Q. & A. with Angelina
Why did you start breeding?
I purchased by first dog at 14. He was backyard bred and came from a not-so reputable breeder. It was an experience I wouldn’t wish upon anyone. Lupe got me into American Bullies, and I slowly developed a passion for producing phenomenal puppies and being the breeder my 14 year old self wish I had met.
My puppy’s owners are part of the family, and I offer life long support to any of my buyers.
What makes your program special?
We’re one of the few American Bully programs that focuses a lot on health. On GoodDog, it’s amazing meeting health testing breeders! Outside of this, for me personally, it’s exceptionally hard to find a breeder who thoroughly health tests their dogs. We focus a lot on producing one of a kind American Bullies, who would excel in sports, PSA, companionship, the show ring, and potentiallyservice work
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include blue brindle, blue, liver, seal brown, brown brindle, brown, and black. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and guardian homes.
