Just a word of advice, better off to stay out of the pet store, there is nothing good about them and you will fall into the trap of falling in love with a puppy, and dropping way too much on a puppy mill dog. You can go to a shelter and play with the dogs there!

Re: does someone want to give me $2K for a puppy?

I don't even want to go into the whole Puppy Mill/ Pet Store thing.
I can only say, please don't buy that puppy...all you do is give the pet store and puppy mills a reason to replace it.
Take a look at Robynfs' post re: puppymill rescue.

Check the AKC website for recommended Bulldog breeders or look on Petfinders...
or as someone else said - volunteer to play with the puppies at a shelter and fall in love with a needy pup....Chat Icon

Bullys are great! but totally expensive and have a lot of health issues-- if you are really interested, I can recommend the bulldog rescue that I got Sarge from.

Just bumped my post about our not-so-new addition so you can see my bully.

We used a bully rescue in NJ but the Long Island Bulldog Rescue is a good place to start.

Bulldogs are expensive from breeders because they require a c-section birth. They have health problems - mine is a perfect example - especially with breathing.

They require a lot of care in terms of grooming (things get stuck in the folds) but they are great dogs.
