The history of the Oasis... Back in the middle 90’s, I met
my first Mastiff, Tessa. She was not from a known breeder and has
no pedigree, but she was incredibly sweet and loving. That’s where my
appreciation and love for the breed began. Tessa belonged to my
dearest friends in the world, Jay & Rhonda New. It would be
several years before I was able to begin my life with Mastiffs, yet I knew
they were the breed for me!

After buying my first Mastiff puppy, I became
involved in showing. The “show” bug bit HARD and a few years later, I’ve
become completely immersed in my big babies. I sold my home in the
city to move into the country where I could have plenty of room of my
Mastiffs. I chose a home that was arranged perfectly for a multi-dog
household. Out went my cute little red sports car and in came a full
sized SUV which I learned rather quickly is STILL not big enough. The
next venture is a motor home so that I can travel easier with my
Mastiffs. Gone are the days when vacations were planned for exotic
and interesting places; now vacations are planned around dog shows and the
national specialty. Gone are the days when a bag of dog food lasted
for a couple of weeks. Now, I have Canidae delivered by 18 wheeler by
the pallet load! What a change! Life at the Oasis revolves around
caring for, training and loving each of my furkids.

After my first two Mastiffs, I began to get an
idea of what I truly wanted in a Mastiff including great temperaments, good
sound structure and thorough health testing of the parents. I connected
with several wonderful breeders and have embarked on my journey into the
show world with some beautiful dogs with wonderful pedigrees. My
philosophy is that anything worth doing is worth doing right!! I just
had to learn what right was and with the help of my last few breeders, I’ve
learned a great deal!

Please enjoy the pictures & stories on my
website and feel free to write or call me with any questions you may have
about Boston Terriers or Mastiffs. Just be forewarned; these
are my FAVORITE topics & I can definitely talk about either subject for
hours! I’m truly worse than a new grandmother over my FUR BABIES!!
