Default Anyone on here breed British Bulldogs?

I've been looking at getting a British Bulldog for a while now and never thought of asking on here! I could just go buy one tomorrow but it's not always as straight forward as that! i.e Price, temperement, health issues etc.
Like i said, i know where i can get one, just wondering if anyone here breeds.

i dont breed them but i work in kennels and we have them in. they are one of the most beautiful dogs i know off, and very layed back. you can pay upto £2000 for one, they aren't cheap. health issues...you have to put vaseline in the face creases daily, they have trouble breathing, if there jaws are to over shot they can have trouble eating, hip problems. ill try find a good site for you now.

you can get them cheaper, ive seen them for as little as £500 but you do need to be careful. they can have a lot of problems like any pedigrees

Too true! I have seen one or two trying to pull the wool over my eyes lol.
Either OBVIOUS health issues, or 'paper' issues. And even some outrageous crosses! lol.
