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 litters

Cardiac Evaluation (rDVM, not registered with OFA)
