Q. & A. with Tricia
Why did you start breeding?
I had Bulldogs for several years before I started breeding. I began researching, health testing my animals, and certified the results via the Orthopedic Foundation for Animals. I love this breed and find such joy and fulfillment in sharing my love of them with others in a responsible way.What makes your program special?
I am a proud breeder of English Bulldogs and am so excited to share my love of them with the world. My heavy involvement in the show world speaks to the standards that I breed my dogs by. I will always stand behind my puppies.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
