My Husband and I got Tanner out of the Linebaugh and Lynn Breeding. Tanner is an incredible Dog. He is only 4 months old and already 45 pounds. He is a very confident and outgoing dog. He is very strong and has an extremely high prey drive. He is so observant and notices anything out of the ordinary (coyote, deer)..then immediately starts guarding us. I don't think he realizes he is just a puppy!:) Tanner is very intelligent and does not stray from our side. He does wonderful on walks from the first day we got him. To us and immediate family and friends, he is sooo affectionate and loving. When he meets people at first, he is very reserved until we accept them. He is very healthy and has a huge appetite although we only let him have the appropriate amount for his age. He does not shed or smell. We are nothing but happy with what Tanner is becoming and also how great Lee has been to do business with. Lee has immense knowledge about all animals and offers his guidance and thoughts. He really went above and beyond for us and continues to do so. My Husband and I actually had an Argentine Dogo before, which is also a mastiff and she was an incredible dog too but unfortunately came along with some health issues. Her breeder couldn't even compare to Lee. We are already planning on getting another dog from Lee to give Tanner a buddy since he loves other dogs that do not pose threats. Thank you so much Lee for everything, and ultimately-for Tanner. | |

Tanner sounds like a great puppy! 45lbs already, he's going to be pretty huge! I am getting a female from Lee soon, and as you mentioned, Lee's knowledge and guidance really helps when selecting a puppy. Enjoy your beautiful boy, and the more pics you can share the better...:) | |

Thanks for the kind words Chantelle. I hope Tanner continues to exceed your expectations and be everything you want from a K-9 companion. Glad everything has worked out. You obviously love your new friend.
He will actually be 4 months on the 25th on this month...in about 10 days. Come next month, weigh him at 4 1/2 months and then double that number. That will be about what he will weigh at 12 months (an estimate only of course).
More importantly, keep developing his abilities. Make him a flirt pole if you haven't already and work on his ob...and hopefully he will be everything you wanted.

He was the biggest male, but I think Shark Boy is a really close 2nd in size. Yes, Shark Boy is his littermate. | |
