The word bulldog used to be considered a swear word in France. Despite this, this dog was always very popular. The French poet Colette owned several dogs of this breed and often walked them through the streets of Paris.
In 1932, in her book “Prison and Paradise”, Colette describes the character of a bulldog as follows: “When she meets an ordinary dog, she thinks of nothing, because she doesn’t even notice other dogs Basset, a greyhound, or a German shepherd. A kind of torpor, especially when sexually aroused, sometimes afflicted her when a hot-blooded stranger with flowing fur and a long, heraldic snout tried to take hold of her. I saw They lie on the ground eye to eye, but his wooing was in vain, for she simply turned away from the besieger. The Bulldog loves only one breed – its own.”
Can the French Bulldog be affectionate?
The French bulldog loves a peaceful life with his family, who spoil him with tenderness. She loves to lie on your knees when you are working at your desk or to sleep at your feet. Your bully will want to follow you everywhere. In short, the French Bulldog is a people lover who wants to share the finer things in human life with them and doesn’t want to be constantly sent to their basket – there is hardly a more affectionate dog!
When faced with severity and injustice, the French bulldog can be defiant, sulky and quarrelsome. She is very sensitive and easily offended – but she is not resentful. When satisfied, she often lets out deep but happy snores. This peculiarity can be traced back to the structure of the skull of the dog.
Can French Bulldog protect your family?
Despite its size, the French bulldog is a true Molosser and heir to brave fighters. It immediately sounds an alarm if intruders approach the house or are in the apartment. If provoked, she attacks them too. Male dogs in particular have amazing courage. They don’t seem afraid of anything. Sometimes people have to intervene to protect the dog.
Can French Bulldog live in a small apartment?
The French Bulldog is an adaptable dog. She feels just as comfortable in a small 2-room apartment as she does in a large house with a piece of land, but she likes it very human. She finds it really comfortable on the sofa. If you don’t like that, you should put her in her own place right from the start, where she doesn’t have to feel disturbed. But you should think very carefully about letting her sleep in your bedroom because she snores at night!
Dogs of this breed are ideal for watching in an urban environment and in a small apartment. Their short, smooth and dense coat does not create care and does not need trimming, combing or trimming. It is not dangerous for your carpets, sofas and armchairs. The size of the “French” is convenient in every respect (it is 30-35 cm high at the withers). It does not interfere with your feet (this is not necessarily true) and is able to accompany you on any journey. There is no need to describe the standard of the breed in detail here (see the other note Standard of the breed), but the character of this dog and its merits can be talked about for hours.
Can French Bulldog live with kids?
The French Bulldog has the amazing ability to adapt to the living conditions in which it is placed. He is extremely contactable and likes to communicate and be in the company of his favorite family members. The Frenchman is happy simply when everyone is at home, he can play with your child for hours or lie with you in front of the TV without disturbing you with any unnecessary movement.
The muscular and resilient French bulldog is not a dangerous dog. She is very trusting of strangers – which may not be good for the ego of its owner but is good for the dog should it have to change familiar homes and owners for whatever reason – enjoys playing outdoors with children. She likes to romp around with the little ones and even allows her to be dressed in doll clothes and tied with ribbons around her neck. She is a very athletic dog. If not strictly a lap dog – given her weight of up to 14kg – she makes an excellent family pet.
Can French Bulldog stay home alone when you go to work?
If you’re at work, the bulldog will be quietly dozing all day, curled up in his favorite place, waiting to hear the door unlock. He will greet you on the doorstep with such a happy and joyful expression on his face that all your fatigue accumulated during the day will disappear and your troubles will take a back seat.
Looking at this sweet, wonderful creature, you will suddenly realize that a little has risen in the house, charming and very warm sunshine. It’s amazing how tender feelings the French Bulldog is able to evoke in the man who decided to take this particular breed.
Even in the first weeks of the Frenchman’s life in the owner’s household, often everyone suddenly realizes that they can no longer do without communication with their new four-legged friend. With the arrival of the puppy, the home is filled with comfort and joy.
French bulldogs get used to their owners very quickly and strongly. In response to your care for him, the Frenchman’s heart responds with such affection and such great love that it is impossible to describe.
Will French Bulldog attack guests?
French bulldogs are also very precise psychologists. They judge people well and orient themselves in the situation. If a person comes to visit the house as a friend or a good acquaintance and the owners are happy with his appearance, then the Frenchman will be happy with everyone. She will show the guest her toys, she will even invite him to play. If the guest allows, he will jump on his lap and gently lick him. And if people don’t like him, he will go to bed and wait for the moment when they think of him and call him. God forbid the guest turns out to be uninvited. The bulldog will not only announce with his bark to the owners about the approach of the stranger but will also fearlessly attack the enemy, defending his home and loved ones.
😍 These gadgets are on my Frenchie’s wishlist, maybe your Frenchie needs them too? 🥰
✅ My Frenchie has been self-conscious about his hair for years. He finally has the confidence to go on walks now. Other dogs don’t even know it’s a wig! What a steal!! LOL
✅ These matching sweaters are absolutely adorable. Fits my 22lb French bulldog like a glove, his shirt is super soft.
✅ Lots of folks said it was the cutest thing they had seen in a long time! It came with adjustable straps just in case the Frenchie gains weight (again.)
✅ Safety first, right? My Frenchie loves bike rides in the backpack but not so much in the rain, this Goggle/Hemlet set really helps keep the rain out of the eyes and ears.
✅ The hoodie is really well made and super soft fleece-lined! My Frenchie has been in it for hours, which is not common… safe to say it is puppy approved!
✅ You only need this one high-quality water-resistant jacket for Winter. Necessary piece. Make sure you check out the reviews to get the right size instead of keeping returning.
✅ There are built-in ear holes for comfort, which is how my Frenchie usually wears it, but sometimes we just have to keep those ears covered up and keep the heat in on the super-cold days.
✅ No animal should have to sleep on the floor and hurt or be cold. I asked my Frenchie for a review – unfortunately he’s too busy snoring, farting and sleeping on it to answer me…lol
✅ This is a fantastic car seat w lots of clever features. The entire seat can collapse to fit into its own carrying bag, though it’s easily put together again in 30 sec. The cover that the dogs rest on is silky soft faux fur which doesn’t seem to snag dirt and debris. It easily zips out for washing, and during the summer you can reverse the cover so the canvas side is up and not the fur. The pillow that boosts the dogs up in the seat has a soft foam side akin to memory foam. It’s very roomy and well made for a small Frenchie.
✅ The couch is stylish and lightweight but definitely sturdy. As an added bonus the legs have non-skid pads on the bottom so it won’t slide when he gets in and out of it. Holding up pretty good even when Frenchie digs in it…
✅ Let me do you a favor and let you know that you NEED this NOW!!! It was very comfortable for me at this height. No pain or awkward positions and I didn’t get soaked.
✅ I don’t remember seeing any other pet strollers using this kind of high-end wheels. Perfect for the small puppy that is old or can’t walk much.
