French Bulldog implies that it is from France, right? Hence, either yes or no. Before the industrial revolution, it appears that women in lace factories in the 1800s in England, specifically in Nottingham, warmed their laps with a tiny dog.

Numerous of these canines were Toy Bulldogs or little dogs.

Several of the lace workers who were laid off as the demand for lacemakers in the factories started to decline emigrated to Normandy with their tiny bulldogs. These little dogs quickly gained popularity among the Parisian women who worked in the leisure sector. Evidently, attracting customers involved walking with a little bulldog on a leash.

With some helpful crossbreeding with native French dogs, the little bulldogs established themselves as a distinct breed and gained enormous popularity in France.

What Kind of Dogs Are Frenchies?

The Frenchie is a little dog that is between 11 and 13 inches tall and under 28 pounds in weight. Its upright, bat-like ears are one of its distinguishing characteristics.

The Boston Terrier, another breed that resembles a bulldog, also has upright ears. On the other hand, the English Bulldog’s ears droop.

Moreover, the weight of an English bulldog is typically twice as that of a French bulldog and they have short, straight hair.

The Frenchie sheds somewhat, yet enough to prevent it from being a hypoallergenic dog. You might not want to get a French bulldog if you have a dog allergy.

The brindle, cream, white, and black are the most popular hues for the Frenchie’s coat. They typically come in a mix of these hues as well as piebald.

They are born with a naturally short or nonexistent tail. What little tail it does have may hang straight down, look stumpy, or otherwise be damaged.
