Geez I got 200 per pup in vet bills time they are 7-8 weeks not including registering the litter. I wouldn't sell a bulldog for less than 750 or is waste my time. Where do u live? Are them Bulldogs registered if so what kinda stock? My AB cost me  2,000 b4 she was a year.


Dixie,

I guess since you've sold bulldog pups, yet the dog your referring to has never had a litter that you must have some other bulldogs on your yard.  What other blood you have running around?

My vet bill is right at 75 for a round of puppy shots. 
My female git sick at 9 months I sent 400 on tests trying to figure why she had scours. Turned out to be a UTI pissed me off they charged me like that I could've and should've just shot her a dose of penicillin.
She got hooked in the neck btwn the vest and collar once pretty nasty so I took her to the vet for that as well .

Thank you hitemhard

I was just making a personal opinion and didn't mean no harm. Sorry I'd it upset. I can tell you from experience, that raising a dog from a pup, after shots and time spent with them, I would never make money back on them if I sold them. I have alot of time vested in my dogs and to me once they break a year old, it's pointless for me to sell them because it would be throwing money away, and it's hard to make your money back on pups unless you got the bloodowns results from previous litters to back the breeding up, and that is hard to come by.

Ya 25$ a pup is about average for vet bill... 2 rounds of solojec7 by 8wks and wormed 4 times with puppy wormer... 20$ for enough wormer for a whole litter and 100$ for enough solojec7 to worm 2 litters with 2 rounds... It's like with anything else, if ur not gonna change ur own oil it's gonna cost alot more to have it done... If ur not gonna doctor ur own dogs gonna pay alot more at the vet. And I don't doubt it cost 200$ a pup at the vet...  do a whole litter Less than 100$ buy it from Jeffers... Some folks aren't comfortable doctoring their own animals so to each his own Smiley

Doctoring my dogs is fairly inexpensive... a bottle of cut heal and a bottle of 100 amoxillin capsules at 500 milligrams each for about 20 bucks from Mexico lasts a long time. That's enough medicine to doctor several dogs for a couple of years. Stitching is usually not needed but is done very reasonably.

Ya cut n heal is getting higher seems like but it's a good product, I use that alushield sometimes. It seems to b a pretty good product as well... Stitches bout 3 dollars,For enough to sew up about 12" of cut lol... Or tail hair from your horse works just as good . Doctoring horses and cattle and dogs and working hogs is a way of life and a privilege alotta hog hunters never had as kids or young adults, or old adults, meaning more vet bills and less doctoring...and with that comes the loss of morals as far as some folks new to hog hunting killin every hog they bay and lettin big packs of runnin catch dogs chew their ears off and such...Use to b bout workin the hogs and Ensuring there will b good hogs to hunt next year.. That's a whole other topic though and just how I was raised so please take no offense anyone

i have given it to mine... dont think it does much for fleas mainly just promotes a healthy coat, kinda expensive and a hassle, not worth it in my opinion... i worm mine with ivomec injectible cow wormer and put insecticide cow ear tags on their collars and i rarely have a flea on my dogs or in my yard... bout twice a year i spray the dogs and pens down with permetherin 10 concentrate... mixed pretty strong... and it works great. Just about anything you need to doctor dogs can b gotten at jeffers vet supply or tractorsupply, LA200, penicillian, rabies vaccines, blood clot powder, cut n heal, 7 way vaccines, sutures, wormer, iodine, syringes, needles...all easily available... and about 1/5 the price. i took one dog to the vet, cost me 550$ to put a drain tube in him!! never again, a heavy guage needle and rubber band do the same thing for less than a dollar... dogs usually lick their wounds when they can and that keeps the infection down..i use cut n heal, used it on myself before too, bad as it burns its gotta kill all the infection lmao!!!

I would stay away from the7 in 1 vaccine and get the 8 in 1. could save your pups life.

Antibiotics... Cold runny nose immune boost...never used it much for infection... B12...Penicillin...la200...bute...banomine...Depends what i have handy when i need it... Used it many times and never hurt mine... But I didn't ask the vet... Put pour on cidectin wormer on them too and didn't hurt them... But like I said in 20yrs of huntin dogs I've taken one to the vet... If I can't fix em they go to the happy huntin grounds lol but I agree I doubt the vet recommends half the stuff I do and I wasn't recommending anyone to use la200 by no means... More less just tryin to state the versatility of TSC and Jeffers, same as with the solojec7... Sorry for any confusion Smiley
