French Bulldog Personality


Read More
Read Less

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.

    Montana came for a consultation for training. She was very thorough and answered all of our questions. I highly recommend, we are so excited to start our training for our dog. We just had our 2nd training session, and I can't believe how much better our dog is behaving and minding us. Montana is just amazing. If you need training for your puppy/dog this is definitely the way to go. We have completed our one on one training and are moving into group training. I can’t praise all of the trainers we have worked with enough. Montana, Amber, Reina, Red - they are all absolutely amazing. Our precious Newfydoodle Ruby took to training so well and I give all the credit to the excellent trainers. If you are looking for training for your dog these are the people to call you will love them and so will your precious pup.

    We’ve only just started platinum training for my stubborn 3 year old French bulldog, and two weeks in my boy is already following new commands both on and off leash. We still have a long way to go, but Montana has been nothing but professional, prompt, and thorough in walking me thru all the steps she takes to achieve the desired end result. We will miss her immensely as she embarks on a new, self owned professional training venue down in Georgia. Thank you for being so wonderful!

    We have been really happy with Elite dog training. We have 2 muts. We have a 11 year old and an 2 year old and they are learning a lot. Parker is excellent with both dogs and has helped us learn a lot as well. We have really seen a significant improvement in the dogs already. We would highly recommend Parker and Elite training!

    Wonderful experience today with Montana from Elite..communicates clearly, knowledgable, and she is a friendly, kind person. The training is best price I have found for in home and classes. They offer service and obedience. She works individually with the dogs abilities. I am excited to have my first training.

    Lulu had training with Julia today. Julia is so good with her and I feel like she is progressing. My husband and I are very impressed with Julia’s knowledge and especially her patience with our sweet baby. Looking forward to next week’s lesson! Training with Julia again today! She is so helpful with teaching Lulu’s momma and daddy what they need to be doing to aid in Lulu’s training.

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 Knoxville, TN 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.
