Based in Howell, MI, this small-town hobby breeder earns high marks from families for her caring approach, frequent updates, and thoughtful screening of potential homes. Puppies are raised indoors with her children, so they grow up well-socialized with both people and other pets. Her mission is to improve the French Bulldog breed. Each breeding is carefully planned around health, structure, temperament, and pedigree, with the intent of keeping the best prospects to advance her program. Breeding dogs undergo thorough health evaluations, including genetic testing for breed-specific conditions, vet exams, and x-rays. Puppies stay until at least 8 weeks so their health, structure, and temperament can be evaluated; only then are placements finalized.

The rising popularity of French Bulldogs has unfortunately led to an increase in scams and unethical breeding practices. Here’s how to protect yourself:

French Bulldogs are a premium breed. Offers under $3,000 are often a red flag for scams or poor breeding practices.

Use Google Image Search to check if the puppy photos are genuine or stock images.

Look for genuine reviews from verified buyers, ideally with photos of their Frenchies.

Reputable breeders will gladly show you the puppy and answer any questions you have.

Ethical breeders will give you time to make an informed decision without rushing you.
