Breeding English Bulldogs

[Daisy and Delilah]

Hi and welcome to Pet Talk. I am no expert so I usually don't get involved with these types of threads. However, after reading the thread all the way through from the beginning, I was beaming with pride for my fellow Pet Talkers. Proud that they all gave you their expert opinions completely without malice or judgement. Sometimes these threads have gotten ugly but this one never did until you replied back to everybody. I don't understand it. What was it that upset you so badly? No one intended negativity in any way towards you so please don't take it that way. You asked for advice and you got it. What more did you want?

You came for advice and opinions, and that's what you got. Please don't take offense to it, just because its not what you want to hear. Did you completely skip over the posts that some members DID make that gave you tips (one that stood out to me was the one made by bckrazy)? As a whole, I think this thread is very informative and not at all negative in any aspect. Please don't take it the wrong way, and definitely don't take offense to it. At least you're asking for help and adive where others would never do it and just think "hey this breed is cute, lets stick two together and see what happens. I'm sure they'll have cute puppies!".

And it is not your job/role to assist me in how to manage my finances for vet visits, emergencies, dog supplies..

Wait, what? You asked for advice, and you got it. Nobody is telling you what to do, saying you're dumb or stupid, nobody! I REALLY think you got the entirely WRONG idea from this post. You want us to be open-minded with you, you must be open-minded with all of us as well. As lv4dogs stated, we don't know you or your situation as you did not tell us, how were we to assume?? We certainly can't read your mind.

Am I blind to rude comments or something? Because I see none! NONE at all! As said by Vela, you are the only one saying rude unessacary things. You asked for our suggestions and we gave them. If you wanted them so bad, you got them.

And no Maltese Love isn't my "follower" either =) LOL what an odd thing to say. But rather than retype things here, when we agree with someone's post we just agree with them, doesn't many ANYONE a follower, just makes us like minded on that point. Everyone here has their own minds and opinons and sometimes we just happen to agree. Not sure why that's hard to understand. Had you explained yourself more in the first post you wouldn't have received those replies, but we aren't mind readers and you came across like you didn't know anything about breeding, not sure why that offends you but to each their own.

To be perfectly honest it really did sound like, just in your first short post, you hadn't researched much. I hate to assume, but that's the vibe I got. Please don't feel offended - everyone here is VERY passionate about pets and breeding ethically. And, we've had some one here recently asking about breeding English Bulldogs to make money... as if EB's aren't one of the most difficult and expensive breeds to whelp ;0)!

I'm VERY relieved that you've done all of the research and found great breeders to learn from! Thats awesome! I really do hope you share your experience on PT, it's a great place to come to for advice and sharing pictures!!
