Information and history of the French Bulldog

French Bulldog breeders shocked the English when they renamed a toy version of the English Bulldog after their own country. The Bulldog had long been a representative of English culture. However, the English had not accepted the smaller version of the Bulldog that the French came to love. In the 1800s, toy Bulldogs were exported from England to France. French Bulldog breeders began to breed specific traits in this smaller Bulldog to distinguish it from the English version. Today there are bullies and Frenchies, as well as American Bulldogs. All three are distinctive breeds, although they share common ancestors.

Bulldog breeders, like most purebred breeders, love the breed, be it American, English, or French. Bulldogs are not low-maintenance dogs, so it takes true love for breeders to dedicate their lives and homes to a specific breed. Each of the three versions has specific health, behavioral and social needs, and good Bulldog breeders meet these needs and help potential buyers meet the needs of Bulldog puppies.

Bulldog buyers should inquire about general information about Bulldogs before making a purchase. All three varieties, American, English, and French, have similar sanitary, grooming, disciplinary, and social requirements. English and French Bulldogs have Pug noses and wrinkles. The short muzzle can make breathing difficult and these dogs can develop breathing problems. They also respond poorly to extreme temperatures and are intended to be indoor dogs. Bulldogs can suffer heatstroke if left in a hot room or car.

Wrinkles and ears should be cleaned daily to keep moisture and bacteria away. Bulldogs are prone to obesity and should be kept active and taken for a walk at least once a day. Larger American Bulldogs require a lot more activity to stay healthy and happy.

Bulldogs are social creatures and will follow owners everywhere. It is important that the owners interact with them and show them affection. Due to the Bulldog’s history of aggression, any behavior problems must be dealt with consistently since the dogs are puppies. Bulldogs respond well to positive reinforcement and tone of voice. Hitting or negatively reinforcing behavior can be detrimental to this breed. Buyers can ask American, English and French Bulldog breeders for additional details on the care and treatment of the breed.
