You're probably excited to go out and buy a French bulldog, but hold it!You're probably raring to go out and buy a French bulldog, but not so fast!If you can't wait to dash out and get a French bulldog, relax and do wait a minute. You can make a better choice of a dog and a breeder if you take your time to discover more about them.

 

First of all, don't be tempted to get the cheapest deal out there because if anything, this is a sign of poor breeding practices. Note that breeding a French demands hard work and money, so the dog should have a matching price tag. Also steer clear of puppy farmers or "breeders" who feel like profit is all they care about. You are sure to get unhealthy puppies, physically and behaviorally, from these people. Should you have some more questions, click here.

 

The key to finding a nice and healthy French bulldog is finding a good breeder. It's best to talk to reputable breeders or Frenchie clubs who can give you a lot of useful tips. Also, as you screen a breeder, ask for references of other breeders and clubs, and not only people who had purchased puppies from them in the past. If it feels difficult for them to give you some, it indicates that their reputation within the French bulldog community may not be impressive.

 

One concern with Frenchies is that their health tends to be more sensitive. That's the reason it's very important to ask the breeder about the puppy's parents' health. Of course, no one can't guarantee that your blue french bulldog will not have his own health issues, but it's important that you are ready for anything. In any case, healthier breeding stocks will produce healthier dogs.

 

Another important thing to remember about reliable breeders is that they will pick the best characteristics, health, and temperament tendencies for breeding, and will avoid breeding dogs that can further decrease the quality and health of the breed, even if they only want to breed companion animals. As soon as you've found a good breeder, look for a puppy that exhibits good demeanor. Poor temperament is not a general trait among Frenchies, but neither are these dogs known for being too gregarious or energetic. What you'd like is a sort of somewhere-in-between dog that has good health and appropriate temperament. With the right Frenchie pup, you can have a faithful companion animal that deserves your love and attention. Check out this video to learn more: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XaVdKSrhys4.

The ideal owner of a French bulldog is someone who either works at home or is a retiree, since this breed requires someone to be there for them most hours of the day. These dogs adore human company and would always seek to be part of their lives. They can be very friendly though, so don't be jealous if they immediately warm up to someone with a biscuit. Still, you have to remember that while Frenchies are small, they're still a bull and terrier breed. These dogs aren't also the best addition to homes with multiple pets, as they tend to be very territorial.
