French Bulldog

The French Bulldog, known as the "Frenchie," is a small dog with large bat ears and an even disposition. Originating from England, they were brought to France by English lacemakers. Frenchies are playful, alert, and adaptable, resembling miniature Bulldogs with large, erect ears. They have compact, muscular bodies and smooth coats. Affectionate and charming, Frenchies make excellent companions and good watchdogs due to their alertness. Generally healthy, they require research before adoption.
