My kennels
I started breeding dogs in 1999, together with my partner, a former
veterinary nurse.
The French Bulldogs have long fascinated me both with their looks and
their happy and outgoing temperament. In 1996 we decided to buy our
first Bully. "Laurette de Baviere" (pet name Lola) was a real godsend.
As a novice breeder I could not have hoped for a better start and our
thanks go to her breeder Carmen Janotta in Germany for entrusting us
with this wonderful girl who became my foundation bitch.
Lola had a fantastic show career, gaining International, German and
Swiss Champion titles, and has given us some wonderful puppies, among
them "Baron Sumo de Soleure", International Champion and a great stud
dog; "Duke de Soleure" who equally is very successful in the show ring
and so far has gained the title of German Champion. As Duke on his
sire's side (Moustique du Marais Picton) also comes from a successful
bloodline he has, just as his halfbrother Sumo, produced some progeny
which have done us very proud.
I and my partner plan the litters very carefully and we devote a lot
of time to the raising of puppies. Therefore, I usually don't have more
than one or two litters a year. We are aware that breeding dogs is a
great responsibility and the puppies are socialised very carefully so
that their new owners will derive much pleasure from their new
companion.
Right from the beginning the puppies are put in contact with various
environments, with people, including children, and other dogs. My
kennels and outdoor runs are large, clean and light. The puppies are
all kept in the house and are raised in close contact with us and the
adult dogs.
All the dogs have free access to a large garden by means of a swing
door.
Prospective puppy buyers receive thorough advice both before and after
they have bought a puppy from us. Not everybody is suited for this
breed or dogs in general for that matter. A puppy that we have raised
carefully and lovingly is not sold to the first person that comes along
just for the sake of money. This is very important to us as we are very
fond of both the puppies and our adult dogs.
I breed exclusively with pedigrees issued by the Swiss Kennel Club. My
puppies are sold inoculated, microchipped and dewormed. My kennels have
been awarded the "Golden Label" and are regularly inspected by the
Swiss Kennel Club and the Breed Club.
My breeding stock are subject to breed specific health checks as well
as to breeding selection by the French Bulldog Club of Switzerland. My
dogs are also successfully shown both in Switzerland and abroad.
The stud dogs are chosen very carefully with regard to health aspects
and breed standard and we don't hesitate to travel long distances, such
as Holland, France, Denmark, for a suitable mate.
Visitors are always welcome by appointment.
