What is the most rare French bulldog color?
Merle French bulldogs are the most unique and strange coat color. We have a merle (also called Harlequin) Dachshund. My husband absolutely loves this coat. We noticed that it is indeed something rather rare because people often stop us in the street to ask for more information. A merle dog will have fur spotted with hundreds of markings usually colored in dark brown or black. The color that dominates is usually cream, white or fawn all mixed with other darker colors. Our dog is cream and black which is an accepted color for a Dachshund. Do not adopt or buy a merle puppy without a genetic warranty as these dogs tend to have more health issues than most.
What Human Food Can French Bulldogs Eat?
Please stay away from human food. French bulldogs have sensitive stomachs and tend to have some food allergies. You should keep them on a strict diet to avoid health issues and farts. Scroll down to understand why it is important to manage your dog’s farting when you own a Frenchie.
Why Do French Bulldogs Sit Funny?
French bulldogs prefer to splay their legs rather than be in a proper canine sitting position. Our dog prefers to let it all hang out, her tiny back legs are barely used and she seems to sit on her back more than her butt. But that’s because she’s a long sausage dog. Just let your French bulldog be their best selves. If they want to sit funny, chalk it up to a breed quirk and that’s it!
Why Are French Bulldogs So Popular?
These furry couch potatoes are beloved pets. French bulldogs are low energy, great in small apartments and comfortable with kids and families. French bulldogs are most definitely having a moment. They snore, they fart but they are still one of the most adorable little pups around! The breed is consistently in the top 10 most popular dog breeds in the United States.
Why do French Bulldogs fart so much?
But wait…what’s that stinky smell? Is it a stealth fart from your Frenchie again? These little buggers are known to be consummate farters. French bulldogs, just like English bulldogs, tend to have sensitive stomachs. They stuff their faces very fast on top of it so this means more air in and smelly farts out.
Do French bulldogs have smelly farts?
Yes, smelly and gassy are words that perfectly define Frenchies. In most cases, this foul habit is not a sign of a health issue. Farting Frenchies can be helped by a change in diet or a new food bowl that slows down their chowing.
Why is my French bulldog surprised by its own fart?
Some dog breeds fart more than others. French bulldogs are one of those breeds. However, most dogs tend to let silent but deadly farts out. Occasionally your pup will rip an audible one. That’s when the surprise kicks in. Every time our dog does that at home, we always end up cramped from laughter. Our dog sometimes gets scared of her own farts. At this point, the only logical theory I have is that the sound scares them. The *real* one I wish was true is that they are ashamed and trying to place blame on someone else by distancing themselves from the situation.
