What makes a true micro

A micro is the smallest end of the breed, with the full bulldog build. Small size comes from breeding small bulldog to small bulldog over generations, and from years of watching how each line grows up.

Most bulldog videos online are deceiving: a big dog can look tiny with the right camera angle. That's why I show my micros as adults, next to French bulldogs, not as puppies. Talk is cheap. Ask for the height of both parents, and video of them moving.

Can you guarantee my puppy will be a micro?

No honest breeder guarantees an exact size, because animals are animals. From the parents, the grandparents and how consistent the line is, I can tell a micro at 8 weeks within about 95% certainty, and I'll never tell you a mini is a micro.
