Meet the breeder

I'm Paul M., the breeder behind Hippo's Bullies located in Austin, TX. Our AKC registered bulldogs are raised in a loving home environment, surrounded by love. Health, temperament, and quality are at the core of everything we do. Whether you're wanting a laid back companion or addition to your family, we are here to provide the perfect bulldog to your home and heart.

Q. & A. with Paul

Why did you start breeding?
What started as simply giving a dog a loving home quickly turned into a deep appreciation for the breed’s unique personality, loyalty, and charm. As we learned more, we became passionate about promoting responsible breeding practices and raising healthy, well-tempered bulldogs in a loving, family environment.
What makes your program special?
By keeping our program small, we’re able to focus on quality over quantity and give each puppy the individual care, attention, & early socialization they deserve. Our dogs are raised in our home & treated as members of the family from day one. Our goal is to raise healthy, well-tempered English Bulldogs for loving families where children can grow up with a loyal best friend and lifelong companion.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include lilac tri-color, black tri-color, and brindle. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
