We wanted (another) French Bulldog but needed to find a good breeder as a start to finding healthy, good pedigree parents so we could minimise the risk of the health issues that Frenchies can have. I... See more

I really appreciated the thoroughness with which Champdogs vetted me before allowing me to list my dogs and my litter. Although the website is a bit clunky it works well once you get the hang of it. T... See more

This site has very mixed priorities

This site has very mixed priorities, rejecting dogs, bitc and litters of puppies, yet happily list litters with numerous health problems.. detected.
Very happily take your money then just remove your membership and not even tell you unless you chase them for a reason.

Mark Roach and his “team” are just rude, arrogant and I’d actually say undermine breeders who are not only just visited, but checked and audited by the Council for their licence and The Kennel Club for assured breeders scheme.

I initially had a litter rejected for the fact the sire was dead and the litter was conceived by AI from frozen semen and I couldn’t provide an upto date eye test for a dead dog…… which I didn’t even own!
After explaining this I was booted off with a refund. I rejoined weeks later to then be booted off again many weeks later. This time for an error done by the Kennel Club. A genuine mistake done by someone of the kennel club when doing the registrations making it look like the bitc had whelped within 11 months of a previous litter.

All this was still on The Kennel Club records when I had a Champdogs membership before but was never picked up on until the second time I tried to install the membership.

Proof and the fact the assured breeders team and my local council check all paperwork, applications and the dogs when visiting makes it impossible to have been a mating done within the 11month period.

Maybe it’s time to hang up your hat Mark Roach?

Joke

I am fuming. I had an email saying that I could no longer have an account as I have been breeding non recognised colours. I breed golden retrievers so this is a joke. All my dogs have every health test under the sun and they have banned me from using? I have seen litters advertised on the site with above average hips and elbows which is not acceptable but they allow them? Won't be using ever again and the email is so rude.

Excellent site.

Do not have any problems with Champdogs. Have had a presence on the site for more years than I care to mention and never had any problems at all. In fact ALL the contacts for our last two litters came from Champdogs enquiries and we did not need to advertise at all. We are still getting contacts through them and most are happy to wait on our list for the perfect dog.

Poor Website Usability.

We was going to advertise on this site, however the service is overpriced and the website usability is shockingly bad.
Most people looking for dogs don't have the experience of using Yahoo or Netscape some 20 years ago to help them navigate the site.
If you want to upload a listing it gets 10 times worse! Somewhat reminiscent of filing your yearly tax return comes to mind.

The only people that will carry on using this site are the ones that have invested hours in filling in the forms and don't want to lose the work they have put In to their profiles. As far as I feel, this site is dead in the water without the operating company learning how to code websites in the new languages that are available.

Steer clear and don't waste your time or money until these issues are resolved.

Don’t waste your time

We initially signed up to champ dogs as our dog was having puppies and we thought this website a good way to find homes for all of them. Despite being Kennel Club registered they refused to allow us to advertise our pups. Apparently our dog had been registered (by the previous breeders as a colour not listed at the Kennel Club) although she was registered.
Thank fully we found lovely homes for the puppies and have decided to not breed again. We have asked champ dogs to remove us from the list of breeders which they haven’t acknowledged. We continue to be bombarded daily by requests for puppies and have reached the point where we simply can’t reply to everyone.
Maybe most of the breeders are in the same boat? Don’t waste time/hand your hopes on finding a puppy at Champ Dogs!
