After looking at breeders for French and British bulldogs to welcome a new puppy into our home I have been concerned. There seems to be one breeder who advertises litters very often in both British and French bulldogs. Three plus litters a year. At the moment the British bulldog has a black, brown and slight white colour pup in picture.
What measures are in place to prevent this. In my opinion this is a backyard breeder. They have had umpteen litters, in both breeds. I have been stung by someone who advertised her before and walked away $250 out of pocket and no puppy. I also nearly lost a deposit on another breeder who advertised here but was fortunate that my previous experience has me asking many questions and when they couldn't give me name of condition the puppy had and hid our visit, kept me in garage, while someone was viewing other pup I decided that I will go with my gut. Even with a 'discounted price' a breeder not knowing the name of the condition the pup had, only just been at vet set alarm bells.
Other than seeking out the set dog clubs, it seems like like a few, not all abuse this outlet for advertising, again in my opinion. I have experience in other breeds as I have only been looking for those breeds.
