Information On French Bulldog Breeders

By Ruth Jackson


The dog breeding industry has become very lucrative over the years, prompting entry of many breeders. Some of these breeders are barely experienced or knowledgeable about the exercise of breeding dogs. Usually, all that attracts them to the industry is the money that is associated with it. As a result, it can be very challenging to find good French bulldog breeders. One has to do some research in order to find good breeders.

For those who live within the United States, a good way to find a responsible breeder is to go to dog shows. Many specialist breeders attend dog shows to showcase their dogs and to find new clients. The American Kennel Club marketplace is also another useful resource from where one can find information on breeds.

Additional information can be found through resources provided by the parent club of the breed. Most breed parent clubs have websites from where one can access more information about the breed. AKC also has clubs in various locations in the United States and one can visit it to find more information. It is usually better to do some research before approaching a breeder so as to be able to ask the right questions and to gauge the answers given.

As stated above, not all breeders are legitimate. Other are just interested in making money, and they care less about breed standards and other qualities. Normally, they hold full-time jobs elsewhere and only do breeding when they are free. Such people pay little attention to clients and they never have any puppies readily-available for sale. It is advisable to avoid people of that kind and instead focus more on breeders who have experience and knowledge in the science of breeding dogs.

One should schedule a visit to the kennel or home of the breeder where they conduct their dog breeding operations. While visiting, one should ask to see at least one parent of the puppies. The purpose of this is to develop an idea about the appearance and temperament of the puppies when they are grown. This should influence the decision in some way.

One should request to see the conditions around the premises to have an idea of how the breeding is done. The facility should be odor-free and clean. In the same way, the puppies should be clean and well-fed. One should avoid puppies that are under-fed as indicated by protruding rib cages. Coughing, lethargy, and runny eyes or nose are all signs of disease that one should look out for.

The interaction between the breeder and the dogs should also be observed carefully. Dogs that are taken good care of should not shy away from the breeder or strangers. They should be friendly and outgoing with everybody. Good puppies do not appear withdrawn or too aggressive with littermates, people, or other pets.

One should ensure that the breeder provides documents related to the health of the parents of the puppies as well as the puppies themselves. They should also provide information regarding genetic diseases to which the breed is prone. When health screening is done, certificates are issued as proof. These certificates should be availed.
