Our bulldog arrived back in California perfectly suited to our Los Angeles lifestyle - confident, breathing beautifully, and exactly as they described through their detailed assessment. The trip we made to their home revealed a professional operation focused on functional bulldogs. What really impressed us was their ongoing support months later, with Declan and Ellie clearly being part of a family operation that genuinely cares about each bulldog's lifelong welfare.

Jan C.
In love with my Bruiser Bulldog We couldn't be more thrilled with our Bruiser Bulldog, Duke! Living in Los Angeles, we were initially concerned about finding a reputable breeder so far away, but after months of research, we knew Bruiser Bulldogs was the right choice. Erica arranged for their flight nanny to personally deliver Duke to us at LAX, and the entire process was seamless. Duke arrived happy, healthy, and already showing signs of the excellent socialization he received in their Indiana home. He's now 6 months old and has no trouble with our warm California weather - he breathes freely and loves our evening walks in Griffith Park. The ongoing support from Erica and Mitch has been invaluable. When we're ready for Duke's sibling, we won't hesitate to have another Bruiser Bulldog delivered to Los Angeles!
Ellen S.
Love our Bruiser Bulldog! After losing our previous bulldog to health complications, we spent over a year researching breeders who prioritize health above all else. That search led us from San Francisco to Bruiser Bulldogs in Indiana. We opted to fly out and pick up our boy, Winston, in person. Meeting Erica and Mitch at their home and seeing their breeding program firsthand gave us complete confidence in our decision. Winston is now 2 years old and thrives in the Bay Area climate - he can actually run and play without the breathing problems that plague so many bulldogs! Our vet here in San Francisco constantly comments on how healthy and well-built Winston is. The trip to Indiana was absolutely worth it for such a healthy, happy companion.

Sending Love From Cali Living in Fresno, we were worried about finding a bulldog that could handle our hot summers. After extensive research, we discovered Bruiser Bulldogs and their focus on breeding bulldogs that can actually breathe properly. We made the decision to fly to Indiana and drive back with our new puppy, Tank. The visit to their home was eye-opening - seeing their adult bulldogs running and playing without any breathing distress was exactly what we hoped to find. Tank is now 18 months old and does remarkably well even in our 100+ degree summer days (with proper precautions, of course). The road trip back to California with baby Tank was unforgettable, and the ongoing support from Erica has been incredible. Best decision we ever made!
Gerry G.
Gerry G. From Oakland, CA We made the trip from Oakland to Wawaka, Indiana last spring to pick up our Daisy, and it was absolutely the right decision. Touring the Wysong family home and seeing how the puppies are raised in a loving family environment - not a kennel - confirmed everything we'd read in their reviews. Daisy was already so well-socialized and confident when we met her. The drive back to California gave us quality bonding time, and she handled the journey like a champ. Now at 14 months old, Daisy is thriving here in the Bay Area. She has none of the health issues we worried about with English Bulldogs - she breathes easily, runs at the dog park, and even hikes with us in the Oakland Hills. Bruiser Bulldogs truly delivers on their promise of healthy, happy bulldogs!
Cici A.
In love! Our Bruiser Bulldog journey started when we saw the most beautiful, athletic bulldog at our local dog park. When we asked where he came from, the owner enthusiastically told us about Bruiser Bulldogs in Indiana. We reached out to Erica and were impressed by her knowledge and genuine care for her dogs. We decided to have our puppy, Brutus, flown out to us in Long Beach with their flight nanny service. The communication throughout was excellent, and Brutus arrived happy and healthy. It's been 10 months now, and he's exceeded all our expectations - he's social, playful, and most importantly, healthy! Our vet is always impressed by his clear airways and athletic build. We're already planning to get him a sister from Bruiser Bulldogs next year!

Love our pup Finding Bruiser Bulldogs was a blessing for our family here in San Jose. After researching numerous breeders, their commitment to health and ethical breeding practices stood out. We chose to have our puppy, Max, delivered to our home in San Jose, and the experience was flawless. The delivery driver was kind and professional, arriving right on schedule with our healthy, happy puppy. Max had been so well cared for during his journey from Indiana. What really sets Bruiser Bulldogs apart is their continued support - Erica is always available for questions and genuinely cares about how Max is doing. He's now 7 months old, full of personality, and remarkably healthy. Our Silicon Valley vet says he's one of the healthiest bulldogs she's seen. We couldn't be happier with our Bruiser Bulldog!

San Diego Review My husband and I drove from San Diego to Wawaka, Indiana to pick up our sweet girl, Bella (formerly Buttercup). It was a 30-hour drive each way, but visiting the Wysong family home and seeing firsthand how lovingly they raise their puppies made every mile worth it. Their property is beautiful, and you can immediately see the care and attention each puppy receives. Bella has been with us for 4 months now and she's absolutely perfect - healthy, energetic, and so well-socialized. She has never had any breathing issues despite being active in the heat. Bruiser Bulldogs has exceeded all our expectations!

Adoption Process for Our Minnesota Adopters
Through years of experience we have developed a tried and true adoption process devoted to matching the correct puppy with their adopter family. We are strong advocates of thoroughly understanding the adopter family dynamic and preferences and guiding each family in the selection process. Successful adoptions are never accidents and ensuring the bulldog puppy and their family are compatible matches is essential.
Steps of Our Adoption Process
1. First Email and Then Verbal Interview– Adoption questionnaires have long been the typical method for dog breeders when reviewing potential adopters, though we’ve observed their boundaries through years of experience. Most candidates, regardless of their genuine suitability, can easily provide the “right” responses on paper. Real evaluation demands a more tailored approach that surpasses what any rigid questionnaire can accomplish. This is why, as responsible English Bulldog breeders, we concentrate on authentic conversations over the phone with our potential families. During our chat, we’ll investigate areas such as your everyday routine, home environment, previous pet history, and your aspirations for a pet to determine whether one of our Bruiser Bulldogs would excel in your home.
2. Deposit – We require a non-refundable $500 deposit to join our wait list for the next English Bulldog puppy available.
3. Choosing your English Bulldog Puppy – When an adopter reaches the top of our wait list, we initiate the puppy selection process. Before making any decisions, we’ll provide photos of all available English Bulldog puppies along with detailed phone discussions about each pup’s unique temperament and characteristics (our personality assessment process is outlined below). We’ll walk you through every candidate’s individual personality, preferences, and distinguishing qualities, helping you evaluate how they might fit your household dynamics. We remain dedicated to offering professional insights and guidance throughout this meaningful selection process.
*English Bulldog Puppy Personality Assessment – Perfect puppy-family partnerships begin with a thorough understanding of each bulldog’s individual temperament and behavioral tendencies. We invest time in personality evaluation, observing each puppy’s natural behaviors, social responses, and characteristic patterns. This comprehensive evaluation process cannot be rushed and requires puppies to reach 4-5 weeks of age before we can accurately assess their distinct personalities. While some adopters prefer to select their puppy as early as 2 weeks old, we respectfully decline these requests. Early selection without proper temperament evaluation is counterproductive and can lead to mismatched pairings, as adopters would be choosing their English Bulldog companion without understanding their future pet’s true nature and needs.
4. Puppy Prep – Following the successful pairing of an adopter to one of our English Bulldog puppies, we begin our thorough puppy prep and training. Each adopter is provided with extensive training support and preparation materials specifically developed to help your bulldog adapt to Minnesota’s unique climate challenges. For our Minnesota adopters, we offer flexible arrangement options including our puppy delivery service, where a member of our family will bring your new pup directly to your home. Other adopters prefer to visit our home for pickup. While we love to see our bulldog adopters in person, we also understand hectic schedules and are able to discuss the best fit through a phone call. Whether connecting in person or through detailed planning over the phone, we ensure you will feel supported and confident throughout your new bulldog journey.
