Q. & A. with Lisa
Why did you start breeding?
We started a search for a French Bulldog puppy. We could not find a breeder that health tested and raised a litter of puppies to my standards anywhere close to us. We imported our first Frenchie not long afterward and our kennel club talked us into competing in conformation with her. That's when we decided to offer high-quality standard Frenchie puppies to qualified pet owners.
What makes your program special?
We take extreme pride in successfully competing in conformation and breeding to the standard of the breed. We health screen all of our dogs and strive to protect and improve the health of the French Bulldog. Our dogs are raised with me in our home and socialized every day according to their age. When they leave our home they are fully prepared and ready to become loving, healthy family members. We love what we do and truly want the very best for our puppies and their forever families.
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are fawn. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
