin these poor dogs oh my 😢😢smh Bacon grease Jesus take the whole car🤣🤣🤷🏽♀️
They're big dogs they need bigger portions
@@lemonman8654 bigger portions and bacon grease are 2 different things he's killing them
Humans eat worse
@@sussylifter5019 Our digestive system is totally different you idiot
Lol my English massive seems pretty fine to me and I feed them worse
I have a great dane/mastiff mix thats pushing 200 pounds and Harrison makes mine look like a pup lol
Amazing dogs but 250 pounds is NOT fit or healthy
I think the dude tries to keep them healthy though he exercises them a lot and clearly loves them he just doesn’t know how I think.
I just posted ranting on how they are not "working dogs" and if he didnt exercise them.. They would be obese
They don't look fit at all also...
👍👌
I wondered the same thing, usually big massive dogs have some medical issues
I think you need a bigger truck for him
I'm going to suggest an ex military truck
richard stapp I was gunna say.. I can’t be the only one feeling claustrophobia in that truck.. those poor pooches

Interviewer:introduce yourself
Joe : My name is Joe Thompson and I am the owner of three English mastiff.......
🎉🎉
I have just seen than Joe past the way. As an absolute stranger I need to say that every man that dedicate his life to their dogs like Joe did, well, if you are giving everything for your mastiff it is something that you just feel, there are no words, I don’t and I didn’t have to meet Joe, his voice shaking holding tears at the end of this video tells me, a complete stranger, what a great man he was. English mastiffs carry 500 years of love and death for their human owners, I am 36, I need to give him back all he gives to me. Rest In Peace Joe, from an absolute stranger!
Really?! How sad.
The sad thing about big dogs is that they have short lives.
Who else thought that there was only two dogs in the thumbnail 😂😂😂
We never fed our mastiff that much so she would live longer. I gave her table scraps and shared my food with her, then we gave her 2 bowls of good dogfood a day. She lived to 13 and was all there until the day she died :). Best dog ever.
Such stunningly beautiful dogs. I have a bullmastiff that's 140 pounds but that's nothing compared to these majestic beasts.
I love how this dogs focused on their family 😍❤️
Those dogs could eat that me if they wanted. I love them
Fantastic dog its lovely to see. I have had mastiffs since I was 10 years old I'm now 30 and they truly are your best friend. Mine have helped through grief, made me get out of bed and even alerted me when I was in labour. My six year old walks mine French mastiff.
250 healthy working pounds lol??? U really think soo... from which angle?? He is a really big boy but it looks like he struggling to even walk... I have a cane corso and surely that is not healthy for a dog to weigh that much or is it I could be wrong.. the lightest one looks real good
THE TRUTH lol bro in shred they are maybe 200 tops
barely walk he was running and swimming
I mean male Mastiffs are usually in the 160-230 lbs my male is 180 and that's because he's fed right and his dad is a huge doggo.
your trying to compare the largest mastiff to the smallest mastiff, by the numbers the english should be twice the weight of the corso
bigblockin427 lol I just realized that's my other late Mastiffs weight... I estimate he's around 200 pounds? Maybe more it's been a while since he went to the vet..
2 of these 3 "monster mastiffs" look over weight to me💀🤦♀️
Yeah.
Definitely
Cause they are
And the other seems to have some Kit displays of problems
Nah it's just muscles and rolls.
I had a Bullmastiff, but we had to put him down just over a day ago.
I wouldn’t rob that house if I were u
Nah mastiffs are too lazy to do anything lol i have an elglish mastiff.
@@theooogirl3495 ooo that is hot.
only thing u have do is throw piece of bacon down SERIOUSLY
They will do nothing, just come in my house, i have 1 boerboel with over 800psi bite force and a cane corso with over 750psi bite force... You will be dead in like 30 seconds
Milly Vanilla I would there just couch potato dogs
Happy for him that he found something to make him happy🤗
You do need to put fish in their diets for the joints especially their hips. Tinned mackerel is perfect
Does he not know that bacon grease is actually TERRIBLE for dogs....???
I feel like the whole of this video is actually true
Wow there super beautiful I have 2 bullmastiff and I do understand the love they give. God bless them
Complimenti bellissima famiglia!!!!!!!!
I love these cuties! I got my own big boy, his name is Olof
Beautiful! I agree 100% about the advantages of being in nature!

My family have just acquired a beautiful English mastiff girl and she has become such cherished family member, cute, cuddly and very affectionate. We are so blessed and look forward to the journey ahead with her
From a breeder?
Agree, something special about silent places!
One day I will have one. They're such gentle giants and big babies.

Hi I am a volunteer since 1986 with Great Lakes Mastiff Rescue.org. We are a 6 state rescue. People say “ ooooooo I want a big dog like that”. The first bout of diarrhea all over the house, or their slingers on the ceiling, out the dog goes. These guys cannot live by themselves. They will starve and die. They need to be with a family 24/7, thats their purpose in life. We rescue hundreds of Mastiffs.
So, do you show your boys? Good luck with them
I love such amazing bonds between animals and humans treat them as family member they will never hurt you
The dumbest diet ever....where would a dog find bacon grease in the wild?
Where would a dog find factory made dog food in the wild?
It's not necessary "grease bacon" is pork fat, the skin contains all that grease.
So in nature a wild dog hunt a prey and eat all, also the skin=fat.
Do you not know that bacon comes from pigs. A wild dog would eat a pig but ya it is a lot of extra calories to be giving to an already over weight dog.
You need a Ram Mega Cab, bro!
He wants a truck that can get home from the stealership without breaking down.
They have significantly greater bite force than a Tiger Shark.
So touched by the love and bonding you share. I miss my dog.
Absolutely love this ! Amazing dogs
Much love here❤️❤️❤️. It’s true that the love they give us is unconditional. Thanks for sharing.
Happy New Year Joe!
They are simply amazing!! Mastiffs are incredible
GREAT dogs!
My family had a Bull Mastiff, 150lbs, brilliantly trained, in English and Hausa, just for fun. She taught me to walk and was my nanny, 70 years ago! My dad was so devastated when he last her, he never had another dog, he said he couldn’t take the heartache. These are truly magnificent creatures. 💚🐾
Looks like he's having trouble Squeezing all 3 into the car at 3:50. " Get into the car,.... Get in there " Lol.
Love how the family loves them....they are wonderful dogs and the care he takes to make sure their individual needs for optimum health are met is really sweet to see. Good job, Sir!
Great beautiful dogs!!
But dogs THAT big... how long will they live?
Plus joint and hip problems?
It gets hard as they age.
They definitely don't live long. Around 7 years is average for a big dog like that. Youre very right about the hip and joint issues- and they often have heart issues as well because of how large they are. Beautiful dogs but very poor health with the breed usually no matter how well you care for them.
They say 10 to 12 years, yet some live as long as 15 or 16.
@@magickmiiror2853 I haven't had one, but having been around breeding, a lot of dog breeds sure are inbred and over-bred for certain traits, which then have other traits overlooked, unfortunately. :/ They sure seem sweet though. :)
@@snakeeyes9246 SOME people live to be 90 or 100. 10 years is VERY much the outside for mastiff type breeds.
They are one hell of a big dog

I had a 230 lb english mastiff named Barkley and he was the sweetest.
I literally spend months looking for DDK9's and ...I found this...Wow. those dogs are big and adorable especially Paul
Even in England we dont have English mastiff that big keep up the work mate
dave smith that’s because you don’t want them that big, what good is a 250lb guard god that can only just get on the sofa
dave smith he’s feeding them to death
@Rapid Studios good one!!😂😂😂👍
Beautiful drooly beasts!!
My girl is almost 10 years old. Annie is the best dog I’ve ever had. She is gentle, very smart, and protective of me. I love her beyond anything.
Love it! I love big dogs :)
My favorite part was the big dogs.
All I can say is WOW!!!! 😲 😲
These dogs eat better than I do!
Wow, I'm breathless
Love these dogs!
Hell no that aint 250 lbs of working dog.
Breathtaking...yeah they take their own breath by walking lol

When your pug reaches Lv 88 it becomes a Giant Mastiff
thats not how dog mafia works
Love it!
Man you got good big security around your family, no body will mess with your big boys
People saying They look pretty hefty but they’re worked and played every day and they look healthy and super happy too
If your dog is overweigth it doesnt mean that it is a large dog🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️
Any thumbs down are pure jealousy. Love from Australia 🇦🇺
Omg my heart just melted .. so cute
I had a Newfoundland that was 276lbs. We had to weigh him on a horse scale...he was really healthy other than the cancer that took him...but Zeus was just a big boil we didn't do anything special for the diet.

Not at all I can steal and jumble the fence the dog can't even walk
Miss our mastiff, we live in Eveleth Mn.
I see ALOT of negative comments on this and all I can say is that THESE dogs look HAPPY AND LOVED and bring GREAT JOY to their owners and when they do pass away, they will have died being LOVED and meet their end with these same people there with them. How many dogs do you see in THIS world that get this much attention and love? You basically call this a quintessential bad guy and where I live I see dogs chained up and and neglected or running rabid and hurting people. What is wrong with this guy spoiling his dogs like that? He LOVES them you fools!
You my brother are truly blessed~
