The 5 most lovely things about having a Frenchie
The list of why we think Frenchies are the most amazing dogs is endless, but here we’ll list 5 things that are probably the most lovely about having a Frenchie.
1. Frenchies are fun and adorable
If you’re looking for a dog with a big personality, a Frenchie is definitely the one for you. They are little clowns who always do something silly to make you smile. Sweet, cuddly, playful, fun, cute… the list could go on. They are impossible not to love!
2. Frenchies get along with everyone
Frenchies are very sociable who get along with all family members from children to grandparents, from other dogs to cats. If you’re looking for a furry sibling for your kid or your pet, a Frenchie is your best choice.
3. Frenchies are low-maintenance
Frenchies have short fur so they only require occasional grooming. This makes them ideal companions for those who live in an apartment.
4. Frenchies don’t need much space
Because of their relatively short size, Frenchies don’t need a big garden to run around all day. They are perfectly happy lying on the sofa all they and require little exercise during the day.
5. Frenchies are the best companions
Dogs are known to be loyal in general, but Frenchies take this to a next level. They are insanely affectionate and become very attached to their owners. They would spend every minute of their time with their parents if they could!

3 things to avoid when you’re about to adopt a Frenchie
If you have fallen in love with this amazing breed and even decided to get your very own Frenchie puppy, it’s essential that you learn about some common mistakes that new dog parents tend to make. You can read about these in more detail from the e-book, here we will only mention some key things to consider before adopting a French Bulldog puppy.
1. Not learning about Frenchies before your puppy arrives
One of the first mistakes that you can make is that you don’t do your research on the breed before you welcome your new puppy into your home. Frenchies are extremely flexible and want to please their owners more than anything, but they do have some special needs that you need to be aware of as a responsible parent. For example, being so affectionate they require a lot of attention throughout the day and cannot be left alone for a long time.
You also need to feed them the highest quality foods so that they don’t develop allergies. They have a tendency to become obese so you need to make sure they do enough exercise, but not too much at once because of their short snouts. You also need to pay extra attention to them during the summer as they tend to overheat. These are only some of the most important things you need to watch out for.
2. Choosing a Frenchie from a puppy mill
During recent years Frenchies have become one of the most popular dog breeds. The increasing demand resulted in higher prices and unethical breeders who saw this as an opportunity to start breeding Frenchies merely for the profit. Due to the low selling prices they can’t afford the best quality food, vet, shots and vitamins for the puppies who are kept in tiny places where they are not even able to learn how to run. They don’t do health checks on their dogs before starting to breed them either, resulting in some serious health issues.
So, you might save money at first by choosing a cheap puppy, but later on you will leave a fortune at the vet, not to mention the stress both of you will go through. At TomKings Puppies we make serious efforts to fight against unethical breeding and educate puppy parents on how to recognize false intentions. You’ll find some essential tips in the e-book on how to avoid ‘puppy mills’.
When you begin your research on French Bulldog breeders, you’ll inevitably come across some cheap offers starting from a couple of hundred dollars. Why you shouldn’t be tempted by these? Because there are lots of scammers out there who use these amazing deals to trick people into buying a puppy that doesn’t even exist. “But they seemed to be so nice!” – we hear victims referring to scammers, who obviously never look like bad guys. They know all the little tricks to look real, in the e-book you’ll find tips on how to spot these.
