Each breeding is carefully managed with progesterone timing to determine accurate breeding dates and ultrasound to confirm pregnancy. Old McDonald Bulldogs puppies are born and raised inside our home in a safe and clean environment where they are under watchful eye, exposed to a lot of human contact, and early socialization. Puppies have their first veterinary wellness checkup at four weeks, my vet administers all shots and a wellness check is provided at each visit. A final veterinary wellness visit and health certificate is provided prior to leaving for their new homes. Puppies are micro-chipped for permanent identification using res, Pet Identification system. Puppies are wormed routinely and vaccinations begin at 6 weeks of age. Puppies are available for adoption at nine weeks of age provided all puppies are on the same social and psychologically developed level.

Early puppy socialization and obedience training is very important. This responsibility is not just the responsibility of the breeder but should be continued by the puppy’s new parents until at least a year of age. Continuing education and research is paramount to the improvement of this wonderful breed. As breeders, it is our responsibility to educate ourselves constantly, as well as educating potential English bulldog owners. AND, it is our responsibility to protect, preserve, and improve the breed!

Breeding English Bulldogs can cost you the life of your beloved female as well as the entire litter. If the litter should survive without mom, few will live unless 24 hour care for three weeks is administered. If you are lucky enough to keep your female and her puppies, around the clock care for the first three weeks is highly recommended. Picking an exceptional male and female as described by the AKC standard is vital. If you can not commit to bettering the breed and total care of the puppies regardless of the scenario, DO NOT BREED!
I strongly encourage you to research the breed, familiarize yourself with the health of the English bulldog, and view our recommended sites before you begin your search for a puppy. Give serious consideration to where and from whom you purchase a puppy from.
