Facts about the breed

Dear child has many names! The French bulldog, also known as the Frenchie, fralle or bulle, is a loving and fun-loving breed of dog. As a small molosser, it is short and compact, and looks quite powerful and muscular for its size. It is a popular dog breed, and a pure companion dog.

Although the name suggests a French origin, this is not entirely true. The small dog breed has its roots in England, but ended up in France during the Industrial Revolution, probably when English workers went there for work.

You can easily recognize a French bulldog by its flat face and short muzzle. Due to its anatomy, it quickly develops breathing problems, which can be fatal when combined with stress or higher temperatures. There have been cases of them dying during flights, and because of this, many airlines do not allow this breed of dog to fly. It is therefore important to be aware of all the health problems that come with a French bulldog so that it can live a good life.

The French bulldog is often confused with the Boston terrier and pug dog breeds.

It is important to choose a seller who provides you with information about how the dog was bred to ensure that you are not contributing to uncontrolled or illegal dog trade. Unfortunately, not everyone breeds properly and properly, which can lead to serious diseases in the puppies. Being well prepared and finding a reliable breeder is therefore in the best interest of both you and your dog.
