This Mastiff has brought people from all over the world together and has contributed to the Mastiff breed in many ways. Diesel was featured in the Spring/Summer issue of The Mastiff Legacy Old English Mastiff Club (OEMC), United Kingdom May 2013

Diesel was the first piebald mastiff to be DNA tested for breed purity, leading the way for us with our own A Cappella and many others.

Diesel's full DNA profile is published with MyDogDNA at Genoscoper Labs in Helsinki, Finland.

Diesel was the first pied Mastiff to be registered with his accurate coat color in the United States of America with the American Kennel Club as a piebald mastiff on his registration certificate. Even though the parent breed club demanded that it be changed later to the color brindle, Diesel once again led the pack in the Mastiff breed.

We are privileged to have known this magnificent boy and ever grateful to the Linville family for letting him be a part of our family too. Diesel Kane Linville will forever be the Patriarch of our preservation breeding program. His legacy will live on for generations through his sons and daughters, and the love of everyone who ever met him.
