           I have always been attracted by dogs since I        give serious health issues if not bred properly. I
           was a kid. I got my first bulldog in 2003 and       always breed my dogs for health and type, trying

           I enjoy showing my dogs at important shows
           in Italy, all over Europe and especially in UK. I
           have shown my dogs many times at Crufts (a
           show I particularly enjoy) and in 2019 managed
           to win the RBCC handling a special girl bred by
           myself: Bull And Grapes La Neve Macchiata.
           Later in 2019 this special bitch went on to win
           5 CCs and two RCCs becoming UK Champion.
           It is always very difficult in my opinion to make
           a dog champion, but making this girl up, made
           me very proud especially being a breeder from
           overseas.
