Q. & A. with Wendy
Why did you start breeding?
When I was a child I was always reading dog magazines and always dreaming about having a farm house full of dogs, I studied Veterinary in Peru which led me to know more about health on this breed, so my goal was breeding healthy and gorgeous dogs,What makes your program special?
I would say my knowledge on the breed standard, when I see a bulldog I value beauty and also health at the same time, I love seeing the proper movement on a bulldog which tells me that the dog possesses good joints and anatomy, I love seeing a bulldog walking and breathing without problems and I love a bulldog with carrot tail, I think knowing the bulldog standard makes you responsible for always looking for the best on your littersWhere do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Breeder-Reported Testing
Great level
De La Venturosa reports to performing the health tests below on their breeding dogs. Ask your breeder about the tests performed on the parents of your litter. Learn more about health testing for Bulldogs.
Cardiac Evaluation (registered with OFA)
Heart testing reduces the chance of passing down congenital heart disease, which can cause a range of symptoms ranging from trouble exercising to heart failure.
Patellar Luxation
Knee testing reduces the chance of passing down Patellar Luxation, which results in the kneecap becoming displaced or dislocated and can cause mild to severe joint pain.
Tracheal Hypoplasia
A breeder may perform additional tests on their dogs that do not fall into these general categories. These tests may be more uncommon or very specific to a particular breed.
