Q. & A. with Thomas
Why did you start breeding?
After purchasing our lifetime partner, Roxanne, I became very impressed with the Bull Terrier breed. She was very different from other breeds of dogs I owned in the past. An interest developed, and I wanted to breed a quality pup that would be an attribute to the breed as a family companion or quality enough for the show ring should that interest you.What makes your program special?
We strive to breed quality dogs for pet or show quality.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

Parent health testing
Great level
Wilkins farms reports to performing the health tests below on their breeding dogs. Ask your breeder about the tests performed on the parents of your litter. Learn more about health testing for Bull Terriers.
Patellar Luxation
Knee testing reduces the chance of passing down Patellar Luxation, which results in the kneecap becoming displaced or dislocated and can cause mild to severe joint pain.
Congenital Deafness (BAER, registered with OFA), Kidney Disease (UPCR)
A breeder may perform additional tests on their dogs that do not fall into these general categories. These tests may be more uncommon or very specific to a particular breed.
Lethal Acrodermatitis (LAD), Bull Terrier Type
Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).
