Stacy Vitale and the BulldogExchange are knowingly breeding unhealthy dogs.

My puppy has hip dysplasia at 10 months old and is going to need a $10,000 surgery to make him healthy. My vet says that the mother or father of my puppy must have had hip dysplasia themselves. Stacy and her "organization" knowingly breed unhealthy dogs.

My puppy can not go up and down stairs. Many times when he is trying to get up his hind legs are temporarily paralyzed and he drags around his back end struggling to get up. This is heartbreaking to watch and it crushes me we don't have to money to perform the surgery he so desperately needs.

I reported this to the bulldogexchange before my year health gaurantee was over and they told me to read the contract. There is was in writing "guarantee does not cover hip dysplasia and elbow dysplasia."

My vet says the fact that this was the condition that the gaurantee did not cover is clear evidence that they knew exactly what they were creating when they breed my dog.

I've talked to reputable English Bull Dog Breeders (not mini bulldogs) they say that they have never had a puppy or a dog returned because of a health issue. They agree these problems can occur but that a reputable breeder would take that dog back in a heartbeat.

I am outraged and feel like I have no recourse except to maybe help someone get the truth about these breeders so that they don't suffer the same heartache and pain that my dog and my family are facing.

DON'T BY BULLDOGS FROM THESE PEOPLE. THEY ONLY WANT YOUR MONEY. THEY HAVE NO REGARD FOR THE QUALITY OF LIFE OF THE DOGS AND PUPPIES THEY CREATE.

I am a vicitm as well. I am in New Jersey. I am trying to contact all people effected by "The Bulldog Exchange, Minibulldogs.com, and especially Platinumminibulldogs. I recieved my Bulldog Duke on 8/7/08. To make a long story short, he passed away this past Monday.

I would like to talk to you about your experience and see if there is something we can all do together

Please let me know if there is a way to get your direct email
