​Breeders are responsible for the health, temperament, and type they create and share with others and that they pass down to future breeders. They are genetic engineers, planning breeding's and twisting genes to achieve that look, personality, movement, and so on that is so desirable, and is something that shouldn’t taken lightly. This starts with health testing. The breeder’s job is to take the health test results, and consider them in the larger picture of breed type and temperament and try to make the best decision they can and attempt to not double up on less than ideal results in hopes to better the breed.

​​In general, the Frenchie is more lapdog than a jogging partner. Routine exercise is still recommended, but use caution: this breed can easily overheat due to its short, stubby nose and potential airway problems. Daily exercise is important, but don't overdo it.

A high-quality dog food appropriate to the dog’s age (puppy, adult, or senior) will have all the nutrients the breed needs.​ Recommended daily amount: 1 to 1.5 cups of high-quality dry food a day, divided into two meals.

​​French Bulldogs are fairly easy to groom and need only an occasional brushing to keep their coat healthy. They are average shedders. Begin grooming your Frenchie at a young age and teach your puppy to stand on a table or floor to make this experience easier on both of you.
