People often wonder why we pay and charge $3000 for our fur babies. There are multiple reasons for why we do this and one of those reasons is to ensure that our fur babies do not end up with people like this. Contrary to popular belief, my wife Gidget Baxter Stivala Bodiford and I do not make a lot of money off of these dogs. The hard truth is that we have spent thousands of dollars in purchasing these dogs and paying for vet bills for, not only these animals, but the 9 cats and 3 other fur baby dogs that we have in our home. In the last three years alone we have spent: $200 for a broken shoulder, $800 for treatment of parvo in one of our pets, $2800 in c-sections, and around $1500 in other various vets bills for all of our animals. So far to date, we have only made $3000 for selling 1 puppy and we are probably going to make around $9500 for selling 3 of our current puppies. When combined with the $6000 we spent purchasing Zeus and Athena, we will have spent approximately $11300 and made only a total of $12500 for a total profit of $1200. None of this takes into account the cost of food for all of our fur babies. If you cannot afford to take care of your fur babies, give them to someone who can. Animals did not ask to be our pets, nor do they have a choice, you do however. If you cannot afford the vet bills when they get sick, there are plenty of pet agencies that will help you do what is right for your fur baby. Please do not abandon your fur babies like this woman tried to do. They deserve better.

The goal of all reputable Olde English Bulldogge breeders is to achieve perfection as far as correct breed type, health and temperament.

All IOEBA conformation judges use the IOEBA's official Olde English Bulldogge breed standard as a guide to give themselves a mental picture of breed perfection by which they select future IOEBA conformation champions.

Breed Standard

General Description : The ideal Olde English Bulldogge is a loyal, courageous dog of medium size with a large powerful head and stout muscular body.

Olde English Bulldogges are athletic and most importantly of very good health, males are free breeders and females are free whelpers.

The Olde English Bulldogge is devoid of all breathing issues and is capable of enjoying outdoor activity without concern except in extreme heat or cold.

The temperament is very stable and trustworthy making them a loyal companion, capable protector and the ultimate family member.

Olde English Bulldogges thrive on pleasing their owners and are very trainable.

Their lifespan is between 10 and 14 years.

Head : Large and high, moderately sunken between the eyes (medial furrow).
The circumference of the head should be equal to or greater than the dog's height at the shoulder. A narrow head or one that appears too small for the body is a fault.

Ears : Rose ears set well on the sides of the head are preferred. Dropped ears are acceptable as long they are small, not “hound like”. Full pricked ears that stand up on top of the head should be considered a serious fault.

Muzzle : Broad, deep and short with moderate wrinkling. The bite is undershot with the bottom jaw turning up noticeably. Lower canines should not protrude. Muzzle too long (more than 3 inches), scissor bite or even bite are disqualifying faults. Muzzle should be no shorter than 1 ½”. Wry jaw is a disqualifying fault.

Eyes : Wide apart and of moderate size. Any color is acceptable. However, odd eyes (one dark, one blue or light) should be considered non preferred. Misshapen or bugged eyes are a serious fault. Lacking pigment around the eyes is undesirable. Crossed eyes or non-symmetrically shaped eyes are a disqualifying fault.

Nose : Broad with open nostrils (nares) with no sign of air restriction. The nose should not be pushed up between the eyes. From the stop to the end of the nose must be at least one and one half inches. The nose should be a solid color. Lacking pigment is a serious fault. A nose lacking all pigment is a disqualifying fault.

Neck : Short to medium in length and very muscular flowing into the shoulders and should not be set on the dog so it appears to stop at the shoulders.

Chest : Ribs should be well sprung (rounded) and the chest wide and deep.
Depth of chest should be at least to the elbows.
A hollow or narrow chest (slab sided) should be considered a serious fault.

Back : Males should appear square and balanced. Females should appear similar with consideration given for body length. Short with a very slight rise from the shoulders to a slight drop in the croup is preferred. A level back is acceptable as long as the tail does not come straight off the top of the back.

Shoulders : Shoulders should be well laid back with significant angulations to allow for good movement. Straight shoulders are a fault.

Legs : Forelegs should be straight and wide apart, neither bowing out nor turning in. There should be significant bone substance. Elbows should be relatively close to the body. Lacking bone and substance is very undesirable. Elbows that are loose or “fiddle fronts” are a disqualifying fault. “East / West” forelegs are a serious fault.

Rear legs should exhibit significant bend of stifle so to allow for good movement.
They should be well muscled. Straight or “posty” rear legs are a serious fault.
Cow hocks are a disqualifying fault.

Movement : Dogs should have a balanced gait that drives off the rear and is complimented by reach allowing the dog to cover ground with a sense of power.
Dogs should single track. Pacing or crabbing is a serious fault.

Feet : Round, tight both front and rear, and the pasterns should be strong.
Weak pasterns and/or splayed feet aredisqualifying faults.

Height : Males - 18 to 20 inches at the shoulder. Females - 17 to 19 inches at the shoulder.

Weight : Between 50 to 70 lbs. for females and 65 to 85 lbs. for males. Although height and weight above the standard is to be discouraged, there is no penalty as
long as the dog is well proportioned, otherwise correct and balanced.

Color : Any color are acceptable with no preference for one over another.

Coat : The coat is short. A wavy coat or a long coat is a disqualifying fault and should not be registered. There should be no signs of feathering on the legs, ears or neck area, this is a disqualifying fault and should not be registered. OEBS with any sign of long or wavy coats are NOT to be registered.

*** Any breeder that registers long coated OEBS or their descendants are doing so fraudulently and against the IOEBA'S policies. All OEBS registered fraudulently will have their registration revoked as the IOEBA becomes aware of said registration.

Tail : A pump handle tail that naturally reaches the hock is preferred, screwed short
or a docked tails are acceptable. The pump handle tail should be carried low and not over the back of the dog.

Temperament : Disposition should be outgoing and happy. While a watchful nature may be expected at home, human aggression without provocation is a disqualifying fault.

Here is a brief hostory of the Olde English Bulldogge Breed from the IOEBA website.

The Olde English Bulldogge originated in England between 1600 and 1700. These were the early ancestors to many of the Bull breeds that exist today including the English Bulldog and the American Bulldog.

They were bred to participate in blood sports like bull baiting. This so called sport, became quite popular in England through out the middle of the 18th Century. Bull baiting primarily consisted of staking out a bull and allowing several Bulldogges to attack it.

A dog of great courage and agility was needed for bull baiting. This dog was of medium size; larger dogs were considered to be the result of mastiff crosses.

Around 1835, laws were passed in England prohibiting bull baiting and the Olde English Bulldogges main purpose of existence vanished. Within a decade the numbers of bulldogs declined drastically almost to extinction.

Dog show fanciers eventually decided to reconstruct the breed, but wanted to tone down the aggressive temperament of the original Olde English Bulldogge. They crossed the remnants of the existing stock with other breeds and over the years that followed they developed the modern English Bulldog. Unfortunately though, this modern dog is wrought with all kinds of genetic health problems.

The modern Olde English Bulldogge is a reconstruction of the original Olde Bulldogge of the 17th and 18th century. Various genetic crosses have been used in carefully and thoughtfully planned breeding programs to obtain this goal.

The foundation of most of today's Olde English Bulldogges can be traced to English Bulldog, American Bulldog, APBT and Mastiff.

These various dog breeds were used very selectively in various combinations to obtain the desired physical traits of the original Olde English Bulldogge.

The result has been a good looking Bulldogge of great athletic ability that is much healthier and physically fit without most or all of the problems that plague many of today's modern English Bulldogs.

The goal of all Olde English Bulldogge breeders should be to produce genetically healthier Bulldogges that are free breathers, free breeders, and free whelpers.

The IOEBA's detailed Olde English Bulldogge breed standard is the best guide as to what the perfect Olde English Bulldogge should look like and act like according to the International Olde English Bulldogge Association, the largest and most recognized registry for the breed.

Its recommended that the International Olde English Bulldogge Association's breed standard be used by today's Olde English Bulldogge breeders in an effort to maintain the high standards that the breeders of the past and the International Olde English Bulldogge Association have set fourth to continue to improve and preserve today's Olde English Bulldogge for future generations.

Pictures from the second litter, born August 13, 2019. 3 boys and 1 girl and Athen is feeding them and being an awesome, very protective mother. She loves her little ones for sure.

15/08/2019

More pictures from the first litter. Unfortunately we had trouble with this litter. Due to meds that mom was given, she ended up not being able to feed the babies and my baby, Gidget ended up bottle feeding them. She got up every 2 hours to feed the little guys and she did a fantastic job. Unfortunately the breed can easily get milk in their lungs when bottle feeding. Because of that, we ended up loosing little Hercules. :-(

Here are some pictures of one of the puppies from the first litter, born August 2, 2018. The God Apollo, aka Mr. Pickles for his new Mom, Carol Falck.
