Breeding a French Bulldog Litter for 'Fun' – Part One

I’ve been engaged in a back and forth correspondence with someone who contacted me by email asking about breeding a litter. I’ve removed all of their identifying details.

Enjoy…

 

Hello, My name is xxx and I just visited your website. I am looking for another frenchie to breed with my sweet, smart as a whip xxxx. No, I am not a breeder and I do not plan on becoming one. You see, this dog has brought so many people in my immediate family happiness, I believe he should be cloned (sort of speaking) so that everyone can have a piece of him! It was my younger son who purchased xxxx from a Breeder in Brooklyn NY.

 

 

 

xxx has a great look! He is a smooched faced frenchie (is there a name for that?) and he is black except for some small white markings. When my son got as a puppy, he was in school and still had a schedule that permitted plenty of time to be with him. Then summer came, and it was way too hot for to be living in the city so he came to vacation with me. You guessed it, me the furthest thing from a dog lover, fell in love with this dog and don’t really want to let him go. During this year, both my husband who has xxx and has become disabled and my xxxx who has been ill have been so entertained by this dog. I know my dear son feels bad about asking for xxx.

 

 

 

Anyway, that is my story and I am looking for a mate for xxx. I don’t have a lot of money and I know adopting is out since the females come spayed.

 

 

Please let me know any info you have! thanks

 

 

 

 

 

My reply, after the break.

A few less blogs for a while, and the PETA billboard controversy

I’ll be writing a few less blogs for the next few weeks – my car was t boned in an intersection yesterday, and my left hand is broken. One handed typing isn’t my forte…

I’ll just have to make Sean take more puppy photos – it’s high time he learned to use Flickr, at any rate.

Oh, and have you been following the controversy over PETA’s new billboard? In case you haven’t seen it yet, check out their new billboard campaign:

PETA nitwits

I prefer my alternate versions, personally – feel free to borrow either of them.

PETA kills animals

PETA kills pit bulls

Ta Da! Delilah at one month

DelilahDid you think I’d forgotten that Delilah is one month old today?

She’s got a new video, and a new playmate!

See it after the cut.

Or, if you prefer, go visit her new photo set on Flickr.

I hate the HSUS – And you should, too

I’ve known for a while that I hate PETA – come on, who doesn’t hate PETA? They’re a self aggrandizing PR-machine that does sweet f*ck all for the actual welfare of actual animals. They are hypocrites. They are liars. They wear stupid costumes, and they kill more animals than they save.

But the HSUS? The Humane Society of the United States? They’re a humane society, for Gods’ sake. They’re supposed to be all about saving animals – ensuring their humane treatment. Read more
