   Like the Olde English Bulldogge the English Bantam Bulldogge (now know as just Bantam Bulldogges) is a designed recreation of a Bulldog of Olde.  In the 1800s there was a smaller sized Bulldog often referred to as a "Toy Bulldog". 

This Bantam sized Bulldog it is believed went into the development of the Boston Terrier and the French Bulldog that we have today.

During the early 1970's breeders began to develop a bulldog that possessed a smaller compact stature yet maintained the traditional "bully" characteristics and temperament qualities while breeding away from the health issues that plagued many of the modern bulldog breeds.

In approx 2004 this rare smaller Bulldog breed was presented to the United Canine Association for acceptance and possible registration and was accepted.  

The United Canine Association created the first official breed standard and named this rare breed the English Bantam Bulldogge then in 2011 the UCA dropped the word "English" and now recognizes the bred officially as the Bantam Bulldogge. 

The Bantam Bulldogge has since been officially recognized and accepted for registration and the conformation show ring with the International Olde English Bulldogge Association (IOEBA) as well.

   Bantam Bulldogges are appreciated and praised for their compact solid stature, low body weight (between 20 to 40 pounds), improved health characteristics over the traditional English Bulldog and other small bully breeds.  This breed should whelp natural (no c-sections) and males should be able to breed natural (no A.I.).

  The Bantam Bulldogge is extremely rare due to the fact that unlike many of today's "Mini Bulldogs" found on the internet and elsewhere that are often based on unhealthy weak runts or genetically inferior foundation breeding stock the Bantam Bulldogge has been carefully, thoughtfully and selectively bred thru years of dedication and stringent breeding practices to develop and set the breed's type while maintaining it's smaller physique.  Only healthy exceptional examples of the original foundation bully breeds were used in the primary development of the Bantam Bulldogge breed.

Many of the so called "Mini Bulldogs" foundations found on the net are often bred around underdeveloped or stunted English Bulldogs in an effort to produce and  attempt to maintain a smaller size.  Often the so called "Mini Bulldogs" do not reproduce their smaller size due to the fact that the smaller foundation dogs have larger dogs in their pedigrees and often reproduce what is in their genetic make up, which are normal sized Bulldogs.

  Our Bantam Bulldogge pups are active, healthy and outgoing.  Bantam Bulldogges are well known for their rambunctious out going personalities.
