Welcome to the home of the cutest (and ugliest!) Frenchies around at Pretty Ugly Frenchies! Our kennel is run by GiGee Gabor, a passionate matriarch who is dedicated to breeding healthy and structurally sound Frenchies with tons of personality. In this blog post, we’ll be sharing all our best tips and tricks for raising and caring for these adorable pups. Let’s get started!

Understanding the French Bulldog Breed:

Frenchies are a small breed with big personalities. They are known for their playful and affectionate nature, and make great companions for families with kids. It’s important to understand their specific needs, including their dietary requirements, grooming needs, and exercise needs.

Health and Genetics:

Frenchies can be prone to certain health issues, such as breathing problems and eye conditions. That’s why it’s crucial to choose a reputable breeder who conducts genetic testing on their adult dogs before breeding. At Pretty Ugly Frenchies, we DNA/OFA test all of our adult dogs to ensure the health and well-being of our puppies.

Training and Socialization:

Frenchies are smart cookies and can be easy to train with the right approach. It’s important to start training and socialization early to ensure that your Frenchie grows into a well-behaved and confident dog. We recommend using positive reinforcement techniques, like treats and praise, to motivate your Frenchie and help them learn new tricks.

Grooming and Care:

Frenchies have a short and smooth coat that is easy to groom. They should be brushed weekly to remove loose hair and prevent tangles. They also need regular nail trims and ear cleanings to maintain good health.

Conclusion:

Raising a Frenchie can be a super fun and rewarding experience, as long as you’re prepared to meet their specific needs. By understanding the breed, choosing a reputable breeder, training and socializing your Frenchie, and providing regular grooming and care, you can help your Frenchie thrive and become a beloved member of your family. Thanks for choosing Pretty Ugly Frenchies, and we hope you enjoy your new furry family member!
