About Us:
We are in northwest rural New Jersey, USA.
It was at Westminster Dog Show in 2001 that we first saw, and fell in love
with this breed. We were there watching the terrier group judging, and
saw a Bully playfully "challenging" the dog ahead of it in the lineup.
The silly personality, beautiful sloping head, compact muscular body, and
short, sleek coat appealed to us. Unfortunately, we had missed the
opportunity to meet any breeders that day. I immediately started
searching the internet for all the information I could find about Miniature
Bull Terriers. We ended up getting on a waiting list of a breeder on
the West Coast. After about 6 months, I got an email from Australia
asking if we were looking for a Mini. The breeder we were waiting to
hear from had passed the word on to a friend of hers who was a breeder in
Australia. We decided to take the plunge and Leilani was on her way soon after. Little
did we know how our lives would change, but now I can't imagine life without
these crazy dogs around.
We have a great love
for the breed and a concern for it's future. I would recommend to anyone
considering a Miniature Bull Terrier that you get out to shows, meet the
dogs, talk to dedicated breeders, and educate yourself about the health
issues that face this breed. If you get through all that and still want
one, you're probably just crazy enough to be owned by one of these dogs!
We are members of the Miniature Bull Terrier Club of
America and support the Member's Code of Ethics. Please check out the
MBTCA website to see the Code of
Ethics, as well as more breed information, health updates, and show

mini bulls in general.
In July 2007, we got our first standard Bull Terrier,
Karma. She is an absolute love and we are so
thrilled to have her. We are now also members of the Central New
Jersey Bull Terrier Club and have applied for membership to the Bull Terrier
Club of America- please go to the BTCA
website for any information about Bull Terriers or to find a Bull
Terrier puppy. |
