French Bulldog - Purebred
Dogs and Puppies

French Bulldog



Description

A member of the Non-sporting group, The French Bulldog's coat

is smooth and short and easy to keep clean.

Frenchies are bred primarily as pets yet they do make good watch dogs.

Their exercise needs are quite low, but they do require at least regular daily walks. Otherwise they can become quite obese.

Overall, Frenchies are friendly, good natured, playful dogs, and make fantastic companions for families, single persons and the elderly.

They do get along pretty well with strangers and other animals, but they do bond strongly to one person.

This breed is happy in any loving environment. They are house dogs whose niche in life is to be an adored pet.

Due to their short nosed faces, it impossible for them to regulate their temperature efficiently.

It is essential that all owners understand that Frenchies can not live outdoors, however. They also wheeze and snore and can often be gassy.

The Frenchie has the appearance of an active, intelligent, muscular dog with heavy bone, smooth coat, compact build, and of medium or small structure.

The two distinctive features of the Frenchie are the bat ears and the skull, which is flat between the ears. The preservation of the bat ear as a distinct feature has been due to the persistent efforts of American breeders.

Country of origin: France
