Meet the breeder
I'm Kathy D., the breeder behind KnockDown Bulldogs located in Harrisburg, PA. We value responsible breeding practices and want to do our part to ensure the Bulldog will continue to thrive. We built our program with care and intention in every step. We are passionate about the health and wellbeing of this breed, and it is our goal to provide each dog that comes from our program with a solid foundation of good health, neurological development, and loving care.
Q. & A. with Kathy
What makes your program special?
Health and confirmation are the most important aspects of my breeding program. I neither breed for "rare" colors that do not meet the AKC standard nor do I set prices based upon color. After doing rescue for several years, the last thing I want is for any of my puppies to end up in rescue. For that reason, I will take a puppy back free of charge if a puppy home is no longer able to provide a homeWhat are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our French Bulldog puppies include brindle, cream, and fawn. Bulldog puppies include red, fawn, brindle, red brindle and white, and red and white. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home and guardian homes.

Getting a puppy from Kathy
Kathy has been certified by Good Dog’s screening team for responsible and trusted breeding practices. When you’re ready, reach out to ask about the puppies or anything else on your mind. You’ll get to know each other through messaging, phone, or video and pay securely, all on Good Dog.
After buyers complete the application and screening process, Kathy partners with them to find the best puppy match.
“The goal is for a family to remain the puppy's forever home. I take care to match each puppy with a home based on temperament and the new home's lifestyle. I like to start the matching process with an initial phone call. When possible, I encourage new homes to schedule a time to visit my home to meet the puppies. I also ask new homes to provide personal references and give new homes the opportunity to reach out to my puppy home references.”
Price
“Price includes vet examinations, vaccinations, worming, AKC registration papers, and a sales contract. Deposit goes toward the total sale price and becomes due after a sales contract is signed by both parties.”
