French Bulldogs are not a very common breed in the United States but are gaining popularity very quickly. Their unique look and jovial personalities make them a great pet for families or for single apartment dwellers. French Bulldogs are often mistaken for Boston Terriers, but can be differentiated by their large “rose shaped” ears.

French Bulldogs are small and stocky. They are energetic and will romp around in the park or backyard but are often happy in a low-key environment. They enjoy being with their people most of all and are very quiet dogs that only bark when they become aroused by unusual activity.

Choosing a French Bulldog Breeder

Be very careful when you’re looking into getting a French Bulldog from a breeder. There are many disreputable breeders importing sick puppies into the United States from Eastern Europe and Russia. These puppies are often sick when they’re purchased and many die days after purchase. Some of these breeders will outright lie to you, saying that they raise the puppies themselves.

The best way to avoid this situation is to research as much as you can. If you’re thinking about getting a French Bulldog from a kennel, do a search for that kennel on the internet and see if any complaints written about that kennel pop up. You can also visit www.frenchbulldogrescue.org. This site has lots of information about which kennels and breeders are the worst. They also have links to breeders, but always, always research the breeder before buying a puppy from them.
