Yes.  The AKC first recognized the French Bulldog in 1898.  We sell most of our puppies with a limited AKC registration. This means they’re being sold as pets and the new owner agrees to spay/neuter them after six months of age. These puppies are just as pure bred as those with full registration and they can be entered into most AKC competitions.

French bulldogs are people lovers and want to please.  Therefore, they are generally easy to train. They are fairly easy to potty-train.

Neutered and spayed Frenchies are considered best.  They tend to have less health issues and tend to not exhibit such annoying habits as marking their territory, soiling the rung, humping a friend’s leg, being a flight risk, or exhibiting mood swings.

Everything we have read and heard suggests Frenchies do love children. Of course, your children must be taught how to behave around them and to never abuse them in any manner.

Everything we have read and heard suggests Frenchies do well around other pets. The earlier the introduction is made, the better the chances of a successful socialization. Of course, every situation is unique but this has been our experience.

This is a difficult question. It is obviously preferable to have someone at home with the Frenchies, but they are generally content to lounge around the house until you come home after work.  It is difficult to leave any dog at home all day.

No, Frenchies do not require lots of exercise. Frenchies adapt very well to apartment living in urban areas.

We are fortunate to know some dog nannies that will pick up the puppy from Jessie and fly the puppy to an airport near your home where they will hand deliver the puppy to you. This is obviously available on a reservation basis.  We attempt to deliver all puppies in this manner whenever possible.

This question deserves a detailed response so here goes!

1. Consider supply and demand. The demand for these majestic canines simply far outstrips the supply. The rare blues, chocolates, pure blacks, pure blues, and lilacs are simply not generally available.
2.  Frenchies tend to have small litters. They are not an easy dog to breed. This greatly increases their value and their price. This is no different than trying to buy a rare Astin Martin. The car might cost more than your home.
3.  Because of their large head and shoulders, Frenchies require a C-section which is an expensive procedure. Couple this with artificial insemination and testing for pregnancy, and you can quickly see why the cost is prohibitive.
4. The puppies require a great deal of hands-on attention and care. This is being performed by the breeder, so you receive the dog after this critical period.  Breeding and caring for Frenchies is super-time intensive, therefore raising the cost to raise them and the price.
5. We believe Frenchies are truly a majestic pet. You truly get what you pay for!
6. Even though Frenchies sell for thousands of dollars, the AKC says a reputable breeder will be lucky to break even.
