My wife and I are looking to buy our first bulldog. We have a 4 year old daughter who is so excited and cant wait to get one. We started out wanting a frenchie but now are leaning towards an english. Our little girl loves one thats in our local pet store but we dont want to buy from a pet store nor can we afford the $ 5,500 price tag thats on it at the time. Weve been doin research non stop but have yet to find a reputable breeder that we fully trust. We want to find one the right way that is from a good breeder and is healthy and free of any scams or shady activity. We live in Staunton, VA. Weve come across many breeders but dont know which one to buy from. We thought we had found a good one in Sugar Plum farms in Purcellville, VA untill I recently found alot of bad reviews on it saying it was a puppy mill. Is this true or is she a good reputable breeder? Can someone please give me some good advice on this breeder and any others that we should or should not buy from? We are very excited and ready to add a wonderful healthy and happy bulldog to our beautiful family. Thanks in advance.
