Hello, we are Chris and Maria Almeida. There are five of us in total. We have three children, two bulldogs and are originally from London but for the last six years we have lived in a small village called High Halstow near to the historical town of Rochester and Cooling Castle. We are surrounded by beautiful fields and nature reserves.

We have always adored the bulldog breed and vowed that one day we would be proud owners. Our first ever Bulldog was Winnie. She was beautiful gentle and kind and she was the runt of a litter and came from Hastings Sussex. We didn't intentionally go to Hastings to have her but once we arrived she immediately chose us and we fell in love with her. Sadly we no longer have Winnie but she is never forgotten.

All our bulldogs have lived inside the house as family pets and have always been brought up with babies, small children and other animals. They are sociable and very friendly and not at all scared of anything.
