About DragonSlayer Olde English Bulldogges
Welcome to DragonSlayer
Kennels, breeding for insane muscles, big blocky heads, and
maximum width. I am Mike
Tucker and I love everything about the Olde English Bulldogge.
You just entered a bs-free zone in bulldogs, where the dogs
speak for themselves, and yes, you will see that we do produce
THE FREAKIEST BULLDOGS ON THE PLANET!!!
I challenge you to look all over
the internet at the other websites, then come back to ours. Then
compare the differences, and see why our dogs are on top of the
breed. Our dogs are like none of the others. They are truly
unique, and we are very proud of all of them. These dogs are what I live for,
and they are truly my passion. I have over 20 years of breeding experience in these dogs,
and I have found them to be man's best of friends.
My goals here are to produce, train, and compete with our dogs.
My mission, my campaign, and my ambition
is to continue enjoying these AMAZING ANIMALS and help
others do the same. The dogs that I now have are some of the finest examples of the breed today.
I hope that I do not seem to come off too arrogantly, actually
those that know me best here from me on a regular basis how truly
blessed by God that I feel to have these dogs, and for them to
have me.

Stunning to Look at...
When we take our dogs out in the public, people are blown away by their appearance. These dogs are so handsome and beautiful, it makes it easy for people to brag on them. If you like what has been described about our dogs, browse through the rest of our site. This will give you an idea of the dogs that we have and what they can do.
2008 looks to be our greatest year ever for our program, and the dogs that we will produce will be unsurpassed in quality. If you would like more information about our dogs or planned breedings, feel free to contact us. We can ship puppies worldwide.

Our Dogs:
For Affection and Protection...
My dogs want to be your buddy, where you go they want to go. So
they are selected for great movement and athleticism. I wouldn't
have it any other way. My dogs are of superb temperament. They
are family dogs, not kennel dogs. There are no wild,
hyper, out-of-control dogs here.
Our Bulldogge Puppies
Our pups are family raised, and kid-tested. I have four children, and if the pups make it through them with any sanity, you will have a very well socialized, level-headed companion for life! We have 20 acres of wooded land that the dogs and puppies romp, hunt, and exercise on as well.
In the decades that I have been
breeding dogs,
I have worked very hard on my breeding program for generations
to ensure that my dogs truly are very high quality companions
with superior genetics that will be passed along in any dog that
I sell.
 
My life is so filled with happy and beautiful
days, and a big part of it has come because of these dogs. As a
youngster, dogs helped me through some very tough times, and
they continue to do the same for me. They give me something to
get up early for – and something to stay up late nights for as
well. They keep me going on the rainy days, and help me savor
the sunny days. I treat my dogs so well because I owe it to
them, for all that they have done for me.
My dogs and their progress get an ongoing, daily
evaluation from me. To make the cut in my breeding program,
they have had to live up to the most demanding of criteria and
pass the most strenuous tests. I am very proud of doing things
this way – knowing that I have not cut any corners, or taken any
shortcuts.

A dog is supposed to be a blessing to your home,
and not a burden. I personally live a very busy life. I do not
have the time to be running dogs with weak immune systems and
chronic health issues back and forth to the vet. It is far
wiser to cull dogs with health issues, and avoid those types of
inconveniences for myself, as well as my future customers.
Because of this, most people that buy one of our puppies love
it, and it has a forever home with them. This loved puppy will
then have a wonderful life, with the family that so cherishes
it. This is my end goal. I produce puppies that make people
happy to own them and want to keep them.
Through rigorous selection, DragonSlayer puppies are getting
better and better with every generation. It does not happen
overnight. You have to refuse to go with the flow, and be
diligent on details. There is so much that goes into breeding a
dog that has a wonderful disposition, perfect conformation,
great intelligence, awesome looks, and the WOW FACTOR that
causes people to stop and ask you about him or her.
The ancestory of my dogs is a very rich one
indeed. I have built my kennel around the legendary “Mason’s
Primo” – and much thanks to Eric for letting me use Primo in my
program. Although Primo is now passed on, his spirit will live
in every puppy that I produce, as every puppy produced at
DragonSlayer will have Primo blood in it. Primo possessed all
of the desirable traits that I look for in a bulldogge, and his
impact on future generations is well deserved.
Let’s talk more about the health of a DragonSlayer puppy. Hip
dysplasia is the most common genetic problem in bulldogs. I
addressed that issue immediately, and have x-rayed and graded
the hips of my dogs from day one. Generation after generation
of perfect functional conformation has provided our dogs with
great hips, less injuries, and better moving bulldogges. Our
dogs are able to withstand extremes of climate due to many
generations of selection for vigor, toughness and good health.

I Just love
coming home and looking at and spending time with my dog, they
like me too. 20 years ago I used to evaluate my dogs and
decide who would make the cut or not - who measured up to my
standards, and who didn’t. Now, I have quite a different
problem. I have too many dogs, because I now have more and more
dogs that have all the desired traits that I have bred for and
coveted for so many years. It makes it tough to let any of
these fantastic creatures leave my place!
“Dogs are not our whole life, but they
make our lives whole.”
Roger Caras
Form Follows Function
Quality boils down to the same thing: stock selection and care.
I have selected dogs to not only have good looks and muscle, but
also to be very functional bulldogs. I believe that form always
follows function. Yes, it is possible to have a healthy bulldog
and still have great looks. There are various ideas and opinions
on what an Olde Bulldogge should and shouldn't do. I don't put
limitations on my dogs. A lot of factors go into what a dog will and will
not do for you. I say if you want to try your dog out at
something, and it is legal and safe, then go for it. In time,
the dog will let you know its interests.
What is an Olde
Bulldogge?
The Olde Bulldogge is a very hearty breed. It is a recreation of the ancient Roman day Bulldog. This courageous bulldog was a protector, hunter, and family companion, and was commonly used for the sport of bull baiting and bull catching. Olde Bulldogges were the bulldog of yesterday and are the healthy Bulldog of today! This is not the American Bulldog, nor the Pit Bull Terrier. This is the standard of a true English Bulldogge. Bred intentionally for health, temperament, protectiveness, and athletic ability they are free-breathers, natural breeders, and natural whelpers. They have the speed, power, and agility of a working dog. My dogs can withstand temperatures of 100 degrees above and 50 degrees below 0. If you would like a wonderful Bulldog companion, then DragonSlayer Bulldogges has what you want!
" The Olde English Bulldogge is a breed that is one in a million. Instead of developing the breed for a specific look, color pattern or size, it was developed for health, ability and temperament. It was bred to better an existing breed and this goal has been accomplished with great results and generations of healthy canines to prove it...They make amazingly great pets and are devoted and loyal. They adjust very well to all lifestyles ranging from a single-person apartment to a large family on a big farm...All in all, they are a great pet and excellent and devoted friend."

“You can say any foolish thing to a dog,
and the dog will give you a look that says, 'Wow, you're right!
I never would've thought of that!”

"In the beginning of a change the patriot is a scarce man, and brave, and hated and scorned.
When his cause succeeds, the timid join him, for then it costs nothing to be a patriot."
