Not this time


Mugsy on the left and Eloise on the right. Eloise is Mugsy's baby from her first litter last summer.

Today we did the ultrasound for Mugsy and she isn't pregnant. No babies this time. We were sad for awhile until we realized it was a mixed blessing. Our daughter Taryn will be having major surgery in July and with puppies coming it would have been hard to raise this litter during the surgery and recovery. Things happen for a reason and maybe this reason was to clear the way for us to be with our family. We are going to breed Harley when she goes into heat in June and hopefully that litter will be available by the end of the year. It's clear to me why bulldogs cost so much, a litter is a small miracle every time. We are going to miss the babies that we were hoping for but next time we'll be in a better place to care for them all.
