The French Bulldog is a dog breed that orginated from a group of English bulldog fanciers who were not interested in the dog-fighting realm. The english artisans, particularly lacemakers, bread a small bulldog that would weigh at least 16 lbs but no more than 28 lbs. As the Industrial Revolution grew in England, the lacemakers and other artisans took their skills and small dogs to France where they could continue to ply their trade. The small bulldog earned quite a following in France and by the late 1800's they were known as French Bulldogs. When wealthy Americans traveled to Paris they were very taken with the little Frenchie and imported him to the United States. The breed was first exhibited at the Westminster Kennel Club dog show in 1896. The French Bulldog is a gentle breed that typically has a happy-go-lucky attitude. Like many other companion dog breeds they require close contact with humans. They have fairly minimal exercise needs, but do require at least regular tendencies before they begin. The French Bulldog energy level can range from hyperactive and energetic to relaxed and laid back. French Bulldogs can be stubborn, and early and consistent obedience training is highly recommended. Housebreaking can be problematic, and crate training is generally the only efficient method to ensure your carpeting isn't ruined for life. In general, Frenchies are amiable, good natured, playful dogs, and make excellent companions for families, single persons and the elderly. Visit Wikipedia.org: French Bulldog for more info.
