Learning how to care for a French Bulldog puppy is exciting, but it takes the right routine, patience, and lots of love to raise a healthy, happy Frenchie. French Bulldogs are undeniably adorable, but raising a healthy, happy Frenchie requires the right knowledge and care. Whether you’re a first-time puppy parent or welcoming your third furry friend, this guide will walk you through everything you need to know.
1. Feeding Your Frenchie
Frenchie puppies need a high-quality, protein-rich diet. Feed your pup 3-4 small meals per day until 6 months old, then reduce to 2 meals daily. Always consult your vet about recommended food brands and portion sizes.
2. Potty Training & Routine
Start housebreaking early by taking your puppy outside every 2-3 hours, especially after eating, sleeping, or playing. Use positive reinforcement like treats and praise. Stick to a daily routine — consistency builds trust.
3. Socialization & Exercise
French Bulldogs are social and need regular interaction. Safely expose your pup to people, other pets, and new environments early. Gentle walks and playtime are enough — Frenchies don’t need intense workouts.
4. Health Checkups & Vaccinations
Visit your vet within the first week of bringing your puppy home. Follow the recommended vaccination schedule and deworming plan. Ask about microchipping and pet insurance too.
5. Grooming & Hygiene
Frenchies have short coats but still need weekly brushing to manage shedding. Clean their ears and folds regularly to prevent infections. Use a gentle puppy shampoo for monthly baths.
6. Crate Training & Sleeping
Use a crate as a safe space for your puppy. It helps with potty training and prevents chewing when you’re not around. Make it cozy with a soft bed and chew toy.
French Bulldogs thrive on love, structure, and care. If you’re considering adopting one of our Frenchie puppies, we’re here to help guide you every step of the way.
