Some Things To Know Before Visiting French Bulldog Breeders Missouri

By Margaret Harris


Pets make wonderful companions, especially those of the four legged kind. In fact, more likely than not you will have friends who have cats or dogs as pets and they seem to enjoy them and love them immensely, thus prompting you to ask yourself if you should also get one. One of your friends may have also suggested that you get a French bulldog or bully as a starter pet, and this may have perked up your interest. However before you go and make a commitment to get one with any of the French Bulldog Breeders Missouri near you, do read on in this article to find out more about this breed.

This breed is one that can boast an ancient lineage going back all the way to the ancient Greeks. During the time, this and similar mastiff breeds were bred to feed the ever growing demand for dogs being used in bull baiting, a blood sport using bulls versus dogs. Phoenician traders were responsible for its distribution through much of the European continent until the sport was outlawed and deemed illegal. Thus the unemployed mastiffs were later on adopted as non sporting companions.

Quite similar to the British bulldog, this breed is much smaller with a wider girth and short legs. It also has much more erect ears and sports a tamer temperament. It is not known to exhibit aggressive behaviors which sometimes can be seen in its British cousin and can be left alone with little children and even other animals or dogs.

Owners will confirm that this is one dog that loves attention, and craves a lot of it, making it one of the more lovable breeds around. When it is not getting enough love it will make what is called the French death yodel, a kind of ululating yodeling. It is also a very protective breed, especially when it comes to the females of things they care for, particularly their own young.

Another similarity to its English cousin is that it does very well in staying and living in small areas and spaces. Thus this makes a great companion and pet who live in small apartments or even condos. They are quite comfortable being inactive a majority of the time. They still do need their dose of exercise, and it is recommended that a daily walk of around thirty minutes should suffice. This ability to stay indoors for a long time can make this as one of the ultimate indoor dogs.

The dog has a snub nose and fairly compact airway due to its size. These physical features make it difficult for this breed to properly regulate its temperature in extreme temperatures. As such, many French bullies have died due to extreme weather and temperature conditions, and it is recommended that they live in more temperate environments and climates.

The breed is not very long lived, averaging about eight to ten years in terms of life span. Thus care and maintenance is really needed to maximize its life span if you want one. Most conditions it will develop are related to the eyes when it gets on in years.

Thus this article has outlined a bit of basic information about what you need to know about this type of dog. Prior to your final decision, do make additional research to galvanize your choice for a new pet and companion.
