About Us
Hello. My name is Bev Molloy, and my interest and involvement with The Mastiff began in 1978.
It was during that same year that I married my wonderful husband, Pat; my biggest supporter and helpmate. We have two terrific children, Patrick, born in 1985, and Lauren, born in 1989. Lauren is taking an interest in the dogs, and I hope that one day she will carry on the Banda Mastiffs kennel name. We live on two and a half acres northeast of Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
I worked at several Veterinary Clinics in the GTA early in my marriage. I have a Certificate of Achievement, Level I and Level II from the Toronto Association of Veterinary Assistants. I also have a Certificate of Achievement in Livestock Medicine from the Province of Ontario, Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs.
I have been a member in good standing with the Canadian Kennel Club, (CKC), Canadian Mastiff Club, (CMC), and Mastiff Club of America, (MCOA), since 1983. I was a founding member of the Canadian Mastiff Club, and have served as a member of the Executive, (from President to Director), since its inception. I have also been involved with rescue for well over twenty years.
I was a Breeder's Cup Judge, at the MCOA National Specialty in 1992, in White Plains, New York. I was also on the CKC committee putting together the qualifications for draft dog titles; and am now a Draft Dog Judge. I am also a Canine Good Neighbour Evaluator. As well, I teach rally obedience, and was given an opportunity to submit input on the development of Rally Obedience.And finally, I have bred/owned a #1 female Mastiff in Canada; Mexican Champion; American Champions; Canadian Champions; dual Champions; Group-placing dogs; Best In Specialty Show; Best of Opposite Sex in Specialty; Best Canadian Bred in Specialty; Best Veteran in Specialty; Best In Booster Shows; Best Puppy In Group; Best Puppy In Show; American Nationally Ranked Female; Best Brood Bitch In Specialty, Canine Good Citizens; and Canine Good Neighbours.
But, first and foremost, the dogs are my hobby, my companions...and loads of fun!!!!
