Bullgodz English Bulldogs

We had wanted an English Bulldog for a long time. We loved everything about them—the sass, the personality, and of course those perfect side-eyes. But when we first started looking, we were honestly a little hesitant because of everything we had read about the breed’s potential health issues. About a year into our search, we came across Nicole through an AI search for English Bulldog breeders and started looking through her website. Right away, we loved her attitude toward responsible, health-focused breeding. What really stood out to us was that she wanted to get to know us and make sure we were a good fit before matching us with one of her puppies. My wife and I were both deployed at the time, so the time difference wasn’t always the easiest, but Nicole was incredibly quick to respond and took the time to explain everything to us in detail. Getting onto the waitlist was simple, and she made sure we had copies of all the necessary documents. Everything went through Good Dog, so we always felt comfortable knowing the process was legitimate and transparent. Throughout the entire process, Nicole kept us informed. She updated us when the breeding started, when ultrasounds were done, how many puppies were expected, and even gave us updates on future breeding dates based on where we were on the waitlist. We honestly couldn’t have asked for someone more communicative. When it came time to choose our puppy, we were further down the waitlist, but several people had decided to move to the next litter, which ended up giving us first choice. Nicole took the time to explain each puppy’s personality, even at such a young age, and sent us tons of pictures and videos. That made choosing our puppy so much easier and gave us a chance to really get a feel for each one before making our decision. When pickup day finally came, Nicole was just as great. She walked us through everything, answered all of our questions, and gave us her honest opinions and advice as first-time dog owners. She genuinely made the entire process of getting our puppy just as enjoyable as actually bringing him home. Our boy Buford was born on July 8, 2026—my dad’s birthday—and we brought him home on September 11, 2026—my mom’s birthday. What a coincidence… it must have been meant to be! Even on pickup day, Nicole’s professionalism and care really showed. She made sure I knew about a potential issue with Buford: his testicles hadn’t descended yet. She explained what that could mean and told me that if his neutering ended up costing more because of it, to let her know and she would cover the difference. Thankfully, they’re already starting to drop, but the fact that she was upfront about it and willing to stand behind her puppies really meant a lot to us. We took Buford to the vet after bringing him home, and our vet told us he couldn’t be healthier. He has been an absolute joy. We adore him, and he has been such a great addition to our little family. He’s incredibly well-tempered, full of personality, and somehow fits right in with us perfectly. We couldn’t be happier with Buford or with our experience with Nicole. She made what could have been a stressful process feel easy, transparent, and genuinely enjoyable from beginning to end. We will absolutely be getting another puppy from Nicole in the future, and I would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for an English Bulldog. Finding a breeder you trust is a huge part of bringing a dog into your family, and we’re incredibly grateful that our search led us to Nicole.

Our experience with Nicole at Bullgodz was wonderful from beginning to end. We came into this process after a heartbreaking experience with our previous breeder and the unexpected loss of our bulldog, Winnie. Winnie had hip dysplasia and an undiagnosed elongated soft palate that affected her breathing. Tragically, we lost her following anesthesia for her spay before she even reached her first birthday. The experience was devastating for our entire family. Because of what happened with Winnie, we were understandably nervous and extremely cautious about choosing another English bulldog and breeder. We had many questions about health, bloodlines, breathing, orthopedic and hereditary conditions, and how the puppies were raised. Nicole understood why we were concerned and never made us feel difficult, overly cautious, or rushed. She was patient, responsive, and transparent, and she took the time to answer our questions throughout the entire process. Before we brought Pepper home, Nicole kept us informed and helped us feel confident in our decision. It was evident through our conversations, as well as her website and social media, that her dogs and puppies are genuinely loved and cared for. That reassurance meant more to our family than she probably realized after everything we had experienced with Winnie and our previous breeder. Nicole also made sure we had everything we needed to help Pepper transition into our home. She sent us home with food, new toys, copies of all our documents, and a discount code for supplements. She also included special litter-specific items, including toys and a blanket that had been with Pepper’s litter and carried the familiar scents of her mother and littermates. That was such a thoughtful touch and helped Pepper have something familiar and comforting as she adjusted to her new family. We have now had Pepper home for only four days, and we are already incredibly impressed with her. She came to us mostly trained to use pee pads, and she is already beginning to let us know when she needs to go outside to potty. At such a young age and after such a short time in a completely new home, that is remarkable. It reflects the time, consistency, attention, and care Nicole gave her before she ever came home with us. My advice to anyone considering an English bulldog is not to be afraid of waiting. Nicole’s waitlist may be long, but waiting for a puppy from an ethical, responsible breeder is far better than rushing to a breeder simply because puppies are immediately available. A waitlist is often a good sign. It means the breeder is thoughtful about when and how often dogs are bred and is not producing puppies just to meet demand. After our experience, we firmly believe the right puppy from the right breeder is worth the wait. Pepper is beautiful, affectionate, playful, and full of personality. She has adjusted wonderfully and already feels like part of our family. Most importantly, our experience with Nicole helped restore our confidence after a painful previous experience and the loss of a dog we loved deeply. We are incredibly grateful that Nicole entrusted us with Pepper and would absolutely recommend Nicole and Bullgodz to anyone looking for a well-loved and well-cared-for English bulldog puppy. Now, if we could just convince Nicole to add a few more dogs to her home so she could breed us a “Salt” to go with our Pepper… 😉
