Meet the French Bulldog

French Bulldog

The bat-eared appearance of the French Bulldog and level skull between them which then forms a sort of domed head makes them distinctive in the dog world. Unlike the English Bulldog’s dour expression, the Frenchie has a much more alert appearance and it always ready for a good romp. Their happy disposition makes them very good pets. The breed has been recognized for a long time in the US with the first specialty taking place in the famous Waldorf Astoria hotel in NYC in 1898. Though their primary occupation is as pet or companion with a compact, heavily boned body and a short coat that requires little care; the breed is also an excellent watchdog. Their size and the fact that they are known for not barking a lot, makes them excellent for apartment living. Frenchies come in several colors including brindle, fawn, white, brindle and white and their skin should be loose enough to cause wrinkles around the shoulders.
