Welcome to my web site. My name is Fran Evans Mayes and I am honored you stopped by.
Allow me to introduce you to the Amazin Frenchies. I know, once introduced, you
too will fall in love with these amazing little dogs just as we did.
I have included information about the French Bulldog, for those new to the breed, as well as pictures of our Frenchies. (That is our favorite part). I hope you enjoy your stay and return often to check out our updates.
GENERAL INFORMATION
The French Bulldog is an fun-loving, active, intelligent, ready to please small dog. They are gentle, affectionate, obedient (sometimes) and very responsive. They enjoy being with their people and are true companions. They do not require a large amount of grooming, but they generally like the brushing and attention. If you are lucky enough to be loved by a Frenchie, he will make it his priority to be the center of your attention. They are clowns and they love to make you laugh. A Frenchie is as happy with a child as with an older person, but he is happiest sharing a chair with his special person.
Frenchies come in a variety of colors, the most common colors are brindle, cream/fawn and pied which is a mostly white dog with patches of color. A Frenchie can be a wonderful addition to the family no matter what color he happens to wear.
We do not offer any of the "designer" colors many people are
interested in. The original colors of the Frenchie were brindle, pied and
the black masked fawn. Some of the "designer" colors are carried
on recessive genes and those genes can also carry health concerns.
Frenchies can be happy being apartment dogs but can be equally happy in the country. Just don't expect them to actually "do" anything except maybe nap in the sun. They have been bred over the years to be companions and they do that job very well. They see everyone as "friend", therefore, they do not make good guard dogs. Add all this up and you get one amazing little dog.
There are some health concerns that mostly stem from having a "dwarf" type body, but in general they are a healthy breed and live approximately 10 years. They do not tolerate the heat well, and there can be breathing problems. Yes, they snore - quite loudly at times.
