Elizabeth Kraus &’s experience

  • About Elizabeth Kraus &

    We began breeding American Bulldogs in 2001 and established a boarding and training facility in 2008. We had a lot of fun and success in training show-quality American Bulldogs, but in 2016 we decided to make the switch to French Bulldogs. We loved the affectionate, smart, stubborn yet clown-like nature of Frenchies and now dedicate all our time to raising these beautiful dogs!

  • What makes Elizabeth Kraus &’s program special

    We take the health of our dogs very seriously. We conduct seven OFA tests, eye tests, and genetic testing on our breeding dogs. Every puppy comes with a 3yr guarantee, but we offer a lifetime health guarantee also. We take great pride in raising our puppies to be happy, healthy, well socialized, and litter box trained prior to going to new homes. We offer lifetime breeder support and mentoring.
