Welcome to Wonderland’s Boujie Bullies & Boerboels (WBB), located on five acres in Youngstown, Florida.

While we have plenty of property for our dogs to run, play, train, and just be dogs, our program is very much home and family based. Our dogs are raised indoors as family members, not as kennel dogs. They are crate trained, accustomed to household routines, children, other dogs, and the everyday chaos that comes with being part of a busy family.

Our personal dog family is intentionally diverse and currently includes our Doodles, two American Bullies, and two Boerboels. Having multiple breeds living alongside one another has always been important to me. I want the dogs I produce to have experience beyond their own breed and to learn how to appropriately coexist within a real household.

A Little About Me

I’m Lyric, the owner behind Wonderland’s Boujie Kennels and Wonderland’s Boujie Bullies & Boerboels. Dogs have been a huge part of my adult life, both personally and professionally.

I have over 16 years of professional dog-training experience, including puppy development, obedience, behavior and aggression management, and advanced/off-leash training. That background has heavily influenced the way I breed and raise dogs. Temperament isn’t something I consider after a puppy is born—it plays a major role in how I select breeding dogs, evaluate puppies, socialize litters, and ultimately match puppies with their families.

Over the years, I’ve worked with and bred several breeds, including Chinese Cresteds, Sheepadoodles, Whoodles, Bernedoodles, and American Bullies. Our program eventually expanded into American Bullies largely because my husband, Chris, absolutely loves the breed. At the end of 2025, I also welcomed our first pair of Boerboels, adding a breed I’ve grown to appreciate for an entirely different purpose and temperament.

Our goal isn’t to collect large numbers of breeding dogs. I prefer maintaining approximately a pair or small trio within each program, allowing me to be extremely selective about the dogs that stay here and the combinations we move forward with.

Raised Inside. Experienced Outside.

Our puppies begin life indoors in our dedicated, climate-controlled whelping house, where I can closely manage their environment, development, cleanliness, and daily handling.

As they grow, their world gets bigger.

Living on five acres gives us an incredible opportunity to introduce puppies to different surfaces, sounds, animals, people, outdoor environments, training situations, and everyday farm life—without sacrificing the experience of being raised as household dogs.

Our adult dogs are crate trained and live as members of our family. Crates are a management and training tool here, not where our dogs spend their lives. They have indoor routines, outdoor exercise, structured training, individual attention, and plenty of opportunities to simply hang out with us.

My children, Hayden and Wayde, are also a huge part of life here. Puppies grow up seeing and interacting with children regularly, and our kids are involved in everything from feeding and socialization to simply spending time playing with the dogs. Chris is equally involved, making this a genuinely family-operated program.

We also have our rabbitry and other aspects of farm life, so there is rarely such a thing as a completely uneventful day at Wonderland. 😆

Purposeful Breeding

Health, structure, temperament, and functionality all matter to me.

Our breeding dogs undergo health testing and DNA screening appropriate to their breed, and I pay close attention to temperament before deciding whether a dog belongs in our breeding program.

With Bullies and Boerboels especially, I don’t believe appearance alone should determine breeding quality. These are powerful dogs. A beautiful dog with an unstable temperament isn’t what I want to reproduce.

My training background also allows me to evaluate puppies from a different perspective. I pay attention to things such as confidence, environmental recovery, startle recovery, engagement, energy level, independence, sociability, and how an individual puppy handles pressure and new experiences.

That helps us make better breeding decisions and helps families choose a puppy that actually fits their lifestyle—not simply the puppy whose color they like best.

Our Family, Raising Yours

At the end of the day, I want our dogs to have good lives here first.

They aren’t breeding stock that happens to live on our property. They’re the dogs riding with us, hanging around the house, watching the kids play outside, training with me, running our acreage, and becoming part of our family’s normal routine.

That philosophy carries directly into how we raise our puppies.

Our goal is to produce healthy, structurally sound, confident dogs with predictable temperaments and give them the strongest foundation possible before they ever become someone else’s family member.

We were incredibly proud to be recognized by Guide to Florida as a Best Florida Breeder in both 2025 and 2026, and we plan to continue growing without losing the hands-on, family-centered approach that built Wonderland in the first place.
