Meet the breeder

I'm Jared D., the breeder behind Dowds Bulldogs located in Cleveland, TN.

With years of experience and a deep passion for Bulldogs, we strive to bring happiness to families through our exceptional Bulldogs.

Q. & A. with Jared

  • Why did you start breeding?

    Our journey into breeding began with our love for the English Bulldog and a desire to improve the breed. After caring for Jackson, who faced many health challenges, we became committed to producing healthier, well-tempered bulldogs. His legacy inspired us to start breeding with purpose, knowledge, and a focus on quality.
  • What makes your program special?

    What makes our breeding program special is our deep, hands-on experience and unwavering commitment to health, structure, and temperament. We focus on quality over quantity, carefully selecting each pairing to uphold breed standards while reducing common health issues. Our bulldogs are raised in a loving home, setting the foundation for well-socialized, confident companions.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include blue tri-color, fawn and white, and red brindle and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

Breeder-Reported Testing

Good level

Dowds Bulldogs 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.

  • Elbow Dysplasia Finals (OFA, BVA, SV, FCI)

    Elbow testing reduces the chance of passing down elbow dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause arthritis in the elbow joint and front leg lameness.

  • 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.

  • Vet Wellness Exam

    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.

  • Hyperuricosuria (HUU)

    Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).

Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
