Our Gentle Giants

We take our name from our first two beloved mastiffs, Duncan and Kirk. Duncan came into our lives in January 1998 and we have been hooked ever since. Kirk got us addicted to showing in 2000 and we haven't stopped. We've learned alot about our breed over the years and are happy to share that knowledge. We are strong believers in breeding healthy, well-tempered dogs that meet the breed standard. We breed occasionally with our friends Eileen and Michael Durante of Celestial Mastiffs. Our family is located on Long Island in New York. Look for us at dog shows in the tri-state area.

--Pat & Joe Borracci, Dunkirk Mastiffs

Kirk:
Veteran Dogs
Ch Celestial James Tiberius.
Excellent movement, for any age, but especially for his age. Showed beautifully. Could use more breadth of chest, a shorter muzzle and more breadth of muzzle and skull. Nice rear, excellent topline.
