Why a mini?

People call me every single day saying they don't want a 60, 70 or 80 pound bulldog. Bulldogs are being bred too big, and that goes against the breed. That's why I got into breeding mini and micro bulldogs.

A mini is still heavy, because a real bulldog has thickness. But it's a lot more compact, and you get more consistency in the size. Minis are super chill, loving, kid friendly and family friendly. They're not the dog that runs a mile with you. They chill with you and play with the kids, and they live inside with the family.
