French Bulldogs, often called Frenchies, are charming, affectionate, and make wonderful companions. At Great Lakes Puppies in West Michigan, we raise Frenchies with love and care, ensuring they’re well-socialized and ready to fit seamlessly into your family. Read on to see if a Frenchie is your ideal match.
Shedding
Low to Moderate
Frenchies have a short, smooth coat that’s relatively low-maintenance. They shed lightly year-round, and regular brushing helps keep their coat healthy.
Size
Small to Medium
French Bulldogs typically weigh between 16-28 pounds and stand about 11-13 inches tall, making them a great choice for smaller homes or apartments.
Temperament
Affectionate & Friendly
Frenchies are known for their loving, easygoing nature. They adore human interaction, get along well with children and other pets, and are perfect for families.
Energy Level
Moderate
French Bulldogs enjoy short walks and play sessions but don’t require intensive exercise. They’re just as happy cuddling on the couch as they are exploring the yard.
Trainability
Moderately Easy
Frenchies are intelligent and eager to please, though they can be a bit stubborn at times. Consistent, positive reinforcement training yields the best results.
Health
Prone to Breathing Issues
As a brachycephalic breed, French Bulldogs can be prone to respiratory issues and may experience hip or spinal problems. Regular vet check-ups and mindful care help maintain their well-being.
Lifespan
10-12 years
French Bulldogs often live between 10-12 years. Proper nutrition, exercise, and regular veterinary care help ensure a long, healthy life.
Grooming
Low Maintenance
With their short coats, Frenchies only need occasional baths and brushing to stay clean. Regular ear cleaning and nail trims keep them looking and feeling their best.
