This is the website of TiaraRebel Bullmastiffs, owned by Darrell & Robyn Armstrong in South East Queensland. We have owned Bullmastiffs since 1995 and have come to love and adore the breed.

 

Darrell learnt about the Bullmastiff from dog books that he read throughout his childhood and wanted to own one for many years. In 1994 after seeing Bullmastiffs road tested on a lifestyle program, we contacted the Secretary of the Bullmastiff Club in Victoria where we were living at the time and attended a local show. After that, we made serious efforts to find a breeder who would entrust us with one of their puppies.

 

First we got Karla, a stunning red bitch, then along came Bronson an awesome fawn dog, you can find out more about them on this site and the rest, (as 'they' say), is history!  We never bred from them due to the lack of space and facilities where we lived at the time plus various health issues that they both suffered, probably due to our lack of knowledge and experience with the breed.

 

Years later after suffering the loss of Karla then not long after, Bronson we decided to look for another Bullmastiff.  In 2003 we obtained our foundation bitch, a brindle girl with the most amazing outgoing temperament you could ever want in a Bullmastiff. She had a lot we could improve on but we wanted her mostly for her colour and bloodlines. Our foundation dog came to us mid-2003 he was the reddest of red and thanks to Baron we have the best Bullmastiff heads we could ever wish for.

 

An important thing that someone told us was not to double up on faults, I guess reading the Bullmastiff Breed Standard and becoming familiar with that was a lesson well learnt.

 

In 2005 our first litter was born - wow what an exciting time that was!! Stressful when they were being born but so amazing and exciting watching them grow and develop; then total and complete sadness sending them off to their new forever homes! An exciting event from this litter was Asta who was our first ever export to Sweden! We will forever be grateful for the opportunity and developed a wonderful friendship. We were blessed with owners from all over the country.

 

I won't go into the details of the other litters as you can see them on the Litters Pages. With each litter born we have learnt something new and its incredible to see them grow, develop, make their owners happy and appreciative that they were born! Some people even came back for a second pup from the next litter! Its wonderful to catch up with them again, months or years later and we can always pick up on their little quirks and idiosyncrasies from their parents and grandparents.

 

Many people say Bullmastiff's are very "moreish", once you have one you need more. We have found that statement to be so true, one Bullmastiff just doesn't seem to be enough!!! That must be how we ended up with seven dogs as I write this!

 

We hope you enjoy your visit and learn about our much adored Bullmastiffs.  If you have any questions about our dogs or the breed in general, please don't hesitate to email us!
