Our Story

Nicole and Paul live in Tacoma, Washington with our beautiful children and fur babies.  Nicole was heavily involved with Great Danes for over 20 years, but Paul always wanted a Bulldog.  So...finally she caved and added Meatloaf (pictured above) to the family.  Unfortunately, Meatloaf passed away at only 14 months after surgery complications, but this is how we met the Gossers.

​

The family was devastated after Meatloaf's passing but Cheryl Knapp offered a puppy from a co-breeding with Kim Gosser, our Rou!  Nicole watched various videos of an older litter the Gossers had and ended up buying Razzle.  Razzle was supposed to only be a pet, but watching her grow and develop led Nicole to believe she may be show-quality.  After getting her evaluated by some very experienced breeders at a Bulldog event, it was decided that we would try her in the show ring along with Rou.  

​

Watching mom be so active with showing our dogs, our son, Asiniy, began to express interest.  Nicole dragged him to weekly handling classes for a few weeks to ensure his interest remained, and then had him practice with Rou while she got Razzle ready.  Sticking with it, Asiniy has become quite the accomplished Junior Handler - even showing in the regular conformation ring!  We love that it's a family passion and look forward to more of our children getting active.

​

If you have any questions or want additional information, please feel free to email or connect with Nicole on social media.  We look forward to hearing from you!
