| Metro Bulldogges Welcomes You! |
| A little something about me and my bulldogges When I was first introduced to the Olde English Bulldogge breed, years ago, I was fascinated with the possibility of owning and raising truly healthy, capable bulldogs. I, like so many others, have always loved the English Bulldog but was deterred from that breed due to all the health issues. Therefore, my discovery of this bulldog breed, the Olde English Bulldogge, was a dream come true. I jumped in without any hesitation and spent the next couple of years learning all I could about my beloved Olde English Bulldogge. I am saddened to say that the one aspect of this breed (health and working ablity) that initially attracted me seemed to be more often the exception and not the norm. I came to the conclusion that I was going to do everything I could to perpetuate my dream of a healthy, capable bulldog into a reality. Although n0 dog is perfect, I am doing all that I can to help ensure that I am not breeding any of the health issues into the Olde English Bulldogge that currently plague the modern day English Bulldog. I work very closely with my veterinarian in regards to my breeding program. All of my dogs are currently or are in the process of being hip and elbow x-rayed and DNA tested. This is not a "cure all" but it is a step in the right direction for improving the Olde English Bulldogge breed. Temperament is also an extremely important aspect of the Olde English Bulldogge breed. I prefer a bulldogge that is confident and even-tempered and will continuously breed for such characteristics in my program. My bulldogges are bred to be family companions, and are not bred to be "guard dogs". If you are interested in a guard type bully please contact me and I can recommend some breeders that breed toward that type of bulldogge. One must always remember that the Olde English Bulldogge is a bulldog breed and as the name implies, this breed can be very bull-headed and are known to have great focusing power. That is why we highly recommend obedience training from the very start. Unlike the English Bulldog, Olde English Bulldogges are athletic, free breathing and free whelping. They are intelligent and always eager to please. They are gentle yet very courageous, loyal and willing to love you with their entire heart. To learn more about the Olde English Bulldogge please visit our OEB vs EB page. We only produce 2-3 litters per year. This makes it possible to devote more time attention to each litter that we produce. Our puppies are always born inside the comfort of our home insuring they are not exposed to the outdoor elements. This environment provides wonderful conditions for health, nourishment, growth, and safety. Our puppies are interacted with by the whole family on a daily basis. They are very well socialized by the time they arrive at their new home. All of our bulldogges are always current on all vaccinations and have regular check-ups for any underlying health conditions.
