Price

If your first question is price, maybe this is not the breed that you should be looking at. Breeding high quality, healthy bulldogs, does not come cheap. Reputable breeders have devoted many years to be able to produce happy, healthy pups. So, buyer beware when buying a puppy! If it seems to be a bargain, be certain that any money saved today would not be spent many times over throughout the dogs life. You will find that most of the top quality breeders will place pet Bulldogs for around the $1800 mark.
