We are the Whobrey family of Southern Indiana. we welcome you to come on in and enjoy our Hoosier Hospitality! My husband Ed and I have two sons who now have families of their own. Raising them was our most important job, It was hard at times, it was fun most times. It was the best job ever! We now have three grandchildren to spoil and enjoy. We live in the country, landscaped with beautiful red pines we planted as seedlings. My husband and I share a deep love of animals. They have always been an important part of our lives. As a child growing up we always adopted rescued dogs and still do. They made great family members and left us with many wonderful memories. Our dogs are pets and companions first. They are happiest when they are with us, whether it be inside our home napping or outside playing on our seven acres.

I saw my first mastiff twelve years ago. I was in awe of their massive size and gentle beauty. I knew someday I would own one of these beautiful creatures. Little did I realize they would own me. Three and a half years ago, we brought home our first Mastiff. This was quite a change for us; at the time our four-legged family consisted of two quarter horses, two yorkies and a black lab. Mya grew quickly and we soon realized our girl needed a playmate and companion. It took us two years to find our next mastiff, Ryder. ~ They are best buds~

I have always wanted to show dogs, but my work schedule didn't afford the time. My schedule has since changed and I was encouraged to jump in the ring, and that is what I did. This past year has been an incredible journey. I have met many nice people and have made several good friends. Ryder has finished and earned his AKC championship, his national and International puppy and adult championships, received first in his class at the national specialty in Denver in 2006  and earned his CGC and TDI certifications.. I am so proud of this boy!

We have learned the importance of health screening, (OFA-HIPS &  ELBOWS, PATELLA ,CARDIAC, THYROID,CERF, VWD, CYSTINURIA & PRA DNA). He is also DNA profiled.Health testing is not a guarantee but is important to do what we can to protect and ensure the health, soundness, longevity and good temperament of this noble breed.

We hope you enjoyed our Hoosier hospitality be sure to come back for new updates.

Thanks for visiting,

Ed & Nancy Whobrey & The Rest of theGang
