The start 😂😂 “Their not in it for the money” yep! The amount of people that like to yell that at you too
Thank you so much this was so helpful my frenchie is 4 months old and somehow finds his way up on the coffee table and jumps off, so now I know he needs to be careful!♡
Yes- watch the jumping! I’m so happy you found this video helpful 😊
I have two French Bulldogs and you’re speaking a lot of sense 😊😊👍👍
Ahhh I cannot even imagine two Rocco’s right now, i know your hands are full and they are the best of friends. Thank you for watching!
aquatic veterinarians are invisible even to other vets but I promise you they exist
Well, the first thing to know is that you don't actually "own a Frenchie", it's more of an "arrangement", wherein you try to get the little guys cooperation....lol😂😂
😂😂😂
Very nice
Thank you!
How is your Frenchie doing?
Do you have to wipe them every time they poop since they can’t clean themselves?
No, I don’t need to wipe Rocco and only do like 15% of the time where his stool is soft and may hang a little out his butt.
Getting my first in couple days he’s a little older six months blue rindle your video helps a lot how do you deal with bathing ?
I bathe Rocco approximately once a month! He’s a really silly boy so he doesn’t seem to mind too much and then tries to attack the towel and get the zoomies afterwards lol. They are silly and all have their own personality so you have to figure out what works best. I do it myself but you could always take them to the groomers as an alternative and make someone else do it.
tldr; If you have stairs, don't get a Frenchie.
I find feeding my frenchie lamb kibble she has ALOT LESS gas
Rocco barely has gas anymore on Purina and when he does, it doesn’t really smell. It was worse as a puppy!
I know your a dog/pet professional but maybe you haven't had your franchie long enough to know this yet. They love/need exercise to get out that energy. Short walks several times a week helps. Never in the heat though. Think fall and winter and night time. I live in Cali so that is what I do. Of course, if you live in a cooler climate use your judgement as far as weather but NEVER hot and NEVER a long walk. We go on a 15 minute walks about 3 to 4 times a week when weather permits. Also, be mindful of their little short legs. We walk much faster than their little short legs. So they will be running or walking very fast and their breathing can be compromised. Look at your baby and adjust accordingly. They love water but only shallow water. Think baby pool. Require lots of vet visits related to ears and skin, heavy on the skin issues at least for my male. He has lots of food allergies that manifest as skin issues. I have 3 frenchies. While they do pass gas it is NOT frequent as I have them on a very high quality food. Red Barn that is essentially air dried meat and zignature dry kibble to stretch the red barn because it is great for allergies and it doesn't have a lot of fillers that are cancer causing to our pups. Very important to me. But that being said it is very expensive and not accessible to everyone. We tried raw but my pups didn't care for it too much, unfortunately. Not our raw because it doesn't have all the nutrients they need but pet store raw infused with the nutrients they need which is also expensive but way better than dept store or grocery store food or even traditional pet store food like Petco or Petsmart food. We go to Ben's Bark place which is a small place that sells dog and cat food of exceptional quality. I am saying unfortunately due to experience and learning that dog foods as mentioned before contain a lot of carcinogens. Bulldogs of all types require great care. I have owned American, English, and now French. While bulldog is in the name they all have differences but also have commonalities. Expensive to buy and expensive to keep. Hope this helps new owners and those interested in purchasing.
🫶🏻 Adorable 🐾 Frenchie ❣️
Thank you! ❤️
Do frenchies sheds a lot?
YES- they can. People think because they are short haired they don’t shed but that’s not true. Trying to brush as often as possible is how I can try and get around that!
great informational video Dogter
sry to be the grinch - but there is exactly one thing to know before you get a french Bulldog: DO NOT GET A FRENCH BULLDOG. Other than that - get insurance and good luck. This is not about their character but these health issues a serious. And I mean serious. Last week we had 5 frenchies on our ward after Spinal disc surgery and this summer just started and we had the first hyperthermic brachycephalic incidents. Some of our patients had spinal surgery done 4 times. And please believe me its expensive and a torture for the dog.
Not the Grinch at all- I’ve done extensive research and do everything I can to prevent some of the issues. I also knew to get insurance right away and to get him the airway surgery to help! All you’re doing is informing people and that’s perfectly fine! As long as people know the risks and what they are getting themselves into, no matter what breed of dog.
this is so helpful and LOL we named our puppy rocky, aka rocco, aka alap rocky (as late as possible). love your tips and will be checking out your other vids to help raise our 9 week puppy correctly!
Thank you so much for watching, I’m glad it was helpful! Congrats to you guys and welcome to the Frenchie club! 🐾
I can't believe people pay money to get dogs bred to be disabled on purpose
Even then, most of these on the list are pretty stable incomes!
I’m not gonna lie I had to re-watch the video because your dog is extremely adorable and every time I saw him I got distracted and forgot what the video was about. He is so adorable and playful. Thank you for this very helpful video. I am getting my dog God willing this Saturday so this video helps me to get everything ready.
Thank you so much for watching! Haha he is pretty adorable if I don’t say so myself so I completely understand 😂❤️
Where did you buy that play pen at? Very cute.
It’s on my Amazon link provided in the description box!
My frenchie also gets the zoomies quite often. She cracks me up and Flys through the air into my bigger dogs bed. She's crazy with a personality to match.
Their personality is what sold me. Rocco makes me crack up every single day ❤️
They often have serious breathing problems because of thier short snouts.
Yes they do. Research is SO IMPORTANT when it comes to these breeds.
Spay and neuter!
What brand of dog food do you feed your frenchie?
Great Video! My daughter just got a new Frenchie family member. I will be forwarding this video to her. Thank you for the Great Information!
Thank you for watching, I’m glad you found it helpful and thank you for spreading my video to her! Congrats on the new family member! 🎊
We just got a 2 year old frenchie ❤ the last owner fed him cesar brand food, can we change to a different brand?
Me not fully focusing on the screen but still being attentive to what is being said, so I was sat watching for minutes thinking her top said ‘PIMP’. 😂 The world is so loose with it’s morals today so that would not have even seemed out of place… 👀
Oh wow 😂😂😂😂 I never noticed that!
@@dogtorlindsey9340 Heyy thanks for replying. Just want to say thanks for the upload, you helped me to decided that yes I will take on a Frenchie! Her name is Pookie (or Pucci like the brand😅) and she's been the best decision I've made for a while, all the best and once again thank you! Can't believe it's been two months already.
Try Rawhide Bones They Would Keep Rocko Occupied
Where'd You Buy The Pet Camer With The Treat Dispenser?I Saw 1 But It Was Light Grey Instead Of Black And White
He’s so cute and smart
Thank you! ❤️
I just got a lilac fawn he’s so cute he’s 12 weeks old and so crazy
I had a Boston terrier and dealt with with all this unfortunately she passed in January I miss her so much . I am getting a lilac tan French bulldog in June 🥰he’s adorable I am getting insurance
I just got me one thanks for the education. I appreciate you, sister.
You’re welcome, thank you for watching!!
God is blessing you & me w/ pure love I'll be 68 in May & I'm a new furr mom! My baby Star will be 1 in May & I call my husband 'daddy' after a 40 marriage. ❤
Hi, your video is greatly appreciated, new French bulldog owners definitely need to watch your video. Thank you!
would you say the pay for aquatic veterinarians would be similar to zoo vets? also do aquatic vets require extra school too?
My frenchie female, Dani, her but area seems to be very dark. She is 1. Is this normal?
I will be getting a frenchie in a few weeks, it’s great to hear from a “vet mom” I saw you used squish face paste over desitin, for the wrinkles. As of now do you still feel it is safer and as effective, considering the price difference? Thanks!
What about wildlife veterinarians how much do they earn?
Sister im confused between: veterinary; veterinary medicine ; veterinary science; animal science
Im having the hardest time crate training
Consistency, consistency! That’s the key!
My frenchie has been in labor for 24 hours now what should I do her first litter
What Color Are The Puppies?
Frenchies are the best ❤❤❤
Your video was amazing!!!!! Thank you so much!!!!!
What food do you feed ? I also work in the veterinary field ( not a vet) and getting a Frenchie soon.
He's a handsome ! Yes train him you won't have them ruling your home. 😂
I have a 4 month old and she woke up with a small hernia 😢 I'm scared 😢
Rocco is so cute, I adore frenchies.
I hope you have a great savings account because these dogs suffer their entire lives from several major health issues.
Shut yo negative ass up
Depends on the breeder. Not alWays the case
So glad I found your video! I signed up for their trip to Turkey this June 2024! I’m so excited☺️
SO PERFECT!!!
Rocco is literally so perfect and gorgeous
So True,Rocko Is So Perfect
