What is a TRUE NATURAL MINI BULLDOG?
RB's Mini Mite Munchkins are NOT RUNTS, nor are they cross or mixed bred! Our minis are AKC purebred, naturally occurring small bullys that are born fat & healthy with a smaller frame structure. Here at Rare Bulldogs, we have taken our Natural Minis & bred them together, thus we have produced several ALL MINI Litters. As we breed Mini to Mini for several generations, soon 95% of our puppies born to such matches, will be Mini.

True Runts are malnourished in uetero or have some congenital problems that may or may not be evident at birth. If these babies live, they almost always grow up to be a normal size dog for their breed. Breeders who try to pass off Runts as Minis, petites, toys, etc. are unscrupulous & more than likely have ulterior motives.

AKC has recently changed it's size in weight on the English Bulldog. Forever it has been a flat out 55 lbs. But now they have a 50 lb designation for MALES & a 40 lb designation for FEMALES. Thus we have changed our definition of TRUE MINI to coincide with the AKC Standard on English Bulldogs. The AKC French Bulldog weight Standard is 28 lbs and the 20 to 28 lb range is commonly accepted as standard.

There is officially no accepted Standard for a "Mini English or Mini French Bulldog", but common sense would dictate that anything under the accepted standard would be considered a mini. At Rare Bulldogs.com we consider our English Bulldogs to be "Minis" if they are Boys under 50 lbs. and Girls under 40 lbs. We are striving to breed our Naturally Small English to acquire a 28 to 38 pound range. We consider our Frenchies to be mini if they are under 20 lbs, thus striving for the 12 to 18 lb range. We also designate a very few of our MINI babies as "Petite Minis" as we believe they are so petite, that they may very well stay under 15lbs. Even in our Standard size bullys we have consistently had at least one or 2 Natural mini's in every litter.
