French Bulldog Information

Description

A sturdy little bulldog with large, erect, rounded bat ears and a flat muzzle. The square flat head is not as massive as the English Bulldog's. The forehead is rounded. Height doesn't matter as long as the dog is well balanced. The height at the withers should be approximately the same as the length from withers to tail set. The dog should be pear- shaped, with the shoulders wider than the tail area. There are two weight classes of French Bulldog, 19-22 lbs. and 22-28 lbs. Over 28 pounds is a disqualification of AKC standards. The short, soft, easy-care coat comes in brindle, fawn, white and combinations of brindle or fawn with white. The skin is soft and fairly loose, making the dog very pleasant to pet. The prominent round eyes are dark colored and the bite is undershot. The tail is either straight or cork-screw.

A dog is one of the few remaining reasons why some people can be persuaded to go for a walk.

Personality

He has told me a thousand times over that I am his reason for being:

by the way he rests against my leg;

by the way he thumps his tail at my smallest smile.

Gene Hill

A good dog deserves a good home.

Proverb

If you think dogs can't count,

try putting three dog biscuits in your pocket

and then giving Fido only two of them.

Phil Pastoret

The French Bulldog is affectionate, uncomplicated, gentle, intelligent, sensitive, loyal, and fearless. The French Bulldog is known for its loyalty; its happy-go-lucky attitude is in sharp contrast to its sour face. French Bulldogs are happiest when being shown affection and will misbehave if ignored. French Bulldogs are active, alert, and playful, but not overly hyper.

French Bulldogs get along well with other dogs and household pets. They are great with children, well behaved, adaptable, comfortable companions with an affectionate nature and even disposition. Some French Bulldogs are cautious with strangers, but most are friendly to everyone. They are likely to drool or snore.

If your dog doesn't like someone,

you probably shouldn't either.
