Veteran Dog (4, 1 abs)

  1: Myers & Morgan’s- Ch Old Manila’s Whisky Mac For Optimus JW- After gracing the Show ring for many years and achieving the title of the most awarded Bullmastiff in the history of the Breed it was an honour for me to go over him, a remarkable dog in top condition. Even as he gets older he still has ring presence, moves with drive and overall his conformation is excellent, he has a good deep chest with good width. Superb square skull, good mouth with broad Jaw and nice pigment with correct ear set. He definitely has more winning to do.
