Dogue de Bordeaux

     My name is Jean Deverau and our family started raising Dogue de Bordeaux dogs about three years ago. With our french heritage, we were instantly attracted to this breed. While they strike an imposing figure they possess a friendly demeanor. They "love the outdoors" and are a "wonderful family pet."
     We started breeding because I lost my job and it seemed like an easy way to generate extra revenue. I was shocked of how much work is involved in breeding dogs. For a family that was cash strapped already, the start up cost nearly depleated our savings. Our middle class neighborhood was initially intimidates by the size of the "French mastiff," but soon warmed to the gentle giants. This is our third litter and our family is now turning a profit. My two young girls are helpful in raising the puppies and often suffer seperation anxiety when the puppies are sold. We sell them at a set price of 1200.00 but are willing to negotiate. We try to screen future owners and put the puppies in a safe enviroment.
     The experience of raising puppies has turned out, not only profitable, but educational for our entire family.
