SCP 799U aka Sol! He is a bold little dude, first to walk, first to eat solids, first to escape containment no matter how tall I make the barrier. He is outgoing and a charmer, loves to be held any which way and wave his little feets at you and make funny noises. VERY kissy and lovey, especially likes patting your face when you stop kissing him. He is available.

Edited to add: We just got his embark results in and Sol is CDDY clear!!! Very exciting and a good opportunity for anyone looking for that

Mango is 5 weeks today and looking so handsome! He is a gentle soul like Ronan, content to just be held and watch the world go by. Has been a Rockstar through a bath and three nail trims, and is learning how to walk on a leash! He is available.

*We are expecting puppies the first week of December 2023!*

Sire: Ronan
embk.me/ronan9550
lilac shaded sable
18" tall
28 lbs
45.7% Boston Terrier - 38.7% French Bulldog - 9% Bulldog - 6.6% Beagle

The Good: EVERYTHING. He is the most perfectest little polite gentleman I have ever met. Never puts a foot wrong, sensitive, intuitive, deliberate, kind. Pretty much idiotproof. Walks on a loose leash, loads up onto and into anything I ask, comes when called, all without any formal training at all. Responds correctly to various gesticulations and mouth noises. Plays like a typical bull breed, full of wrestling and flailing and derp face. Very good bite inhibition without any work put in. Friendly with strangers when given permission, but doesn't lose his mind when anyone looks at him. Gentle and diffident with strange dogs. Indifferent to strange cats. Will bark for good reason, and shuts up when you ask. Eats anything anytime anywhere. He's just the neatest little potato dude.

Physically sound, leaps like a gazelle, goes hard for toys and flirtpole and breaths silently even when working on a hot day. OFA Spine and Hips pending.

The Bad: 100% certified Himbo. also eats p**p.

Dam: River
embk.me/river9550
black and tan piebald merle
14" tall
16 lbs
73% Cavalier King Charles Spaniel - 27% Miniature Australian Shepherd

The Good: Sweet, sassy, bossy, but in an affectionate way. Wants belly rubs and wants them NOW, peasant! Loves snuggling and being up in someone's arms, doesn't matter who. Definitely a cat goddess in a former life. Give her warms and worship and she's happy. More of a thinker than Ronan, will patrol the perimeter of the yard and glare at so much as a leaf out of place. A little bit of a barker but always for good reason. SO sweet and cuddly like yall I cannot emphasize this enough. She would like to meld her body with your face. Pretty smart, but uses it for chaos.

Coat is absolutely on point. Soft, SO SOFT YOU HAVE NO IDEA, but like teflon. never mats or tangles, never needs brushing, never needs bathing. and her tail waves fabulously in the breeze.

The Bad: Too good for this whole "coming when called" thing. Has her own agenda and does it, and if you rush her she's gonna start over and we will both be here all day. Dainty picky eater. Doesn't really play with toys or other dogs, too busy being regal.

What I expect from this litter:
Some with each parents temperaments, but good pets regardless of who they take after. these dogs are SO dang easy. I am disabled and do not have the time or energy these days to put a ton of work into my dogs and these are the best babies Iv ever owned, with zero work put in. Affectionate and chill puppies that take everything in stride. Physically they will be fairly generic dog looking, soft floppy ears, medium muzzle length, medium leg and back length. Nothing special looking, but cute as heck. Coat will be smooth and short. Colors will be black or chocolate based: sable and sable merle, with or without white. Merles may have blue eyes.

What you can expect from me:
I am here for your puppy. Forever. If you are local, I will babysit, groom, cut nails, and help you train if you run into problems. If you are not local, I will try to network you with people who can help, or offer advice over the phone or chat. I do extensive socialization and exposure to things, so you can expect to get a confident happy puppy that has the best possible start to their life. We will be utilizing Puppy Culture soon, but for this litter I haven't had time to buy the materials and do the workshops yet. We wean puppies onto litterboxes with pellets so they have a head start on potty training when you get them. We feed Purina Pro Plan small breed puppy to our litters, but you are welcome to switch them to whatever works for your family or that is recommended by your vet. All puppies will be fully up to date on medical care and vaccines, and we recommend continuing their vaccinations as well as getting them microchipped when they are big enough. They will be started on leash walking, kenneling, nail dremeling, and overall handling such as standing on a grooming table, allowing examination, brushing, messing with their mouth, etc.

This is the placeholder page for a breed type in development, the Cascadia Bulldog. The CB is a landrace rather than a closed breed, and will be compromised mostly of French Bulldog, Boston Terrier, Pug, and American Bully.

COI will always be 0%, and all relevant health and genetic testing will be done.

We utilize Puppy Culture and appropriate diet and vaccination schedules.

BREED STANDARD
Temperament and health are the highest priority of the Cascadia Bulldog. He is joyful, zealous, eager to work with his family in whatever they want to do. He is silly and clownish, never serious or reserved. He should be ready to play or go on adventures, but equally content to snuggle on the couch on a rainy day. He is confident and amiable to handling from all strangers. He is kind and tolerant of other dogs and pets.

All aspects of the Cascadia Bulldog should harmonize to create an EASY DOG. He is easy to live with, easy to train, does not suffer from chronic mysterious ailments, and should have robust health well into his teens.

PHYSICAL
Height should be 12"-15" at the withers, and 20-30 lbs. [NOTE: this may change as we go and the program seems to produce smaller or bigger. Overall health and soundness is more important than a specific size.]

Head should be wide and relatively short, without exaggeration. Muzzle should be broad and without snipeyness, but never shorter than 33% of the total skull length, nor longer than 50%. Nostrils are open and breathing is silent and easy. There is a scissor bite with no crowding or missing teeth. There should be no excess jowls and lips are to stay tight to the jaws.

Ears may be any size or shape, such as prick, button, rose, or drop, and are never cropped. Eyes are almond or round, but must never show bulging or weeping. Any eye color permissible.

Neck should be clean, proportional to the body and head, and without excess skin.

Shoulders are moderately angled, matching the rear as closely as possible. Elbows are tight to the body. Legs are heavy of bone without being grotesque.

Loin should not be too long or too short, as both inhibit freedom of movement and soundness.

Rear angulation should be moderate and match the shoulders.

Tail is low set and moderately long, reaching the hocks or thereabouts, and carried level or low.

Feet are round or slightly oval, with springy pasterns. Front dewclaws should be present, barring accidental injury.

All colors and patterns permissible.

Short coats are smooth and hard to the touch, and should be glossy, never dull or coarse. Long coats are double coated but not profusely so. Coat is soft and plush, but not prone to matting. Should be close on the body with longer fringe on the ears, mane, backs of legs, and tail.
