French Bulldog Temperament

 French Bulldog Temperament and Personality

Small dogs with big personalities, French Bulldogs can quickly feel like part of the family. They make good playmates for children, although they also have an independent streak that makes careful training a must.

French Bulldogs are brachycephalic (having been bred to have a short muzzle) and can therefore be prone to certain health conditions. Find out what to look out for when bringing a French Bulldog into your life and how to care for them, including looking after their exercise and grooming needs.

Behaviour & Personality

French Bulldogs are quirky and playful.

Suitable for families with or without children, they can also get along with cats and other pets if properly introduced. French Bulldogs rarely bark and, while they need some exercise, they don’t require much, making them popular among city dwellers.

You should be prepared for some hands-on cleaning and grooming rituals, and your schedule should allow for lots of time spent at home to prevent separation anxiety, which French Bulldogs can be prone to.
