Listen To The Scams and False Statements On Internet Websites
How to spot a good breeder and how to spot a bad one! How to spot an INTERNET PUPPY MILL!
Too often each week we receive a phone
call from someone saying my puppy just went blind or the puppy has this or that problem. Each time I get a call like this we know
that in most cases it is a known problem the "Breeder" had to be aware of when they sold them the puppy.
Most Breeders sell
what we call CULLS.
(The
LEFTOVERS of what they do not want themselves)
Do not kid yourself by
thinking they are selling you anything that is GREAT.
We do not sell culls and only breed genetically. The GBBA is the ONLY Genetic Breeder in the USA.
In the USA it is hard to find
a bulldog pedigree that does not contain linage to “Little Ponds” “Titus” “Newcomb” “Phenix” “Cedarlane” “King Faroook” in the pedigree.
Most of these breeders are experts at selling you a CULL and keeping the really good stuff for themselves.
They are almost as much
an expert at CLONING another Champion by their close line breeding of dogs as well. Most of the line breeding in the USA is forbidden
in nearly every other country of the world. You should be asking yourself why?
What do we mean by CLONING and line breeding? Think
of it like this … if your family only bred with cousins, uncles, aunts, sisters, brothers, grandparents and yes even mother to son
and father to daughter ,the genetic gene pool would become very narrow. Yes you would all resemble each other but your sickness and
disease would increase by tapping into the same genetic pool.
THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A MINI BULLDOG.
THAT IS A PERSON BREEDING RUNTS TO ONE ANOTHER. RUN FROM THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You know as well as I do that when we go to the
doctor in most cases we are asked if there is any history of heart disease in our family. Nearly every breeder in the USA considers
Grandpa to Granddaughter the number ONE breeding.
THINK WITH ME. If Grand Pa had a bad heart that same bad heart more than likely
was passed onto the Granddaughter from the mother ... Now when Grand Pa has SEX with the Granddaughter the puppies born are at more
than DOUBLE the risk of heart problems.
Several people with Masters degrees have called me complimenting me on my genetic conclusions.
Each always asked me how I managed to come to such understanding with no formal training in Bio Genetics? I responded each time with
the same answer ...
It is really very simple ...
If Grandpa has sex with his Granddaughter we are going to throw his ass in jail ,not put him in a show
ring and give him a champion title. Likewise if Daddy has sex with his daughter and MOM with her son they are both going to JAIL with
Grandpa!
Most American Bulldog Breeders tap into the same gene pool repeatedly with little regard for HEALTH. They breed for two reasons:
money, and more money, by line breeding another cloned Champion. Most breed Grandpa to Granddaughter and that is considered the number
one breeding, Mother to son, and father to daughter, with NO care for health. This ignorant mentality is predominate and the carnal
logic is IF that makes a “Champion” then lets do it over and over. "We can sell the CULLS to the public what do they know." If you
want to see what I mean go to a bulldog show and look at the fat boring line bred pigs they call bulldogs.
In
a while I will tell you why they are so interested in CLONING champions.
For now let me point out the common LIES you will hear or
read on their web sites. I assure you that after they read this they will remove the statements. First beware of cheap "homemade"
websites complete with barking dogs, puppy feet and stupid music. If it looks like it was a website out of a box and put together
in a trailer it probably was.
1. “We only breed to improve the breed.” LIE .
The real truth is that in all of their “breeding to improve
the breed” they have not added one day to the life to a Bulldog or solved any health problems. In most cases because of their inbreeding
by INCEST they have actually INCREASED the health problems of Bulldog intentionally.
In the last 30 years the life span of a bulldog
has dropped dramatically because of ruthless line breeding of money hungry breeders. None of the line breeding is necessary.
2. We
only breed once in a while and “occasionally” have a few puppies for sale to "approved homes" “we are not in it for the money.” LIE
If they are not in it for the money then why not SPAY and NEUTER every puppy and donate ALL of the money to charity. Hypocrites! The
"approved homes" CRAP is to judge if you are a serious buyer and to make them look credible when you talk with them "as if they are
concerned about where the dogs go." WAKE UP - if they are line breeders do you really think they care about where the dogs go?
The only approval you need is money!
3. Any web site that talks about the “numerous” health problems of a bulldog or has articles
about bulldog "issues" as a “guide to help you” RUN from any such site.
The truth is that they are probably trying to “educate you”on dogs that they breed that have KNOWN health problems because of their incestual quest for champions and money. That is why
when your dog goes blind or cannot walk they can say, “See I told you so.” "That's just how it is with bulldogs they are a tough breed."
I actually purchased two females from one "Champion Breeder" in Houston Texas (The Rocket City) who knew the puppies had a chance
of developing severe mange problems when he sold them to me. He did take them back only to resell one to an Idiot who called me and
said that was "okay." How blind can you be? As blind and stupid as you want to be. I am sure he will end up line breeding the infected
girl with genetic mange.
If you breed dogs with health problems you will get dogs with health problems. Kind of like usingCHEAP parts to begin with.
4. THIS IS VERY CRITICAL IN YOUR SEARCH ON THE INTERNET. Watch out for bulldog brokers who list page
after page of bulldogs. Often they will have listings with various kennel clubs. They never show you their facilities but operate
under the mantle of helping you FIND a puppy.
These websites are just a guy that has hooked up with puppy mills and some of the worst
breeders in the world and created an electronic Internet Puppy Mill. BEWARE of long lists of puppies for sale. Just like a pet store
that brokers puppies you must realize that this is an Electronic puppy broker. I have bad deal after bad deal call me about one of
these Internet puppy Mills weekly. If you are that stupid to buy a dog from on of these places you deserve what you get.
It should
be obvious to you that they are hooked up with breeders who farm their dogs through them. NEVER accept any puppy without AKC or FCI
registration. FCI must be guaranteed by the breeder to be cross registered with AKC. (AT NO ADDITIONAL CHARGE.)
While the AKC has
major problems when you see any other type of registration RUN from the place. That would include UKC, NKC and APR or any other registration
they dream up. The breeding registration is so loose that it is not worth the paper it is written on. Often many low grade breeders
start their own registry to make it look official to you. MINI BULLDOGS ARE NOT RECOGNIZED BY THE AKC. The dummies made their own
registration club.
NEVER buy
a dog from RUSSIA and watch out for dogs from Africa.
Frankly if you read much of the stuff on the Internet about Bulldogs it will
scare you to death to ever own one. Most of the garbage you read is from breeders who produce an inferior animal by an act of their
own greed. I do not breed dogs with known health problems.
Bulldogs, if they are not line bred will have no more problems
than any other breed of dog that is common to that breed. Every breed has their own little things to look out for and Bulldogs are
not any different. I do not care if a breeder says his dogs hips are “certified” and the winner at Westminster that means nothing
to the next puppy if they are line breeding. Anyone can get an X-ray of a bulldog and make the same statement about that dog. The
problems is that if they knowingly line breed like Phenix Bulldogs does, chances are the gene will pop up in a puppy.
Here Is A VERY Serious
Fact That Few Know
Between 15% and 20% of nearly every bulldog litter born in the USA has had some very strange genetic Anomaliy happening
for over the past 7 years. It seems that entire litters are being born with their legs BACKWARDS. When this first happened the "Big
Shot Champion Cloning Breeders" killed the entire litter. I seriously believe that this genetic Anomaly is a result of close line
breeding (Mother-Son, Father Daughter, Grand Father-Grand Daughter.)
Later, the dummies found out that if you waited about 21 days
the legs would turn back around.
SO GUESS WHAT?
For The Last Seven Or Eight Years The Market Has Been Flooded
With The Fruit Of Puppies Born From This Strange GENE.
"Just Make The Money The Hell With The Dogs!"
I personally cannot imagine what must be next! I do not know about you, but I
do not want a puppy that was born with it legs backwards EVEN if they turn around again! The dummies are actually including this in
their ongoing "public education" so that you will know what to "expect" as a possible future problem. Look up the mange breeders in
Houston (Rocket City) and you will find an article about this line bred genetic Anomaly.
We
do not breed dogs with known health problems and breed only in this order.
Health, Personality, and Show Quality. However, most of the time we are A + in all three categories.
Eight years ago we began to experiment
with separating the Line Bred dogs as far back as five generations and spaying or neutering every dog with a health problem. What
began as a genetic experiment turned into a demand for the fruit from my genetic experiments. As you might imagine we are not popular
with line breeders. Ask if I care.
It took a lot of work, but today ALL of our dogs have NO line breeding in their pedigree and most
come from strong highly selective bloodlines. We think we are making great progress in really improving the health of our dogs.
Champions,
Champions, Champions, why does everyone claim champion stock? Why do breeders and show dog people want to “Champion” a dog? Most will
tell you that they show dogs for the “FUN” and the competition and we are sure a handful might but the rest are full of BALONEY! (Just
another lie.)
Just because a dog has "a Champion" in its pedigree does not mean you are getting a great dog. In fact, the more champions
in a pedigree of a bulldog the greater the chance of line breeding. In Europe where we own 8 Champions we breed only to healthy females
with great personalities that are a great genetic match more than an attempt to create another Champion. We spend months looking for
3 year old females who can be checked for past health and re-checked prior to breeding based on one thing HEALTH.
Dog shows and judges
are extremely political. I know of offers made to women from “if you will sleep with me tonight” to kick backs, bribes and “favors”
or I will champion your dog or give you some points ... If you will. Specialty Bulldog shows are the worst of all being
more political and dirty than any presidential election. Recently I showed Limited Edition at a show in Long Beach California. He
beat every dog hands down but could not beat the crooked Judges who are angry at our words and exposure of their evil ways.
So Why Champions?
... Here is why.
A Champion male or female if marketed well can fetch a price of well over $100,000.00. A male Champion can allow
the owner to sell semen to thousands of females by artificial insemination bringing in as much as $10,000.00 to $20,000.00 per month.
This is why you can find so many pedigrees full of "Little Ponds" “Titus” “Newcomb” “Phenix” “Cedarlane” and “King Faroook.” They
SELL a lot of semen and puppies ... but then they are only in it to improve the breed. (Yeah right!)
Now do you understand why some
people want to CLONE a Champion by tapping into the same genetic pool by breeding so close in line breeding? The power of the almighty
dollar. Who cares about real health of the Bulldog ,just make me one that looks good. What do I care if we see them INCREASE in health
problems. Just sell off the CULLS - besides they are cute fat and full of wrinkles what does the public know?
If you go to enough
Bulldog Specialty shows, you will see what we mean. They all look close to one another and are quite BORING, because most American
Bulldog Breeders are masters at CLONING another champion from a small gene pool by breeding with methods of INCEST.
WOULD SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME WHAT IS THE DEFINITION OF A PUPPY MILL?
LOOK FOR THIS SYMBOL
The largest bulldog puppy mill referral center in the United States is the Bulldog Club of America.
(BCA) Well there went my membership. They are experts at promoting the breeding “to improve the breed” crap and the “we only breed
to show” crowd as if they are promoting improving the "bulldog standard." Why they can put you in contact with a "reputable breeder"
who only sells to "approved homes" , just fill out this form and we will have them contact you about your puppy. (It is from this
crowd that the first puppies were born with their legs backwards.) Right Judge Jimmy? But we must remember their motto "of breeding
to improve the breed" Yeah RIGHT!
They must know that many of their members are running puppy mills as they "refer" you to a breeder
in Oklahoma, Arkansas, Missouri, Kansas, Alabama, Mississippi, Florida, and Kentucky. RUN FROM A DOG IN THOSE STATES.
If the AKC ever
investigates those bulldogs that have been artificially inseminated by these “respectable breeders", they will have to destroy thousands
of records and AKC registrations because on a whole members of the BCA ship semen with no valid documentation by a veterinarian. Nor
can there be found any proof that a veterinarian was ever involved in the extraction of the semen. I think under any discovery under
RULE 26.1 there will be a lot of false papers easily exposed.
Most of these "respectable breeders" extract the semen themselves and
then have the "customers" send them the paperwork where it is turned into the AKC by the breeder as having "witnessed the breeding."
Right Liz? If the AKC were to wake up and smell the coffee they would know most of this would have been a physical impossibility and
NO ONE traveled anywhere to be inseminated by the CLONED semen selling line breeders.
"We are proud members of the BCA". Yes I was
a member. I found out what was being done to the breed that I loved so much by select people trying to appear to others that they
really cared about the breed while they were actually intentionally INCREASING the sickness of the bulldog with their Incestual Line
Breeding all for a $$$$.
I take every effort to ensure that all puppies at our location are of the best in health, quality, personality,
and show quality. If you decide to show I would encourage you to only enter AKC shows and to stay away from the politically infected
Bulldog Specialty shows where the Cloners pit Clone against Clone. The judges of the shows all know each other and are normally LINE
BREEDERS THEMSELVES so you can only imagine the "favors."
I have personally introduced some exciting new gene pools in all of my dogs
and I think it will keep me on the cutting edge to a healthier bulldog. To understand what I am saying think back on how the common
Heinz 57 mutt normally has a longer healthier life than most pure breeds. Why? Because they are not breeding back to mom and dad and
Grand Pa is not out humping the grand daughter.
This type of information and exposure will not make me a popular man with breeders
,but at 58 go ahead ask me if I care. It is time to tell the truth to the public and for breeders to quit producing such genetic garbage
and selling unwanted CULLS to the public ... for the almighty dollar. I work three times as hard as any breeder who just sits around
and LINE BREEDS CLONING one dog after another. My intention is to educate the public and perhaps prick the conscience of many breeders
I know across the nation.
It is for this reason our websites carry a warning about a $1500.00 dog from a backyard breeder. Jethro
and Ellie Mae will sell you anything because they will breed anything!
RUN from a website that is cheap and has a few bulldogs. They
are the worst because they will keep a girl to breed to DAD as the ignorant mentality is normally "We sure did good on that last litter
didn't we Jethro?"
Unfortunately, today the breeders you think should be good at breeding healthy bulldogs are as bad or worse than
a $1500.00 backyard breeder in most cases. Please do not call me and insult yourself with "I just want a pet I do not want a show
dog." Let me see if I understand you ... you want the quality ... but do I have something of little lesser in health and quality that
is maybe a little deformed or perhaps not up to the bulldog standard ... "you know something CHEAPER." NO! We are not the place
for you to shop.
We have spent far more on developing our dogs than you will ever comprehend. You can look all you want and our dogs
are the best you will see on the Internet. Our dogs are not boring and they have features that took years to breed into them. This
is why YOU will not find dogs that come close to ours in physical appearance. When you finally decide to spend your hard earned money
for a Bulldog I think you should get more than some genetic leftover CULL. WE DO NOT SELL CULLS. You can actually get pick of the
litter. I hate breeding but in order to really test genetically I must breed and there is always fruit from the breedings.
Here is
some free advice that will help you Wal-Mart Shoppers while you search through the maze of bulldogs to get the "best deal" at the
cheapest price....
Never buy a puppy that you do not see all of the parents and grand parents. Never buy a puppy from anyone that
will ship or sell you an eight-week-old puppy. We normally do not release a puppy until 12 weeks of age. Most health issues in any
puppy will normally appear between 8-12 weeks of age and this is when we test them the most.
Ask a breeder if they breed Grandfather
to Granddaughter or if they line breed. Beware of over stated health guarantees. NEVER buy a puppy unless the breeder shows you their
facilities and that would not be concrete pens and or a picture of a dog in a backyard. Demand to see where and how a dog is kept
and watch out for the common claim that “our dogs are home raised” in a family of love ... That is the trademark statement of a backyard
breeder.
If you ever buy a bulldog, I do not care what kind of dog you have had in your life, you will never own another dog other
than a Bulldog for the rest of your life. I think it should be the best you can find.
Good Luck In Your Quest For A Quality Bulldog
