The French bulldog is a unique and original dog that will attract attention for its appearance. Its character and attributes make it an ideal companion dog. At the same time it becomes a great friend to people with disabilities or older adults since due to its physiognomy, its mobility is a little less than that of some larger breeds. These dogs have become very popular in recent years, which is why people have become more open to having one at home.

So if what you are looking for is a faithful and calm companion, the French bulldog or Pug would be the ideal option for you and your family.

French bulldog care

Bulldogs adapt well to homes and cold weather does very well for them since they are sensitive to high temperatures. Therefore it is advisable to avoid exposing them to intense heat and you should always have water available to hydrate them since they can suffer blows of heat. Frenchie Dog is an ideal dog to have in a small flat or apartment, but he needs exercise for about 30 minutes a day. It is not suitable for long walks.

Bathe your French bulldog once a month

It is recommended that you brush him 2 to 3 times a week, so you will not need to bathe him as often and it will also make his coat look healthy. You must pay close attention to their ears as dirt enters them very easily, it is important to clean them regularly. Wrinkles need to be cleaned often to avoid fungal problems. You can clean them with a damp cloth, and if it is very dirty use soap and water.

Clean their eyes and teeth regularly, also don’t forget to trim the nails. Feed him 3 times a day in small portions, as these dogs can suffer from gastric torsion. You must have all his vaccinations up to date and take him to the vet for a general check-up and rule out possible health complications.

Conclusion

You can give him moderate rewards to educate him but without exceeding the indicated amount. Some bulldogs need a specific diet not only to take care of their weight, but also due to allergies. If you decide to change the feed, it is suggested that you do it by mixing the new one with the old one since sometimes it does not sit well with their delicate stomachs. Don’t forget to protect him from the cold and sun-heat. You can buy French bulldog winter dress and cold bandanas to protect him from heat stroke.
