With english bull dogs the price is up there too for many of the same reasons as Yorkies since almost every whelp needs a c-section and sometimes even then dams are lost. JMHO
a friend has french bull dogs, every litter is a c-section no matter what...because of this she has a max of 3 litters each bitch, you pay $3000 - $5000 for a breed quality and know going into this kind of breeding you will be very lucky to break even...very few can free whelp!
