“The purchase of an American Bulldog puppy should be a stress free and enjoyable transaction. But we are aware that there are a few disreputable breeders and kennels out there that turn the entire situation into a nightmare. It is our intention to draw attention to these "few."

There are a number of ways one can search for the perfect puppy, newspaper ads, personal referral, and of course, the internet. More and more buyers use the internet to search for an American Bulldog.

Internet use frequently means that the kennel is outside of the purchaser’s geographic area. For a disreputable kennel or breeder this scenario is a dream come true because they will insist on upfront payment for the puppy and freight charges.

“There are numerous, fairly sophisticated looking American Bulldog web sites to choose from when searching for a puppy. The web sites often include happy family photos, prestigious awards won at NKC or ABD events, and some even have special areas for references from previous buyers. The unsuspecting buyer is lulled into believing that he or she has found a breeder one can trust. Most of the time this is true; but what happens if this is not the case?”, continues Carter.

There are two scenarios that can turn a transaction into a nightmare for the buyer. The first is that there are breeders and kennels that have deliberately misled the buyer in various categories such as the condition or lineage of the puppy. The second situation involves those breeders that are so arrogant and self important that they feel they are above the law just by virtue of their "credentials."

If you end up buying from an unscrupulous breeder, you will not have to wait long to find out. If there is anything wrong with the puppy on arrival, a reputable breeder will quickly move to rectify the situation. The smarmy breeder will throw out all kinds of excuses in an attempt to placate the buyer.

“The operative word is "delay!" The longer the breeder can convince the buyer that the puppy is actually OK, and that the "real" problem is the buyer's ignorance and lack of experience with American Bulldogs; the greater chance the buyer will either "bond" with the puppy and decide not to press the issue, or simply realize the arduous task at hand in rectifying the situation.”

“We know this type of "horror story" when dealing with a breeder or kennel is out there, and we want anybody that has experience one to please post their comments on our blog. By doing so, will provide valuable information to future buyers of American Bull Dogs. The goal is to help people wishing to purchase an American Bulldog, avoid unscrupulous breeders and kennels," concludes Carter.

Mr Carter was quick to point out that our blog is to draw attention only to the dishonest members of the American Bulldog community. There are hundreds of honest, hard working breeders and kennels in the US and he support their efforts.
