Bella Bullies

Dorene G.

Breeder of French Bulldogs

Meet the breeder

I'm Dorene G., the breeder behind Bella Bullies located in New York. We are a small in-home breeder of French bulldogs. Our dogs are our family. We are dedicated to providing healthy pups to new owners. The goal we set and which we believe is still the most important, is to produce healthy puppies that make a well-rounded character in an adult dog.

Q. & A. with Dorene

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I have a good friend who breeds Frenchies. I visited often when she had her litters and fell in love with the breed and decided that I also wanted to provide people with healthy, happy pups.
  • What makes your program special?

    My dogs are my family, and like my family, I want them to be as healthy and as happy as possible. This includes testing for hereditary disease, early socialization, and closely following pups who have found their forever homes. There are no kennels here. Parents and pups happily reside within our family and come pre-spoiled and loved.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
