Submitted by Conrad13 on August 29, 2015 - 1:08pmhey guys I was wondering how you would go about finding a female so we can breed our male dog. He is AKC registered. Any ideas?

The consideration to breed should have started before you
purchased your male. First step is to be sure your breeder is a reputable breeder that breeds to the standard in temperament, health and conformation. AKC registration does not guarantee any of the above. I have seen plenty of AKC registered Bulldogs that look more likes mixes then Bulldogs. Doesn't make them any less precious but certainly not ones that should be bred.
Breeding Bulldogs is not an easy task. They are not typically bred naturally and they birth by C-section. It is not for the novice and definitely you should have a mentor to help with the decision making.
Go to the BCA website, they list shows. Maybe you can find someone there that will evaluate your male and help/discuss any questions you have.

I agree with Lynn, very much.
I'm certainly not trying to sound unkind or judgemental, but don't breed just to breed. Find a mentor that is a well respected breeder, let them evaluate your dog and see if they think he is stud quality. If he is, they will help you find what you need.
