My name is Kim Reyes. My kennel is Villain Bullies and we are located in Victorville, CA. Otherwise known as the High Desert.

What type of dogs do you breed, and what inspired you to get involved with that particular breed?

I breed Micro Bullies, English Bulldogs as well as Frenchies. Originally I started off with breeding micro bullies with my son and daughter in law from Beesexoticbullies710. Then I got a great opportunity to have a female and male English Bulldog, and about 6 months later I won in a contest and the prize was a beautiful cream female frenchie. I fell in love with frenchies from that day forward and now I have 5 female frenchies and 1 male.

What is your favorite bloodline?

My favorite bloodline of frenchies I would have to say is either Genie bloodline or Thick bloodline from Gordos Bulldogz. The male frenchie I have is co-owned with my best friend from Tattedflock_bullys619. Our pup is from her female named Minnie and Thick.

Also they won't over breed their dogs.

Walk us through the process of purchasing a pup from Villain Bullies from start to finish.

• The process to purchase a pup from us starts with an application. Which basically introduces us to them and their family. This is so we can get an idea of their lifestyle, to see if they have the time and energy to give to a pup.
• Then after that we do an in person meeting for the family to meet the pup. I watch to see how they interact with the pup and vice versa.
• Next we schedule a day and time to bring the pup to them and to exchange money and ownership of the pup. That way we see where the pup will live and if there are other animals or not.

Do you currently show any of your dogs?

I do not currently show any of my pups.

What advice does Villain Bullies have for any upcoming breeders?

Advice I have for upcoming breeders is to not give up. You don't always get a win, sometimes you get losses. It's not a get rich quick scheme. You have to be able to invest your time and money. Surround yourself with good breeders that will mentor you.

What do you think is the most difficult thing for people in the bully game to overcome?

I think the most difficult thing a breeder has to overcome is losing one of your females or puppies or any of your dogs for that matter. Unfortunately it does happen.

How do you think they can overcome this thing?

The way to overcome this is to do your best and be cautious. Don't let your dogs be in the heat and always make sure your dogs have fresh water.
