Hi Elena, He's doing so well. Very well behaved and growing so fast! He started puppy training at Petsmart last week and is learning very quickly. Thanks for selling us a great puppy and I will be in contact with you if I have any further questions. By the way, several people have met Luca on several of our trips to the beach and everyone is asking where I got him. I have given them your contact information. I will be sending you some pictures.

Elena Hope you guys are doing well. Just thought I'd give you an update on Abacas. I changed his name to Diesel... He went to the vet yesterday and he's doing great! He weighs 29 pounds and is a big boy. He is absolutely awesome!! Here a pic.

Elena, We are having a great time with Jersey and Hercules (now Joe). Jersey really loves having him around, and so do we. I think he is having a good time at our house, but I am sure he misses all of you. It took him a few days to get really comfortable in the house, and now it is just like he has been here from the beginning. I am so glad you allowed us to take him!!!! He follows John all over the house, the males are sticking together, I am glad Jersey is alright with that :) You can see Hercules (Joe) made himself at home on Jersey's leopard bed with pink pillow...she did not like that and walked right over to him to kick him off, it was so funny to watch. We are getting him a male looking bed this weekend. I will send photos as he grows...he is going to be huge! We are really looking forward to see how he grows. I will always keep in touch and thanks again for allowing us to add Hercules (Joe) to our home.
Sincerely, Jennifer, John, Jaelyn, Jersey, and now Joe (Hercules)

Good morning, Elena.
This is Nina (Candy is what you called the puppy) owner. She is a energetic little thing that always makes us laugh. I will send you a photo also.
Thanks Nina.

HERE IS AN UPDATE ON Kid of champion number 3 (NOW CHICO). HE IS GOING TO BE 6 MONTHS THIS MONTH.

THANKS, SAMMY

Hi Elena! Thank you so much for Akello (new name Stitch!). He is the sweetest :) I am attaching a picture of him... He loves riding in the car! Thanks!

Elena, as you know, I looked for the right French Bulldog for two years before I made my purchase from you. I looked at several hundred dogs. Time and time again I came back to your site because you were consistently breeding Quality Dogs. Quality is something I really appreciate and insist on having. His picture speaks volumes. If you know of anyone in Virginia that would show him and finish him, please let me know. He is a worthy Dog. His temperament is 100% perfection! He loves our children ages ranging from 2years- 17years. He loves his cat friend, and is my shadow. He enjoys RV-ing and his travels to various cities. He loves to be the center of attention and knows without a doubt he is quit the specimen! "Fabio's Reflection of Perfection" and Katherine Wright. I'm keeping my eyes wide open and looking at your pups regularly for my next companion.
God Bless you!

Hi Elena and Phil, Here's some pictures of my babies Molly and Dasha, she is doing very good, we're very happy with her. Molly and her get alone quite well. Again I want to thank you both for such a wonderful experience. You guys ROCK!!!
Love. Lisa, Dasha, and Molly

Hello Elena, We bought puppy from you Flitvud Milton. We love our dog very much, he means the world to us. He is loving and playful, and very friendly. He participated in the Long Beach English Bulldog Beauty Contest, and won for Best Legs (Here is the Link) We have followed all of your recommendations. If you have any other recommendations that you can give us to make sure that we have Marino in our lives for many more years to come, we would greatly appreciate it. I have attached some pictures of Marino for you to see him.
Thank you, Hector and Karina Martinez

Hi Elena Bingo Bongo has been doing very well and we are very pleased with him, we have renamed him Dexter. I did take him to the vet for his new puppy check up yesterday and the doctor said he looks great and there are no health problems. I forgot to have him sign the agreement but will have him sign it the next time, we are going back next week. I went ahead and signed my sections of the contract and have attached for your records. Thanks!

Elena, I just wanted to let you know that Favorite is doing fine. He seems to be getting bigger (I think he is close to 28 lbs. now) and just loves everyone, expecially our granddaughters...I think he feels they are his personal play toys. We go for a walk every morning...which doesn't tire him out at all. He is curious about everything 24 hours a day. He loves to be a lap dog...likes to be in either Steve's or my lap...and especially likes to rock himself in my rocking chair. Steve, Favorite and I are starting puppy training classes in a few weeks which we are looking forward to. Attached are a few pictures of him...unfortunately I'm not a good photographer.

Hi, Just wanted to give you a update on our special girl. She is doing great. She fits right in with our family. She is very spoiled. She looks at you with the dark eyes and gets what she wants. But she is very good. Calm and loving. We really love her. Thanks so much for her. Ill keep sending you pictures of the girls to keep you updated.

Awesome English Bulldog Breeder's
I just purchased my Male puppy 2 weeks ago from Elena & Phillip Merrill,and I cannot say enough good things about these people, I recieved my puppy hand delivered in Great condition, with no problems what so ever. We went to see the vet the next day and we had a clean bill of health,stool sample negative, and a very healthy baby boy. The vet told me this was the nicest bulldog puppy that he has seen in a long time and he is a bulldog vet.

The Merrill's answered any and all questions I had (and believe me it was alot) Elena has sent me numerous pictures when I have asked for them and totally communicated with me through out the purchasing process which is a very simple process. They are very honest, down to earth,& trustworthy people and extremly expierenced in what they do. I am now anxiously awaiting my baby girl from them also.
I would highly recommend them to anyone wanting to purchase a bulldog puppy.

Elena: We are having fun with the little girl. My daughter named her "Chanel". I took her for a vet exam yesterday. She is 15.5 pounds and is in great health. I will be mailing back the vet signature and vet receipt that you asked for later today. Hannah will send you pictures as she develops and grows. She is great friends with my Maltese who is 2 years old. Thank you! John.

Elena, Thank you so much for the little bulldog! I named her Chanel. She is doing so well and really likes out little Maltese. Chanel is sleeping with me every single night and is a total cuddle! I love her so much! I will send you a couple more pics as she gets bigger. Again, thank you!! Hannah

Hi Elena, Senjora doing really good. Our male Akita and male French Bulldog love her. She actually stands up to them when she thinks they want her toy. My Akita gets scared of her when she is mad at him. All of our family and friends have been by to play with her and she loves to play with our neighbors little dog. Thank you so much for taking the time to answer all of our questions on Saturday. We will keep in touch and send pictures as she grows up.
Thanks again,
Shannon Slater and family

Hi Elena, Just want to let you know Ronald is doing very well. We changed his name to Brutus. He's a very sweet boy and still acts like a puppy for an 8 month old. He had his first bath last weekend and his nails were trimmed. We're very happy to have him in our family. Thank you very much for raising such a well mannered dog. He's funny, pretty smart, and learning a lot of things. He loves eating, sleeping, and cuddling. So cute. He seems to only want to eat the dry food mixed with the Purina canned puppy food. He hasn't eaten any of the dry food when I leave it out for him. Hope all is well with you and all your other dogs.
Michelle

Elena- Just wanted to share this picture with you. We have met do many bulldog owners in Long Beach who have purchased their bulldog from you at least 5!!!
Take care - Chrissy and Gabriel Torres And Kingston(Bubbles)

Hey Elena! Just a quick update. Everything is fine. Dimond is settling in. My daughter has not left his side. :) He seems to be relaxing and really likes her (giving her lots of kisses). I attached a picture, she is reading a book to him. We are going to wait a couple of days before introducing him to our dogs.
We saw my vet today...all is fine. I am swamped the next few days with the kids, so I put the purchase agreement filled out and signed in today's mail. You should get it with your mail tomorrow or Thursday. We call him Runkle...he is very happy here. I attatched a couple of pictures for you. I will let you know how that goes! Thanks again... I'll send you another update soon.

Hello Elena! Sasha is doing great! She is such a joy to have around the house. Very sweet and funny. She looks at us like she knows what we're thinking! Attached are the signed documents you requested.
The Vet gave her a clean bill of health! Thank you again,
Samantha, Mike & Sasha

Elena, We just wanted to thank both of you for bringing our puppy Knightley (Markisa) into our lives. We couldn't have asked for a better dog. She so is so beautiful and lively that people constantly stop us to meet her. Her signature move is a butt wiggle that is so funny and silly that you can't help but laugh. Attached are a couple of pictures that we thought you would like. Also, in the future we would like to get Knightley a little brother to play with, so we will probably be giving you a buzz next year sometime. Take care.
Dave, Erika and Knightley

This is Natasha and Colin, we got Conan and Sweetlime from you last august (brother and sister, green eyed, blue carrier fawns). They just turned 1 in June and are doing great. They are so playful and sweet, with huge personalities. Everyone falls in love with them, which is good because they love all people and dogs, they always want to play. Its hard to walk them anywhere because people are always stopping us to ask about them! We couldn't be happier.
Thank you, Colin and Natasha Baker.
