My dogs are rigorously health tested through various in the feild assesments, alongside modern technological programs & procedures.

  Breeding Philosophy

  I am Old school, I belive culling is a tool used to preserve, maintain and protect a healthy breeding program. I know there are enough unwanted, disabled, neglected dogs out in the world. I am active in rescue fostering and aiding in placing of bulldog breeds in particular. If you are not into showing or breeding please consider a dog that is sitting in a very unfun place right now at your local animal shelter or choose pet stock when buying from a breeder.

Finding a Breeder and a Bully

 If you are a first timer into the (Bullies),
I recomend doing your research on bulldog breeds, researching breeders and registries to find what best suits your tastes, requirements & expectations of what you want out of the dog and out of a breeder. There are many links on the net that will give good evaluation to what to look for in a good breeder. Some are extreme while others are more in the realm of reality for rational expectations of breeders. Breeders also have the responsibility to thoroughly screen to find the best possible homes for their dogs.
 Note there are different purposes, lifestyles and uses for bulldogs used by breeders, ranging anywhere from the show ring,  protection work, wild boar hunting, weight pulling and more. It is important to know your own personal level of what you can handle for character and activity as bulldogs can range from high spirited dare devils to layed back lugers.
