hoping this post finds the correct audience 😇

i do not CO-OWN my stud with anyone. I own my stud outright, and he is registered in MY NAME ONLY with AKC. there is no co-owner listed, there is no co-ownership contract between myself and his breeder. He is MY dog, that I hold full breeding rights to.

I cherish his breeder immensely and we have a close friendship and professional relationship. that being said; we do not share outside business arrangements / information, I have very little knowledge or involvement in other agreements/sales/partnership/busiess deals she makes within her program, because it’s not my business.

lastly, for any of the breeders inside this one particular clique who are obtaining one sided information from a very sour, unreliable source; shame on you for belittling my character based on stories and opinions that are being slithered into your ears. the statements you’ve made based on the assumptions you’ve created, could not be more inaccurate.

my dog, my program, my ethics, will continue to hold priority over the petty drama that comes with this breed, regardless of the picture being painted. I have a beautiful, healthy, health tested stud from an amazing person and mentor whom I wouldn’t even be here without ❤️

you know what they say about opinions 🤪

taking a quick moment to BRAG.

if you know anything about breeding French Bulldogs, you’ll know that the average collection for a stud is 2-3 ml.. Topper gave us 5ml !

you’ll also know the average total s***m count for this breed is about 200-600 mililion… Toppers count was 1.26 BILLION in ONE collection, with over 84% motility.. AFTER 43 HOURS CHILLED!

long story short, we collected him monday afternoon for an overnight shipping, which was delayed by an entire day.. and the semen did not arrive to the vet until 11:30 am today.. 43 full hours of being chilled, and we still got an incredible count with high motility.

that is something to be incredibly proud of, and that I am!

THIS HAPPENED TODAY! 👌🤞🏻🙌

this litter will be nothing shy of AMAZING! incredible structure on both ends, exciting DNA, but most important, ‼️HEALTH‼️

Rumor is a fawn cryptic merle so we could potentially have some merle / brindle merle pups! and both parents carry tan points!

Topper is totally OFA certified, both parents are short and stocky, and have incredible temperaments.

THIS is where quality french bulldogs come from!

UPS reaaalllly tested our patience, but we got it done and couldn’t be more proud! thank you Sarah Gobbi for trusting me and my boy! Confirmation is July 8th, but who’s counting 😅

if you know, you know ! 😜

exciting announcement coming soon 😇

remember Willow, our little baby black Dane? here she is at almost 2 years old, growing BEAUTIFULLY!

her structure and bone tops her brothers ten fold! and as long as her hips and heart get a gold star, these two should compliment each other wonderfully this summer🤞🏻

hello friends!

someone had previously inquired about a Merle Frenchie from me, but I cannot remember who!

If you’re still interested in a Merle, please contact me as i have a close breeder friend with males and females available 💙♥️

Food for thought.

When diving into the French Bulldog, because you think they’re so adorable and squishy and cuddly and cute, make sure you look at the more important things that come with the breed. such as;

-breed relevant health conditions, there’s a FEW.
the breeder youre looking at with pretty colored puppies, do they health test? are they doing more than a basic 4 panel clearance? are they x-rating hips and spines, getting cardiac clearances?

-consider the requirements and restrictions of the breed.
are you aware they don’t do well in the heat? does your breeder check soft palates and nares before breeding a pair?

-is the puppy you’re interested in, from parents that are clear of genetic conditions that could affect the puppy in the long run, but may not be visible from the outside?

-does the breeder you’re looking at, feed quality food that is setting your puppy up to have a healthy immune system, skin and coat? or are they feeding the cheapest food they can find, without worrying about the affect the chemical fillers / preservatives can have on the litter?

there’s more to this breed than just cute puppies with cool markings / colors. we as breeders have a standard to stick to, and obligations to breed ethically and responsibly.

PLEASE do your research on this breed, the commitment they require, and the breeder; before you purchase that super cute frenchie puppy.

Merry Christmas from Adirondacks Top Secret, the fully health tested Brindle, love of my life 😍

my first ride with little Picasso, vs my last ride with him 😩

he went to the most perfect home and gets to see his brother all the time! so thankful for all the puppy buyers giving these boys the best homes possible, and loving them as much as I did.

this was definitely the hardest goodbye, we had this guy the longest and the whole family grew so attached! but he’s happy, so i’m happy 💙

anxiously awaiting his scores !

11/23/2023

it’s OFA DAY!

a nice Thanksgiving Day road trip to MA to finish Toppies OFA’s 👏🏻

this perfect boy is still with us!
how proud am I to call him one of Toppers productions!
he is obtainable to the PERFECT family 👀

11/18/2023

the CLEAR difference between a reputable breeder who strives for structure and health .. and a backyard breeder who breeds anything that breathes.

do your research on EVERY breeder !
ask for proof of health testing !

i’m seeing double 🤩

Picasso is his dads twin and I am O B S E S S E D

so incredibly PROUD to call this big headed hunk MINE!

his temperament is nothing shy of perfect, his structure is impeccable with a big ol head on a short, thick and compact body, with amazing feet!

and goodness did he make amazing babies 😍

I have no idea how Picasso is still with us! he’s a clone of his daddy with the same great structure and sweetest disposition! I’d love for him to be someone’s future stud!

Huk ( Rembrandt ) and Monty ( Monet ) found their forever homes ! I couldn’t have hand picked better families for these babies!

Huk went to live with his cousin Raven, who was bred by one of my friends!

Monty went to live with the best friend of VanGoghs new owner! so they get to grow up together 🥹

thank you everyone for loving these boys the way I did! and welcome to the Great French family ! 🩵

09/17/2023

this boy is impeccable ! cannot believe someone hasn’t snatched him up!

he produced such beautiful babies and I can’t wait to see what his future holds 🫶🏻
