Q & A
How long have you been a breeder?
​
Since 2017
​
Can I meet the parents?
​
Yes, you can book a day to visit the ranch.
​
Have the puppies been socialized?
​
Our puppies begin socializing with people other than us at four weeks old. These are trusted members of our community, from elders to children. So long as they pass our biohazard test they can handle and play with the puppies. Socialization with the other dogs on the ranch starts at week six.
​
Is the puppy up to date on vaccinations and has been dewormed?
​
Once puppies are weaned they start on solid foods, and we introduce our holistic deworming recipe. Vaccinations and microchipping are done by the puppy owner at their local vet. We do not vaccinate our animals as we believe in breeding animals with naturally robust immune systems.
​
Do you have references?
​
Yes, please see testimonials page below.
​
Can we contact you after taking the puppy home?
​
Never hesitate to give us a call for any advice. We maintain contact with our puppy parents.
Testimonials
In July of 2020 I picked up my little pup Jackson from Joyland Ranch. He has been an amazing companion and is as smart as a whip. He was house and crate trained within a week and a half. He was the runt of the litter but has been the most affectionate dog I’ve had and is the best cuddler! I work shift work and he has learnt my schedule without issues. He is great with other dogs in the neighbourhood and absolutely loves people. Be has a lot of energy but some great rope/ball toys and plenty of walks keeps him happy.
Thanks Joyland ranch for the great addition to my home. He will always be my favorite little guy.

Joyland Ranch. What a great place. A joy to deal with. We have been Bull Terrier parents for 37 years. Their dogs are some of the nicest looking and have very pleasant personalities. This is our fourth generation bully. Highly recommend Joyland as a breeder. Their natural approach makes for wonderfully spirited Bull Terrierd. Beautiful family pets. Great with our grandkids and other pets. I wouldn't even consider another breeder.

We purchased a beautiful puppy from Joyland Ranch 2 months ago and we are extremely happy with him. Dorota and Kevin were also very knowledgeable on the breed and professional throughout the whole process. We got to meet both mother and father, also the environment the these dogs are raised in. They are the best of both worlds. Still a home/family experience mixed in with country living with lots of space to play and experience the outdoors. When we picked up our puppy they had already began crate training and when we brought him home the very first night was an easy transition into his crate for the night. We thought it would be few nights of no sleep but boy were we wrong. The pup would let us know when he wanted to go potty and we were quick to get up and get him outside. Not one poop in the house since we have had him and basically fully potty trained within a couple weeks. When we take him for walks everybody cant believe how beautiful his markings are and friendly. Thanks again Joyland Ranch! We definitely recommend purchasing your next Bull Terrier from them!

We love our Bull Terrier Xena who we adopted from Joyland Ranch.  She has an excellent temperament and is a great family pet.  Dorota and Kevin were super supportive through the whole process with lots of down-to-earth recommendations.  They’ve always been willing to answer our questions.  It’s evident they really love and care for every puppy.  Crate training Xena was super easy as they had already been working with her.  We highly recommend Joyland Ranch!
