| Thank you to all of you who have sent e mails and called us to express your feelings and to help us get threw the loss of our baby. Unfortunately we received one e mail with hate in it from Natalie Evens. This person use to work with us in our Dhomhnuill Style Bulldog breeding program and was one of the reason for the BBBA's demise. Natalie had dogs produced by me and used dogs produced by me I guess that is why she felt the need to personally attack us and our dogs when one of her litters produced a sick pup. Then this evil lady back peddled her way out of helping the owner of the pup that was put down at 9 months of age. No breed is perfect and most certainly no breeder is perfect but one MUST stand behind the dogs they produce. The following e mails are copies of the one she sent to us NOT 12 hours after Baby's death and the rest are of e mails regarding the sick pup along with photos of the effected dog. ALTHOUGH WE DID NOT BREED OR SELL THIS PERSON A DOG, ONCE WE HEARD WHAT NATALIE PUT HER THREW WE CONTACTED HER AND HAVE OFFERED TO GIVE HER A FREE VADER/SARAH PUP. BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT REAL BREEDERS DO! Any one who feels that any of this info is false may contact us for documentations and e mails PROVING other wise. WARNING MADAME BULLDOGS WARNING - "HOME TO THE FINEST CKC/AKC FRENCH BULLDOGS" Yet she has never had a litter of Frenchies!!!!! -"French Bulldogs is our #1 priority! We are a small hobby breeder from London, Ontario, Canada that only breeds French Bulldogs." "Bulldogs are our love not our living and raising these babies is our passion, not our business." Natalie is on to her 3 breed of dogs to sell people in under 5 years??? - "WE ALSO OFFER ARTIFICIAL INSEMINATION SERVICES." This is against the LAW!!!!! Natalie is being investigated for practicing Veterinarian medicine with out a licence by the OVC. A breeder can do this to there own dog all they want but they can not charge for these services with out a Vet licence. Natalie charges $300 for this service." (worse yet, if your dog can't then it should NOT!!!! IMO) Hi Chad, I received a call about the AI, I don’t recall getting an e-mail but here is my policy on AI’s. I like to do three, preferably on day 11, 12 and 14 if necessary. These numbered days are counting the very first day that blood from the heat appears. By the second week of the female’s heat, it’s usually not heavy and almost gone by the time breeding starts. If your female is standing and letting your male mount then that is the best indicator that she is ready. I am a small hobby breeder of French Bulldogs and I have a fairly good success rate with my own dogs, as they need AI’s as well. There is no guarantee of pregnancy, this is why vets usually don’t offer the service, although some do and it’s costly. I do three AI’s with my own sterilized equipment for 300.00, basically 100.00 per AI. I have a heated garage that I do it in although first I like both dogs to take some time and run and play…my own dogs won’t allow them to come in the house, I’m sure you understand. As long as your female has gotten a clean bill of health prior to breeding, I will help you. I will also want you vet’s name and number if that’s ok. If pregnancy does NOT’t result with the first three breedings, I will do a repeat breeding on the female’s next heat at no charge. If she still does not take after the second try then my accountability with the breeding of this pair is finished. Has she been bred to this particular male before? Is she English? Did she require a c-section on her last litter? Thanks Natalie -"We are currently only involved in the showing and occasional breeding of our French Bulldogs." Natalie has NEVER shown a single dog in a sanctioned CKC or AKC event! - We have a added a new French Bulldog female named Nina Sweet Pea to our program and we have high hopes for this little girl. She should produce some of the finest looking Frenchies in Canada. AKC and CKC registered, short back, very muscular, she is a very nice example of the breed and she comes from a long line of European champions. Natalie ONLY owns two French Bulldogs and one is kept off of the property. I do not think one can call that a breeding program. She also bashes European bred dogs on her contact us page?!?!?! The NASTY email that Natalie felt the need to send us only hours after Baby's death From: Shawn and Natalie <sevans@ody.ca> Subject: Shameful ! To: "'Trevor MacDonald'" <dhomhnuillbulldogs@yahoo.ca> You and Denise as experienced breeders of the Bulldog. I am astounded that you did not bother to take Baby in to the vet’s, knowing she was having difficulty birthing. If she had been carrying infection then your vet would have found and treated this during a pre-breeding exam. They cannot whelp naturally all of the time, this would have been prevented had you made a vet available to her. Poor Baby, all in the name of the next generation. You are no longer the caring Bulldog breeder that I met and knew years ago. I am ashamed at this latest outcome, when a labour is significantly more difficult or taking longer than what is normal, THEY NEED MEDICAL ATTENTION. A C- SECTION WOULD HAVE SAVED HER LIFE !! Our response: What did I do?Tuesday, January 26, 2010 10:06 PM From: "Trevor MacDonald" <dhomhnuillbulldogs@yahoo.ca> To: "Shawn and Natalie" <sevans@ody.ca> What are you talking about? I 'm not sure what info you are basing this on but you do not know the circumstances of her labour. The infection was not the cause of her death rather the cause of the difficulties that I nor the Vet were aware of and was not related to her previous litter. Baby was checked be for her breeding and all was fine we even had ocitocin on hand from our Vet if Baby was slow to push like last time. We did not use it. My self, Denise and even Or'Ryn all took part in midwifing for baby who started panting at around 8:00am Sunday. We got a still born pup at around 10-10:30 followed by 3 more pups and a still born at rather regular intervals over the next 4 or so hours. Baby was fine! She was getting up to drink and go to the bathroom and showed NO signs of distress!!!! Then Bang she went down and she went hard she fainted then had a seizure very frightening! By the time we called emergency and got the go ahead to bring her in it was to late she was not breathing. I am sorry for this and sorry that you feel this way now that you have the facts maybe you wont be so harsh or better yet have a different opinion. Take care hope to hear from you Trev Following this incident Natalie began to attack the remaining breeders that work under me using false e mails and YES we saved them all!!!!! |
