Buying Guide for French Bulldog Uncle
Physical Characteristics
The Frenchie, or French Bulldog Uncle, typically weighs no more than 28 pounds and has a short, compact body. Their limbs are slightly shorter than their length, giving them a very “bat-like” appearance. The most recognizable physical trait of a Frenchie is their flat, upturned nose that causes them to have a disproportionately large head in comparison to their body size. They also have large, ears and an adorable attitude.
Exercise and Activity Level
French Bulldog Uncle’s are generally light-moderate exercise, but they love to play and can easily get over-stimulated. They are not known for their athleticism and don’t require a lot of physical activity to stay healthy. If taken on regular walks and given access to a backyard to play in, they’re going to be just as happy as any other pooch.
Breed Standards
The French Bulldog Uncle is a Companion or Toy Dog, Group I, according to the American Kennel Club. They are known for their average intelligence and outgoing personality. Their happiest moments happen when they’re with their people, making them social, sound dogs that are great with guests. They are loyal and can be quite protective of their owners.
Grooming and Maintenance
The French Bulldog Uncle can produce an abundant amount of drool and slobber, which warrants regular brushing and wiping. Often times their paws and beards can grow ‘thick’ with dirt, so regular cleaning and wiping down is necessary. They also have long, thick fur that mats easily, so regular brushing is a must.
