"After months of searching information on the web for Bulldogs, I came across Castles Bulldogges' website and saw the puppy I had to have. An Olde English Bulldogge we named Crash.   All the puppies were so cute but the minute I saw "her" I knew she was my new baby. I called the number on the website and Tom answered the phone. He was so nice and easy to talk to. I asked so many questions that Tom and Charlene were handing the phone back and forth and I felt like I was talking to friends I had known for years. I, for some reason, thought Weed, California was towards Tahoe. I learned it was actually a little over 3 hours from Sacramento. How was I going to convince my husband to drive to Weed, California? Well, we turned it into a romantic weekend and found a great little hotel to stay at in Mt. Shasta, with great restaurants, just a few minutes away from Weed.   When we arrived at Tom and Charlene's, I knew immediately which puppy was ours but they all had that wonderful "puppy breath" and they were very well taken care of and happy. It was hard not to take more than one home. After meeting the Sire and Dam, it was obvious this is the Castle's passion. Before leaving with our new puppy, they took the time to share her sleeping and eating routine, immunization records and sent us home with a wonderful puppy package. I love my "Crash" and am so grateful that Tom and Charlene made our first experience so memorable."

DearTom and Charlene,
I'd like to take this opportunity to thank you so much for a variety of things.  First, you were so accommodating about keeping my puppy until I could get up to Weed and, even when that was planned and the weather didn't cooperate, you went even further to help me out by bringing Violet to my sisters' home in Redding.  Secondly, the baby bag with food, pictures, immunization records and registration papers really helped me out.  It's been a long time since I have taken on the responsibility of a pup and all that, plus the information you provided and the fast response to emails made my and Violet's life so much easier.  Lastly, your attention to the breed and to each pup is amazing.  It is clear that you care about the breed and each of the puppies you raised.  Violet is well adjusted, happy and just what I was looking for; a mellow pup who would love me to death!  She definitely has her moments (usually after she has done something she knows she wasn't supposed to do and got caught), but she is just a wonderful dog.  I actually feel kind of bad referring her to Violet as a dog, since she is quite surely spoiled and doesn't think of herself as anything but my baby.  On your website, you say the puppies are all spoiled and, man, are you right, but in a good way.  As puppies go, she is pretty easy and easy going, which I don't think would be the case if you hadn’t started them off as warmly as you did.  So, thank you so much for this wonderful addition to my life!  I have to go now...Violet is sleeping in the middle of my bed (which she is pretty certain is actually her bed and she merely allows me to sleep on it sometimes) and I want to take this chance to get some quiet housework done.
Again, than you!
Diane
