Half Frenchie Half Pitbull, Meet Rocko the French Pitbull Credit : @rocko_and_reggie What do you get when you mix an unmovable couch potato and an unstoppable good boy? A French Pitbull! What’s a French Pitbull? It’s a French Bulldog mixed with a Pitbull! More often than not, they have the body, face, and tail of a Pitbull and the lovely ears and goofball energy of a Frenchie. They’re relatively new and somewhat rare, and the best thing about them is that both Frenchie and Pittie genes mix great. I own two Frenchies. I also have a few family members who own Pitbulls. I have never seen both co ..read more

French Bulldogs are love-filled little couch potatoes – what’s not to like about that perfect mix? Some people feel that’s not enough and look for mini Frenchies.  Unfortunately, that causes countless problems for French Bulldogs! Miniature Frenchies are unhealthy and used by unethical breeders to make money. I have two wonderful Frenchies. I want the best for them, so I can’t fathom why anyone would want to promote anything wrong within the French Bulldog community. Here are 13 reasons why you shouldn’t look for a mini Frenchie! Table of Contents 1. Miniature Frenchies Don’t (Really ..read more

The tail of your furry friend plays a big part in their communication with you – but sometimes it’s difficult to understand what’s going on because Frenchies seem to have no tail at all. So, do French Bulldogs have tails? Every French Bulldog has a tail. Some are so short and small that it may seem that Frenchies are tailless – but that’s not the case. In some unfortunate scenarios, people choose to dock their dog’s tail, though that practice is often illegal or frowned upon. My Frenchies have the same type of tail – but there’s more than one type out there. There’s also more than one way to ..read more

Who, me?! My Steven knows a thing or two about shedding! I remember when I started seriously looking into buying a Frenchie, “Do French Bulldogs shed?” was one of my first Google searches.  At first glance, these adorable balls of muscle with their shiny short course coats appear to be shed-free, and for the most part, they are.  Officially, Frenchies are categorized as ‘normal shedders.’ I admit that I breathed a small sigh of relief when I saw that! In my search for a new pup, I kept having flashbacks to when we owned a gorgeous Golden Retriever called Bart. His long dark golden f ..read more

Winnie, a Blue Fawn Frenchie! Credit : @Whisper&Winnie What do you get when you mix Blue with Fawn? You get a Blue Fawn French Bulldog! Well, it’s not that simple – so, what’s a Blue Fawn Frenchie? A Blue Fawn Frenchie is a very rare type of French Bulldog that looks like a light version of a Fawn Frenchie. It’s the result of combining the dominant genes of a Fawn and the recessive genes of a Blue, among other things. I’m doing a deep dive into French Bulldog genetics, and Blue Fawns provide the perfect opportunity to see how two types of Frenchie genes mix. Are you undecided between gett ..read more

Physically White but genetically Cream, Meet Kota Credit : @ThelmasBullys Did you know what makes a White French Bulldog – is also what makes them controversial? But first, what’s a White French Bulldog? A White French Bulldog has a white coat or an almost (at least 90%) white coat. No exact genes are behind this type of Frenchie: several conditions cause white coats, and, at the same time, certain types of French Bulldogs may pass as white when they’re light-colored. Luzy, my Piebald, has a few siblings with white coats and black heads. Noticing that was enough to send me down a rabbit hole ..read more

Winston, the Cream Frenchie, was best-in-show at the 2022 National Dog Show in Philadelphia. Credit : Steve Donahue/ National Dog Show It’s sweet, light-colored, and will make your day. It’s not cream – it’s a Cream Frenchie! What’s a Cream French Bulldog? A Cream French Bulldog is a rare Frenchie with a light-colored coat most would describe as pale or eggshell. This type of French Bulldog has a lot of variations, though most of them are treated as different types of Frenchies. I’m spending a lot of time reading about Frenchie genetics, and I have to say Cream Frenchies helped me understand ..read more

Look at this cutie! Credit : @nellsfrenchbulldogs It has a white coat and black patches – but it’s not a cow or a zebra. Can you guess what it is? That’s right! It’s a Piebald Frenchie. What’s a Piebald French Bulldog? A Piebald Frenchie has a white coat and colored patches throughout their body. These patches are far from uniform and can vary in shape and size. Piebalds are somewhat rare. These beautiful Frenchies are something else. I know because Luzy, my youngest Frenchie, is a Piebald herself! And while she loves to beg for treats or steal toys, there’s more to Piebald Frenchies than tak ..read more

A gorgeous little Lilac French Bulldog puppy Credit : @outoftheblue_frenchies If you’re on the lookout for a new Frenchie puppy, or you’re visiting this page because you find them adorable, you may have noticed by now no two Frenchies look the same. I found it exciting but also a little overwhelming! When I started exploring the Frenchie world for the first time. I couldn’t get over how beautiful these colors were, but to me, they didn’t make much sense. ‘Blue’ looked like a dark grey, and then, I came across ‘Lilac’, which certainly didn’t seem like a light purple… and don’t even get me sta ..read more
