Decorative dogs with a fighting character, French bulldogs, are very popular in Russia and abroad. Charming pets combine courage and devotion. Their colors are quite diverse.

White French bulldogs are extremely rare, which attracts the attention of dog breeders from around the world.

Breed features

The ancestors of the "French" were considered to be Molossians - dogs, from which all the dog-shaped ones came. Historically, the first bulldogs were bred in medieval England. Brave dogs with an "iron" grip were used to persecute cattle. The ancestors of the "French" were larger and more enduring. Officially, this breed originated in the 19th century.

According to one hypothesis, miniature pets were brought to France from England. However, French breeders claim that charming dogs were bred on their land. This breed instantly won the love and respect of local residents. Brave pets have become excellent Pied Piper and have appeared in almost every family of workers. The "French" arrived in Russia at the beginning of the 20th century and acted as a fashionable "accessory" for representatives of the intelligentsia.

Today, charming dogs are very popular among breeders of different ages and social status.

Description

Despite their miniature, French bulldogs are strong and hardy dogs. The characteristic features of the breed include the following:

  • stocky, muscular torso;
  • short powerful limbs;
  • wide chest
  • massive square-shaped head;
  • “Flattened” muzzle with symmetrical folds;
  • upturned nose;
  • expressive eyes;
  • thick short tail;
  • well developed jaw;
  • protruding ears that have the shape of a "bat";
  • smooth shiny coat.

Adult "Frenchman" grows up to 35 cm. Males, as a rule, are larger than females. Pets live 10-12 years. French bulldog puppies are born blind and deaf. The features of an adult dog begin to appear from 4-6 months.

And also at this age, the color is formed - the animal's fur acquires a saturated shade.

Advantages and disadvantages

According to the breed standard, a pet can be brindle, fawn, and spotted. One of the rarest colors is white. It is valid only if the edging of the nose, eyelids and lips is black. "French" with white fur are allowed to participate in exhibitions and competitions. And also white dogs include dogs, on the coat of which there are 1 or 2 dark spots.

White French bulldogs look very impressive. Charming pets with white hair have several advantages. For example, a snow-white bulldog is quite rare, so it will no doubt attract the admiring glances of others. In addition, a pet of a bright color is quite noticeable and will not be lost on a walk. White French bulldogs (matching the standard) are very successful at exhibitions and achieve excellent results in competitions. Experts say that representatives of the white color are distinguished by excellent health.

However, a number of shortcomings in the "snowballs" is still present. These include the following nuances:

  • light wool quickly gets dirty and requires careful care;
  • dogs with white fur can have genetic diseases;
  • some individuals with blue eyes (albinos) suffer from congenital deafness;
  • with age, snow-white wool acquires a yellowish tint;
  • “French” with white wool should not eat foods that contribute to color changes (pumpkin, carrots and beets);
  • Bulldogs of this color are rare, so their cost is quite high.

Important! Other colors that do not fit the standard (black, blue, white-blue, brown and tricolor) are considered defective.

Character and education

"French" are inherent features of fighting dogs and at the same time they are peaceful animals. They get along well with children and faithfully serve adult owners. From the first days of appearance in the house, charming kids begin to explore the world and can taste furniture and shoes. Parenting a puppy must be dealt with from a "tender" age. The psyche of French bulldogs is stable. However, do not leave your pet alone for a long time.

"French" love attention and cannot stand separation from the owner. For dogs, this is a lot of stress. Bulldogs remember teams quite slowly, so the breeder needs to show perseverance and patience. With a competent approach, a miniature pet will quickly get used to the place, learn to relieve need outside the apartment and stop spoiling things. Representatives of this breed are devoted friends and excellent companions.

Care Rules

The French bulldog is ideal for keeping in a city apartment - it does not require a lot of space. The bed for the pet should be made of natural materials. Place it in a warm, dry place. Bulldogs do not tolerate drafts and easily catch a cold. The berth of the pet should not be in the bedroom or children's room, as due to the physiological characteristics of the nasopharynx, the pet snores during sleep.

White French bulldogs require careful grooming. The pet must be combed and washed regularly. In order for the dog's fur to have a rich brilliant shade, the breeder needs to purchase special shampoos and lotions. Particular attention is required to folds on the muzzle of the bulldog (sweat and dust accumulate in them). They must be cleaned with wet wipes and cotton pads.

It is enough to clean auricles 1-2 times a month. If you notice suspicious discharge and an unpleasant odor, the pet should be immediately shown to the veterinarian. The "French" are disdainful and like to pick up various objects on the street. This "hobby" threatens with problems with teeth. Careful monitoring is important for the pet’s oral cavity.

Walking with a bulldog is quite calm. The animal is not very active. In the heat and severe frosts of the "French" it is better not to walk.

Representatives of this breed have a difficult thermoregulation function.
