Frenchie Basics
1. French bulldogs LOVE people! They
love anyone and everyone.
2. Bulldogs are considered a "silent breed". Simply
put they don't bark much, which is good for you and good
for your neighbors.
3. French Bulldogs can make good apartment dogs.
These dogs don't require tons of space as long as you
don’t leave them alone too long.
4. Frenchies enjoy walks. They are
a moderate energy dog so short walks get the job done.
They WILL NOT be your running buddy. No collars,
body harnesses only.
5. Frenchies love order and cleanliness.
6. French Bulldogs love spending time with family
indoors. Nothing is better then snuggling up with your
puppy on cold winter days.
7. French Bulldogs are independent, funny, obedient,
protective and affectionate. All pluses for a family
pet. They have also been known to have a so-called
"sixth sense" when it comes to protecting children.
8. This is NOT an outdoor dog!! This is a
Brachycephalic breed (flat faced) and pants
inefficiently. Heat stress can cause the throat to
swell, rapidly increasing overheating, and restricting
airflow into the respiratory system.
They can DIE from overheating very easily.
9. This dog should not be left
in your car. If your car is too hot for you it is
definitely too hot for your Frenchie.
10. French Bulldogs are very
social. One of the best qualities of
a Frenchie is its sociable and happy nature. This means
it is your responsibility to provide them with plenty of
attention. If you work long days or
are gone for long periods of time then this is not the
dog for you.
11. French Bulldogs SINK in
water. You should reconsider owning this breed if you
have a swimming pool or live by a lake or pond.
Frenchies have a top heavy frame, chest and head.
The French Bulldog cannot swim, and will quickly
drown if they are in water where their feet cannot touch
the ground. Some Frenchies enjoy water and can do so
under close supervision or with a life jacket.
Since I get asked a lot
of questions, I decided to make a sections that answers
all your basic questions. Please email me at any time if
you feel that you have any additional questions.
What type of Guarantee do you give
with your puppies?
Check out the Guarantee page on our site for all the
details.
I am very hesitant about shipping
my puppy with the airlines, how safe is it?
We believe that the shipping process can be made
convenient for the puppy if the proper precautions are
taken in advance. We never ship our puppies without our
Veterinary approval. Don't forgot that airlines have
strict rules and regulations and as long as the dog is
healthy it's not a problem.
The airlines have strict policies that govern the
shipping of animals and hefty fines, upwards of $10,000
can be imposed for violations. Each animal shipped must
have a signed documented Veterinary Certificate stating
that the animal is in good health and must have a
certificate of acclamation stating the temperatures at
which the animal can be exposed to.
If you still feel hesitant about shipping your puppy
we can always hand deliver your puppy to you. This
service is wonderful if weather does not permit shipping
during the summer time or if don't want you puppy to be
alone during it's travel. Prices vary depending on the
airlines and destination.
Shipping rates are around $250.00 and up
depending on the location. Please email us for an exact
quote.
The following is included in your
shipping price:
- Special airline crate with accessories
- Puppy airline ticket
- Veterinary exam to fly
- Health certificate to fly
- Time and travel expenses
What type of Dog food do you feed
your dog?
If you ask a hundred breeders you will more likely
get a hundred different answers. But we feed our dogs
NUTRO Holistic Small Breed food. Our puppies are feed
Nutro Puppy. After trying over a dozen dog food brands
we noticed this was the best blend of complete dog food.
It is a bit expensive but lasts a very long time. Please
don't feed your dog Ol'roy or any of that cheap stuff.
Remember what goes in must come out. By feeding your dog
quality food you are guarantying that they will live a
long healthy life and will be less likely to have health
problems.
