SOUR GRAPES
We felt the need to dedicate a page in regard to a recent verbal
attack on our dogs and kennel name.  I am the owner of a mastiff
message board and occasionally we have people that join and must
be removed due to their negative behavior.

This has occurred recently, and the disgruntled person has taken it
upon himself to voice negative and untrue comments on his website
about Goldleaf Mastiffs and Harmony Mastiffs.  To date, he is not a
breeder and has very little knowledge about the mastiff breed.  He
has caused problems for other breeders and was recently removed
from another mastiff message board for the same behavior.  To the
best of our knowledge, he still frequents one mastiff message board
and goes by the name of "NewJerseyMastiffs".  In our opinion, you
should be very careful if you see this name and avoid any association.

He rarely shows his dogs and had little or no success when he did.  
Since he had little success at showing and has never bred mastiffs,
he claims he will be a "watchdog" for the mastiff community.  Do we
really want someone like this watching over anyone?  Read the two
articles below and you can decide for yourself.  So far, this person
has been very successful at having a loud mouth, being disliked, and
proving to be a burden to many of the great mastiff folks across the
country.  He voices his opinions on a blog that does not allow
comments from other users, unless of course he approves them first.  
Very one sided in our opinion.

Initially, we chose to completely ignore this person and his rantings,
but after giving it some thought, we felt it was important to post this
information and let you know that if you have any questions about
our dogs, please feel free to call or email us directly.  We are very
open and honest people and would be happy to answer any questions
you might have about our dogs and our breeding program.  If at any
time you are contacted by this person, we would appreciate it if you
would forward the correspondence to us.

We are very proud of the dogs we have bred and our success in the
show ring.  It is unfortunate that someone will come along and try to
damage an established breeders reputation, which in my opinion is
based on anger and jealousy, but these things do happen in life and
we felt it was important to inform the public.

Thank you,
