Our French Bulldogs...
Couch space can be at a premium at our house!
Our parent dogs are all registered AKC, however some of our dogs are also domestically registered ACA & APRI, as well as internationally registered with RKF and FCI. Any potential breeding dog is screened for any health concerns prior to breeding by our veterinarian.
All puppies acquired from us include AKC papers, which we pay for and arrange on your behalf. You have the option to register with the other registries, if you so choose. We primarily offer our puppies as companions & pets. Meet Roswell...
SFLK Platinum Ice AKA "Roswell" or "Roz" is an exciting addition to our program. His sire "Pablito" has made a HUGE impact on the Frenchie world with his structure, temperament and amazing color. We're excited to add this bloodline into our program. He's produced two exceptional litters already and we couldn't be happier. As a bonus he is health tested 5 panel clear.
Roswell has the best personality, always happy and eager to please. He is a total foodie and thinks he is starving most of the time. He also loves water and can be found dipping into the doggie wading pool or any body of water. His nick name is also Otter for that reason. Why was he named Roswell? Well, as a small pup the family insisted he looked like a tiny alien. The name stuck. Meet Guinness...
OOH La La Got Me A Guinness was our gift from Senka. He is a son of our Bolt, as well. As soon as he was born, I knew he was not going anywhere, even though we really didn't need another male. Guinness has the best personality. He is vocal, funny and very playful. He makes whimsical sucking and clicking sounds like he is trying to speak. He loves nothing more than to hang out and join in whatever happens to be going on, I have caught him riding on the tractor with my husband mowing the property together.
Guinness is SOLID at 35 lbs and easily one of the most athletic Frenchies we've had. He has a slightly longer muzzle, which I prefer, and he has never experienced any breathing or overheating issues, no matter how hard he plays. His favorite game is running with a giant beach ball and bumping it into the air with his nose or thrashing it until it pops. He will jump up and gently grab your hand with his mouth when you walk by to get your attention. Meet Zoso
Cukibukis Leona Nina
Zoso should remain on the small side. She has a nice short, cobby body, a blue pied coat with no brindling and light eyes. We're looking forward to seeing what she can produce in the future. Meet Ziggy...
Ziggy with her sire Bolton. You can see she's up to something!
Ziggy is a daughter of Zoso and Bolt we held back for our breeding program. She has a funny personality and has an annoying habit of being on top of things, rather than on the ground where she belongs. She is also notorious for chasing our cat - which oddly enough is marked identical to her - though she ALWAYS gets in trouble for it. We're hoping this is a phase... But, she's athletic, affectionate and incredibly goofy.
She will paw your hand to get attention and will climb up into your lap to be held in a hug with her paws over your shoulders for as long as you're willing. We plan on breeding Ziggy to Galileo at the beginning of 2020.
Meet Booger...
Booger is a daughter of Sochi and Bolton we held back for our program. She is super short, compact and thick. Her dam is sired by a prestigious Russian conformation champion and her sire is from the renowned Lamorena Del Kennel in Hungary. She is a half-niece to our beloved Mischa who passed in 2015.
Booger is a drama queen and will give a shrill cry, often referred to as a "Frenchie Scream" if you do anything that displeases her (like clean her ears or tail pocket). But she is incredibly loving and sweet. She loves food and will readily steal it from anyone. She once jumped up on our coffee table and ran off with my husbands baked potato which was nearly the same size as she. We have a planned line-breeding with Max on her next heat cycle, likely the beginning of 2020
Meet Smoko and Misu...
Smoko and Misu are littermates we imported at the end of 2018 from our friends at Cukibuki Kennels in Serbia. The girls are sired by "Racer" originally from Lithuania but now resides in Australia. Racer is a Lilac. Their dam is Cukibuki's Cookies N' Cream who is not only a pointed show dog but also the half-sister to our beloved Senka. This was Cookies final litter, so we feel especially grateful for being allowed to acquire both these girls.
Misu is incredibly loving and wants to please, while Smoko is a little trouble maker - but, then immediately regrets her indiscretions and crawls over to you on her belly to beg forgiveness. Misu was named for my favorite dessert: Tiramisu, because of her coloring, layering of wrinkles and how sweet she is. Smoko was named in Australian-slang for a "smoke-break", since she's naughty with smokey colored points. Her body color is almost pearlescent and just beautiful. Both girls are athletic and very bonded to one-another, you can usually find them playing together and harassing the rest of the pack with their shenanigans. We plan on breeding these girls on their next heat, likely at the beginning of 2020 to Guinness. Meet Boudica...
At 8 months, her favorite place on top of my desk in the middle of all the work.
Our Retirees...
Vlad at 10+ years spends most of his time napping. My daughter thinks he looks like a Lorax, now with his gray face.
Meet "Vlad"...
Vladamir The Impaler
The dog where it all started. Love at first sight. Once I picked him up as a puppy we were hooked! He's the kind of dog that will leave a bowl of food to spend time with you. He adores people and is everyone's best friend. He spends a good part of his day sitting behind me as lumbar support in my office chair as I work. He's traveled across country on road trips and behaved perfectly in hotels! Whoever meets him becomes an instant fan of "The Vlad" Vlad is AKC, ACA & APRI Registered... Meet Luna...
"BD Raising A Rukus"
aka "Luna" or "Lu Lu Bug"
Luna is a character and is known as the family's "micro manager" she's always checking up on what everyone is doing and getting right in the middle of it. She's a small and compact Frenchie, so her favorite place is either in your lap or going around town in her "purse". She feels that walking on a leash is beneath her after 5 minutes. Luna is incredibly affectionate and is the first one to greet you at the door - and scold you for leaving her behind! "Luna" is AKC, ACA & APRI Registered. Download "Luna's" Pedigree here Meet "Galileo"Ooh La La Star Struck
Galileo has been known to jump in the bathtub or shower with our older daughter - we have no idea why he thinks this is fun. He also doesn't lay anywhere - he lounges, like he owns the place! Galileo is AKC Registered Galileo is both a natural breeder and can be collected. He is available for stud on select females. Contact us for terms and availability. 
Galileo as "Rufus" (in the Center being held) with the entire cast of Legally Blonde. 2016 Fall at St. Andrews Upper School in Austin.
Meet Chici Lici...
Cukibukis Lollipop
We were so pleased with Senka and the litter she produced for us by Galileo that we went ahead and imported another lovely Sable female from our friends at Cukibuki Kennels in Serbia. Though they are not related in anyway, both Chici Lici and Senka carry the AyAt (wild sable/fawn and black & tan gene) Cici Lici is vivacious, hilarious and incredibly loving. She loves nothing more than to play and lick you! She is a big fan of riding in the dog stroller and going to the local Farmer's Market. Chici is incredibly muscular that we jokingly call her "The Muscles from Brussels" even though she's not from Belgium, it still just seemed appropriate. Chici's mother and father exhibit great conformation and incredible color. Her mother "Whicky" is an incredibly dark sable and her father "Marley" is a solid black/tan with amazing structure. We've not been disappointed with the puppies she's produced for us. 
Rainbow Eiffel Tower/Bridge...When a Lifetime is Never Enough
No matter how long or how brief their time on Earth was, each and every OOH LA LA dog was a treasured, family member and added an incredible amount of richness to our lives. I couldn't bring myself to remove them from our site, so below is the section to honor their memory. Au revoir... Our Beloved BoltonWe lost Bolton far too soon to a freak accident on our property in late 2019. He made a huge impact on our breeding program and his spirit remains in the progeny we kept back from him: Booger, Guinness, Izzy and Ziggy. Bolt was an own son of the renowned Gustav Lamorena Del and was imported from Hungary. The Lamorena Kennel has made a huge impact on the Frenchie community and we were proud to be part of it. His sweet goofy, big ole head and soft kisses are sorely missed!
Our Beloved SenkaWe were incredibly saddened to lose Senka in late Summer of 2018. She had an endearing personality, easy going attitude and a master-snuggler. She was a family favorite and is sorely missed. The only silver lining is that we kept back a son of hers from her final litter born the day after Christmas in 2017.
 Senka (bottom right corner) with the cast of Legally Blonde at UT Austin in 2016. She played the role of "Rufus" and was such a big hit, she was asked back for future plays.
Cukibuki Isn't She Something
Senka was incredibly smart, probably one of the smartest dogs we've owned. She was so funny to be around and would run out into the yard and do a baby bear cub tumble from a dead run, just for the sheer joy of it. She also LOVED ice cubes. You couldn't open our freezer without getting an ice cube for her, too. She was also known for stealing any bottled drinks the moment you set them down. She would grab a bottled water, beer - anything she could get her mouth around and start a game of keep-away with it. Senka's father was imported to Serbia from Lithuania, and is not only an extremely rare black and tan pied of exceptional structure and quality, but he is also a blue carrier. Senka's dam is a wild sable fawn, who is also a blue carrier. We were extremely excited to have been able to add these great genetics to our program. Her legacy lives on in her son Galileo and her nieces Smoko and Misu. We lost Shiner unexpectedly in June of 2019, she is sorely missed. Her ashes and paw print remain in Katryna's room on the shelf above her bed.
Our Silly and Sassy Shiner...
"She's A Knockout"
She adored wrestling with the other dogs and was the first to let us know if someone has come for a visit. Though Shiner's favorite person was our younger daughter Katryna whom she played (okay "observed" due to her lack of opposable thumbs) computer games and slept with on most nights....no kidding, this dog can sleep for 12 hours! My favorite memory of Shiner was waking her and Katryna up for school. Katryna had left her homework and binder paper on the bed and Shiner had fallen asleep (and drooled) on top of the binder paper which, when she awoke was glued to the side of her head. Shiner did not develop as we had hoped structurally so we have opted to not include her in our breeding program. Shiner was the families "goof ball" and was always up to some shenanigans. Once we caught her up IN a big tree going after her nemesis Mr. Squirrel. Our Loving Mischa...
"Raspisnaya Krasa"
Sadly we lost Mischa in Spring of 2016 to an unforeseen rare heart defect that didn't manifest until after her second birthday. We were able to care for her until the end and because we loved her so much, she lived nearly a year longer than our vets and cardiologist expected her to. She will be dearly missed and rests in a place of honor on our property. Born in Russia to a prestigious show home, we were thrilled to have been allowed the privilege of acquiring and importing not only this beautiful, rare sable-colored, female, with an impeccable pedigree, but also her half brother (Max*) and half sister (Sochi*). Mischa is from a line of international champions. Both her sire and dam, grand sire and grand dam and beyond hold conformation titles - not only in Russia but also in other European countries. Mischa has an incredibly expressive face and the sweetest disposition you'll ever meet. She's quite the snuggle-bug and took an immediate liking to my husband (okay he bribed her with some fresh lamb chops - the scoundrel). Mischa works very hard to get into his lap any chance she can. Our Golden Girl Solis...
Sadly, we lost Solis in early 2012. She was a wonderful dog, and a beloved companion to our younger daughter-Solis is sorely missed. She rests under our big oak tree in a place of honor.
"BD Peaches N Cream" aka "Solis", 25 lbs, Golden Cream, Female Solis is the sweetest chow hound you will ever meet. She's a bit overweight as she'll steal food from anyone or anything not paying attention. Though she's certainly driven by her stomach, she's incredibly mellow and adores her humans, our younger daughter especially (who likes to paint her toe nails pink). Solis can usually be found snoozing on the back porch in some sunny spot or reclining on a chaise lounge like a diva. In her opinion, the best activity is lack of it... But Solis is always up for a quick wrestle with Vlad, then it's back to napping and dreaming of eclairs! AKC, ACA & APRI Registered Download "Solis'" pedigree here |
