Ridgeport Mastiffs

“I would like to thank you for giving me such a wonderful Mastiff puppy. Mastiff (King) is the best behaved puppy. Within 2 weeks of receiving him he was house trained. My 7yr old son and the neighborhood kids love playing with him. Once again thank you for everything for what you and your family does for this breed of dog and thank you for giving my family such a unique dog.”

“Hi, my name is Bridget Barron and I live in Sioux Lookout, Ontario. I'm originally from East St. Paul, Winnipeg, Manitoba. I just like to write a letter in appreciation to Rick Beeman from Emerson, Manitoba. Mr. Beeman has been a wonderful advisor as a breeder in guiding knowledge of raising English Mastiffs.

We purchased a Black Brindle Fawn male puppy, who we call Jigger. Jigger was 29 lbs. when we got him. He came home with us on Sunday, June 15th 2008 and he is a very beautiful boy, a little attitude, very playful, curious, very loyal, happy, sociable with people and kids and most of all a good temperment. I'm very happy that I found Rick Beeman. He has be very helpful in every way. For example: how and what to feed Jigger, amount and brand of food, when his next shots are, etc.

Rick to me is more than a breeder. We look to him as a friend because he would call and check to see how the progress is going on Jigger, or if their are any problems he can help us with, and we're pretty impressed at the time and caring of Jigger well being of his new owners, eg: sending Emails and pictures.

Jigger was born Tuesday March 18th, 2008. Jigger is 5 months old, stands 22" at the the shoulder and weighs 68 lbs (Tuesday Aug. 26, 2008). We hope to keep our friendship with Rick in the future, and we're glad to have met Rick, Molly, Marley, Milo and Magnus. It's been an experience for me and Jigger and I recommend him to be a very good breeder.”

Hi my name is Sam Bell and I live in Wasaga Beach, Ontario, on the shores of Gerogian Bay. My family and I purchased a BEAUTIFUL apricot brindle female from Rick back in June 2008. My family has been so thrilled with her and amazed at how much she has added to our family. We named our new addition Bravun. Rick has been a 1000 times more of a breeder than I could have ever imagined. He has been extremely open and honest when ever I needed any information and help. He also shows how much he cares when he calls periodically to check in and to see how things are going. I did my reseach on the breed prior to getting one of these majestic animals and Rick's are top notch! To any that ask about mastiffs and where to get one I would highly recommend that they go to Rick Beeman.

Best wishes and GOD Bless, Sam Bell and family.

We are so happy to have Matt & Murphy with us. They have brought us so much joy in our family. Rick has been such a huge help getting us used to the Mastiff breed. He has been wonderful and really understanding to any questions we might have. We get compliments all the time about how beatiful the boys are, and how wonderful their temperment is. We really love these guys to death. Thank You Rick!!!!

Chris, Karly, Gloria, Emily, Matt & Murphy

Hi Rick,

I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for the wonderful addition to our family. Tinkerbelle has been just an awesome pup with a wonderful personality. She is loving, affectionate and lots of fun to play with and train.

We have always had a dog but never a Mastiff and after having Tinkerbelle with us I don't think that I would ever not have one. I have found her to be loyal, great with the kids and very social with other dogs and people that we have met on our walks. In fact she seems put out if people don't stop to say hi to her or give her a pat.

Thanks to you Rick for calling and checking up on Tinkerbelle. Making sure that she is doing well and happy in her new home. It takes a different kind of person to be that involved after the pup has gone on to her new home. To me it shows your dedication to making sure that your puppies go to the right home not just any home. The follow up that you do with them is awesome and appreciated. I know that I could call you anytime to ask a question or just to fill you in on her latest progress. I will continue to send you pictures so that you can see for yourself how well she is doing and how much she is loved.

Thanks again for our beautiful girl.
