French Bulldog Personality


Read More

French bulldogs are known for being even-tempered and playful. Because of their size, they can do well in smaller homes and apartments, making them an ideal companion for city life.

Two of the best qualities of French bulldogs are their adaptability and ability to get along well with children. However, while these traits may be innate, it's still an excellent idea to enroll a dog in training to help build their socialization skills and teach them basic commands for safety.

French bulldogs instinctively bark to alert you when strangers are at the door. Training can teach your dog how to respond appropriately to avoid excessive barking and alerts whenever the mail or delivery man drops off a package. This training can be vital in an apartment setting to maintain peace in a shared complex. While they may not need much exercise due to their small size and stature, training your dog to walk on a leash is still a good idea. Walking is a great opportunity for your dog to get outside and discover new things. Your dog may make new friends with both people and canines.

Training can help make this experience safe and fun for you and your dog. Because French bulldogs are friendly, you'll want to train them to socialize appropriately with people and dogs that may be less open to meeting new friends.

As your Frenchie will probably enjoy ample time indoors, it's also great to train them to communicate when they need to go potty. Accidents happen, and dogs often need to be trained on what to do when they need to go to avoid having them.

    We attended the reactive dog training for my 9month old Morkie today. She is not aggressive but very reactive to new dog. This was one of the best things we have done. Very informative and saw improvement during the class. It’s not the dog, it’s us (he humans) that need trained.

    I adopted a shelter dog who is settling in to his first forever home. He’s loving and sweet but becomes very aggressive with other dogs. We are one week into a daily training program with Dog Training Elite and already there is marked improvement. Anika, Josh, and staff give loving, structured and consistent training. They also work with me to extend that consistent training to home. I have nothing but great compliments to DTE for helping my good dog to be better.

    Josh always does such a great job with Chance! He picks up on the smallest (but super meaningful) cue Chance gives and tells me what that cue means and how to handle it! Highly recommend!

    We are working on a therapy test and Elijah gave excellent instructions throughout. He reviewed what we’d be doing during session and gave excellent feedback as we worked thru the items…. Thank you Elijah for a wonderful session!!!

    Elijah Turner was awesome. Explained things clearly, was patient, and even answered some preliminary questions about some stuff I want to teach Winnie (the Poochon) in the future. Winnie is comfortable and happy around him as well, of course. 😀 (On a side note: I know I tend to ramble a bit while asking questions and trying to process new information because it's sometimes difficult to organize my thoughts due to brain fog. He didn't make me feel awkward about it at all, which I'm extremely thankful for.)

    What an amazing experience it has been training my dog, Peppa, with this incredible and highly qualified team! I noticed a HUGE change in Peppa—not only in her behavior, but also in her confidence and ability to respond. They trained her with so much care, kindness, patience, and genuine understanding of dogs. You can truly tell how passionate they are about what they do, and they always treated Peppa with respect and compassion. I’m so grateful for everything they’ve done for her and for us. The results have been beyond what I expected, and I would highly recommend this team to anyone looking for knowledgeable, caring, and effective dog trainers. Peppa is a happier, more confident dog because of them! ❤️

    Anika, Josh, Annie and Elijah are a DREAM TEAM. Each has taken such care and kindness in helping my tiny 6 pound fur baby grow and learn in ways that support her specific needs, both physical and psychological. I could not be more pleased with our time at Elite and only wish we came sooner! She gets to enjoy so much newfound confidence, freedom and security through their training model and each trainer took time to help me integrate and guide me through the process of continuing the work at home. I love these guys!!

    We can’t thank Doug, Josh and all the trainers at DTE enough for the incredible work they do with our new family member, Remy. She struggles with reactive and aggressive behaviors, but their calm, patient approach and deep understanding of dog behavior has made all the difference. They gave us practical, easy to follow training techniques that have helped her make incredible progress. Especially grateful for the coaching and encouragement we receive as her handlers. We couldn’t be happier with the team’s expertise, kindness and dedication - it was made all the difference. Highly recommended the DTE Team!

Safety and Health

French bulldogs don't require much mental stimulation, making them easy pets around the house. Regardless, it’s still vital that they know what parts of your home are safe to explore and what areas they need to avoid.

Proper training can help your dog learn to be alone and relieve stress when you are away from home. You'll also want to be confident your dog won't run out into busy streets when you open the front door, so sit and down commands are vital.

Sit, come, heel, and down are also vital to their safety around water. Because of their short legs and body shape, French bulldogs cannot swim without assistance. They must listen to you whenever you are around pools, lakes, or oceans.

Because of their face shape, French bulldogs can also be prone to breathing problems. Training can help to take the stress out of vet visits. It can also help you identify times when your pet is communicating that something is wrong so that you can help support their health and well-being.

Choosing the proper French bulldog training in Indianapolis, IN should offer the support you need to work with your dog. At Dog Training Elite, we focus on keeping your dog safe and happy. We use an electronic vibrating collar rather than a shock collar to reinforce concepts and keep them focused. We want dogs to feel supported and excited to learn concepts to help them lead a happy and safe life with you! Investing in quality training and socialization will help you and your dog navigate new environments together.
