Bulldog Puppies
This is my second complaint about Millbrook Kennels. BUYER BEWARE !!! Their website was down for a while but it's back up again so I had to post another comment. I purchased a bulldog from Millbrook Kennels and in 2008 and in 2009 my beloved "Bubba" died. He starting having seizures on a Thursday. We took him to the hospital that night, and were supposed to take him to a neurologist on Monday and he passed at the hospital Sunday night. He never regained consciousness. We had him for 14 months. In that time he spend at least every other month at the vet or in the hospital. I don't have enough space to write down all the medical problems he had. I still have his vet and hospital file which is in excess of $10, 000.00. Cronic Pneumonia, Breathing Treatments (Yes I have central air in the home), internal bleeding, infections, severe allergies... and on and on. Olga and her bad breeding left my family HEART BROKEN !!! We loved Bubba like our own kids and he didn't deserve to go through such a painful short life. We loved him soooo much and miss him terribly. Millbrook Kennels just wants your money. I write this so other first time bulldog owners don't have to go through what my family did. This time I went through the BCA.org website and asked for a reputable breeder in my area. MAKE SURE YOU MEET THE PARENTS !!! A good breeder will also give you their Vet's name, current owners contact info, and their blood lines. Millbrook Kennels gave me none of that. Olga didn't have the mother their and that should have been my first tip-off. I have been told the dogs may have been in-breed and also that she gets her dogs from Vermont and also imports them from other countries. Don't be afraid to ask a breeder questions. A reputable one will have nothing to hide and will be happy to answer them all !!!

Bulldog Issues
To: Maya's Parents: I read your post and just had to respond. I also bought a bulldog from Olga at Millbrook Kennels and purchased in May 2009. My bulldog Bubba turned 1 on February 25th, so I'm wondering if I have Maya's brother! Please let me know, I'd love to hear from you. This is my first bulldog so I don't have any other breeders to compare Millbrook Kennels to, but I would like to comment on a couple things. First of all, it didn't seem like a kennel at all. We went into her back yard and about 10 dogs came running out of her house. There were feces everywhere. On the dogs and ALL OVER THE YARD ! In turn, me, my husband, and my two sons all had feces on us when we left. She just laughed. It was very unsanitary. Secondly, she told us Bubba had a "Little Virus" and handed us a white powder medicine in an Advil bottle. I didn't give it to him, instead asking the vet when I took him for his New Puppy Check-Up. The vet said she didn't know what the white powder was, but if the bottle had any traces of Advil in it, it would have been deadly to Bubba. I had two red flags that day, unsanitary conditions for the dogs and that he was sick. My gut told me to walk away, but we had our son's with us and we just all fell in love with Bubba. I know bulldogs do have a lot of medical conditions, but I have a sickly bulldog and I can't help but think it's a breeding issue. Pooping out blood, peeing out blood, skin conditions, severe food allergies, and he has had Aspiration Pneumonia twice. Some breeders are just in it for the money and I don't think they understand how much pain it causes the families who get these unhealthy dogs. Money starts to become an issue and the poor dog is put through hell. Owners need to do their homework, but breeders also need to be upfront and honest with potential owners. It's a two-way street. Olga has a 20 day exchange clause for "debilitating genetic or congenital defects only". Who is going to do that? The puppy becomes part of your family the minute you take them home. We just love him and will do anything to make him better. BUYER BEWARE !!

English Bulldogs - Bad Breeder!
We purchased our English Bulldog, Maya in May of 2009. When we purchased her, we were told that there is no history of hip displaysia or knee problems. We just spent $1400 on Maya's first luxated patella surgery. Olga told us to wait on the problem (why, so she could tear her ACL), and that she would grow out of it. Olga overbreeds and then lies to people that buy the pups. It is horrible! When we tried to work with her about it, she said that she would only take the pup back. Why? So, she could put her down? Olga needs to STOP breeding English Bulldogs!
