Meet the breeder

I'm Katie Z., the breeder behind Semper Fi Bulldogs located in Jacksonville, FL. Our dogs are bred for health, temperament, and intelligence. We strive to produce the best overall pets and family members. The loyalty and loving disposition of this breed are simply the best! We put a great deal of effort into raising our litters to ensure our puppy families will have the best experience raising their new family members.

Q. & A. with Katie

  • Why did you start breeding?

    We are a Marine Corps family, and I even grew up in a Marine Corps family. Both of my parents were officers and from a small age I was always obsessed with the English bulldog. it had been my dream to own one, and when I finally made that dream come true, I was over the moon. A few years later I met and amazing woman who mentored me through every step of the breeding process.
  • What makes your program special?

    We never match a dam and sire without DNA testing to make sure we are breeding puppies with the most optimal health possible, and I provide a 12 month health guarantee.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.

    Katie was so wonderful to work with. She was very thorough in providing me with all puppies vet records and background information. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Our puppy is the most perfect little English bulldog with the best temperament. Katie sent constant pictures and updates. I would recommend her to anyone!!!
