Website Crash
Well the genius website designer made one little error and had to go back 6 months! So please excuse the outdated info and lack of links/slideshows etc while I put it all back!

Wonderful News
I have purchased a blue brindle BBD from the USA. He is arriving in April 2012. He will be 10 months old and ready to mate.
His father and grandfather are straight blues so looking forward to getting some Australian blue Bulldogs.
I am also looking forward to mating his blue to livernoses (chocolates) and get lilacs......hmmm nice :-)

I am breeding all the rare colours and am looking to take it beyond others. Not only this.......my dogs have fantastic natures and health and I have the choices with 7 males to make the best matings.

New Breed Club
As of the 1/6/2010 The Australian Bulldogs Kennel Club has officially opened. The club is small but with high hopes for a select number of breeders breeding the best quality dogs! I am looking forward to people coming over in the coming years and having a great club with lots of resources for the breeders, puppy buyers and enthusiasts.

Woo Hoo more pups
Tia had 4 pups 3 surviving on 17/9/2011. One massive white boy is still available and I am waiting to see f he is a platininum livernose......that is pure white with livernose, pads and eyeliner.

Lots of litters coming.
Well there is one litter just arrived and 4 more due at the start of November.
Tia and Duke have 3 wonderful pups with a white massive male available still.
Dolly has been mated to Ox. Obviously I want fawn puppies and add Ox's livernose and his silver fawn lines and that Dolly always has lovely pups....mmmmmm! :-)
Pema has been mated to Chainsaw.....Pema is a livernose carrier as well as both her and Duke having a fawn parent....plus Pemas' silver fawn brindle, once again chasng the colours with 2 stunning dogs.
Isabelle and Duke have been mated to Duke. This is the same mating that gave me Ox the fawn liversose and Bonnie the red brindle lvernose. Hoping for similar results.
Ruby has been mated to Ox. Last time around Ruby gave me the most stunning litter to Ox's father Duke, 7 pups, 6 livernoses, straight red, red brindle and red/white pied livernoses. Hoping for similar success using Ox's lovely colours and have 2 livernose parents.

Latest additions and updates.
It is hard to put ages of dogs up as they always change! I have lots of them as you can tell and plan to keep a few of the ones I breed (females) to make it to 15 in total. Stay tuned for pictures as the young ones grow and to see the special new ones added to Victoria's best breed program.

We are a group of owners and breeders from Bacchus Marsh outside of Melbourne to Maryborough in central Victoria. Driven by the market we are now specialising in rare colours. We have bred fawn livernoses(chocolates), full red and red brindle livernoses as well as straight fawns and silver fawn brindles. With the arrival of Waverly next year a blue brindle BBD we hope to get blue fawn brindles, blue tri's, never before lilacs and blue brindle Australian Bulldogs. We are proud to do this without using Dogue De Bordeaux, Neoplolitan Mastiff and American Bulldogs which another club is doing. We firmly believe that consistency has been a long hard battle and using these dogs takes us 10 years backwards and we wouldnt want to buy these pups. Using a British Bulldog will increase the % intitially but all pups sold will have to be mated to lower percentage females and this will be be done by a contract and pups are only to be registered with the ABKC to ensure the original design and percentage is adhered to. We firmly believe in a healthier fitter more agile bulldog for Australia and will make sure this is what happens. I already see one clubs dogs creeping up into the 90 % range.......well good luck buyng the problems from these poor mans British Bulldog Breeders. We are proud of the Australian Bulldog and it's health, look and temperament. Once you have an Australian Bulldog you will never own another breed and no dog will get into your heart like a Bulldog. One thing that is great about them is they prefer to be around home rather than leave the property, a great relief and credit to their natures. We register through the Australian Bulldog Kennel Club and are proud members actively advancing the breed generations to get recognition for this wonderful special breed! We are also dedicated to breeding healthier dogs and improving each generation to fit perfectly within ABKC Breed Standards. Have a look at the countryside pictures - Here are a few of the services available.

about our dogs
Hardefeldt: A thickset muscular Australian Bulldog. His head is broad with plenty of wrinkles and a medium nose with a large roll on top. He has thick set legs and huge paws. Hardefeldt has a crank tail and wonderful red colouring with white flashes. His bloodlines come from Maple-lee and Cox Australian Bulldogs and is loaded with wonderful dogs in both sides! He will be available for stud from September 2009. He has wonderful potential with all types of matings as he will pull large dogs sizes down as he will lift smaller dogs up. He will go well with bulldoggy types and help in making Australian Bulldog types as well as making longer nosed dogs more bulldoggy! He will throw broader muscular dogs as progeny as well. He is 3rd generation Australian Bulldog and his % is 82.25

Elvis Elvis: Hardefeldts brother with all the same great bloodlines. An awesome looking red and white pied male with a crank tail. Elvis has a bulldoggy type head and would mate well with longer nosed females to give a more to type recognisable bulldog face. Being the product of a red and white/pied brindle mating Elvis would be great to go with a red/white pied female to increase the chances of like type puppies. He is 3rd generation Australian Bulldog and his % is 82.25

Isabelle: Dam to Hardefeldt, Elvis and Pearl (and Rocky). A beautiful and very intelligent well behaved dog. She has a very bulldoggy face and muscular build. She is 17" at the shoulders so fitting breed standards. A natural mating natural birthing dam, ideal to seek pups from that may have these same traits. Her first litter was 9 pups and 8 surviving. The whole litter is doing great with no health problems and all look fantastic. She is from the Cox lines and he was probably the biggest breeder of Australian Bulldogs in Victoria and her father was from the latter stages of his breeding program. In her last litter she had the greatest range of colours including, reds, brindles with white flashes, brindle/white pieds and red/white pieds as well as 50% crank and 50%long tails. She is 2nd generation and her % is 86.

Dolly Dolly: A classic little dog, what can I say?! She is as cheeky as, very clever and a real goer! Not fitting breed standards as in too short and too bulldoggy she is still an extremely popular dog in the Australian Bulldog world with many many fans, including me! She has British Bulldog breeders in awe as her quality is better than thier dogs! Very rare colouring as well. Her health is awesome with brilliant coat, eyes, ears, feet and skeletal condition! Mating her with Fred and Hardefeldt will overcome the short issues and hopefully produce Bulldoggy types that fit the Australian Bulldog breed standards. I really hope to mate her with a brindle male oneday and get fawn/brindle pups! And if I do you will need to pay me an awfull lot to get them from me!:-) She has a screw tail. She is my baby and I love her with all my heart. She is 2nd generation Australian Bulldog and 86.5%

Fred Fred: The top dog! He impresses all that see him and he is my boy! A sweet gentle dog that wouldn't hurt a fly! The puppy plays with him and he never loses his temper even though I wouldn't blame him if he did. He varies from 33kg to 35kg depending if the girls are on heat. He is awesomely built and has great muscle definition without being musclebound! He fits every breed standard I have ever read to the letter. He is a natural mater siring large litters. Fred is 3 years old, 2nd generation and 78.5%. He goes particularly well with bulldoggy headed types and pulls larger dogs sizes down and shorter up! Healthy coat, eyes and a breathing! He was a plainer type pup that turned into an awesome example of an Australian Bulldog!

Ruby Ruby: Ruby is my little star. A really great looking dog! She is a liver nose with a crank tail and is red/white pied in colour. She is 86.5% and first generation. She loves the water and swims for as long as I let her. She is very intelligent and knows her tricks and fits in so well. I must say I get the most compliments about her! She is fit and athletic. She has just had her first litter that was just fantastic with 7 pups. There were red, red brindle and red/white pied livernoses and all had crank tails. She has just been mated to Ox for her 2nd litter. She has become a really good dog and I always know where she is and she loves to please and be a good girl. She has a great time playing with the younger ones, so much so they are now bigger than her and it may be backfiring on her! :-)

Pearl Pearl: Pearl (Rosie) past away on the 6/1/2011 aged 20 months. She was a quiet and sweet natured girl and sometimes got taken advantage of by the more cunning ones but she had her own personality and she was a beautiful easy going girl. She had a wonderful tail wag and smile for me everytime I said her name or patted her....I miss her terribly! Another victim of the tiger snake. 5 were bitten and 3 have survived. Nearly one year on and I am still shattered and would give anything to have my girl back.

Dee Dee Dee Dee: Dee Dee has died on the 6/1/2011. Her and 4 others were bitten by a tiger snake at 7pm and 2 hours later she past away. I am absolutely heartbroken and so very sad to lose this great friend! She was always there with me and always loyal and affectionate. She got very deep into my heart and I am so sad how much she suffered and so sad she is not here with me now, where she loved to be. Dee was only 15 months and was carrying a big litter which would have been stunning. RIP my beautiful girl.

Dee Dee Duke: My fawn brindle boy! 85.85% and 2nd generation. Only one of 3 fawn brindles I know of and I have 2 of them. Looking forward to mating him to Dolly a straight fawn and seeing what comes. Duke was born4/10/09. An intelligent gentle natured boy. Brother to Pema. Duke will be available for stud from July 2010. He has sired 2 large litters already. Duke, Pema and Dolly all have probably my favourtie AB of all time in thier ancestry....Bronco! See his pictures here. Duke is fostered and I was wrapped to hear he has got into thier hearts like no other dog could. That he wants to hug and smooch him all the time! :-) I know the feeling!

Chainsaw: Chainsaw is a wonderful sweet intelligent boy....not to mention thickset and very impressive, 43 kg now!!! He is Dee Dees brother and the same third generation and 82.5%. Chainsaw is available for stud from July 2010. Chainsaw, Dee Dee, Fred, Pearl, Hardefeldt all come from original Jag lines...which were apparently good! He definately steals the show when visitors come! Chaisaw has just been mated to Pema for his first litter. Having Dolly as a mum and Pema having a fawn dad I am hoping for fawn puppies

Dakini Dakini: A new girl added to the crew. She is from Ruby and Duke and is 2nd generation and 86%. Dakini is a red livernose wth a crank tail and has livernose genes from fathers and mothers sides, so hopefully a strong trait. She is a great size and has a fantastc head and personality. Really looking forward to puting these livernoses with the blue of Waverly to get lilacs hopefully......but along the way there will be some amazng colours and combinations.

Creto Creto: Creto is Dakinis' brother, a red/white pied male with a crank tail. He is 2nd generation and 86%. Once again livernose from both father and mothers side so ideal for those wishing to mate to have livernose puppies. A beautiful puppy and I cant wait to watch him grow into a stunning man.

Bonnie Bonnie: Sister to Ox a beautiful red brindle livernose girl. Probably a red brindle tan livernose as she has no white on her head or body and just a small chest flash. She is 3rd generation and 86%. A lovely affectionate girl and so very loyal.
