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’re about halfway through our 1:1 training sessions and I couldn’t be happier with our experience so far. Laydon and Kristen have both been absolutely wonderful — kind, professional, and extremely knowledgeable. The progress my pup, Pepper, has already made has blown me away, and I can truly see the difference in her behavior and confidence. Every session is very productive and also a lot of fun, which makes the whole process so enjoyable. They explain things clearly, are patient, and genuinely care about both the dogs and their owners. I’m really looking forward to completing the rest of our 1:1 sessions and starting group sessions soon. I would highly recommend Laydon and Kristen at Dog Training Elite to anyone looking for excellent dog trainers!

    Elite training transformed my biting puppy into a well-trained happy little companion. I nearly gave her back to the APA but Jenny intervened and rescued both me and my little pup. We’ve made it through the program and I am so happy that I never surrendered her. Jenny’s first visit made the biggest difference and it was downhill from there!!

    Great company, trainers and results! All the trainers we worked with were very knowledgeable, professional and helped us to make significant improvements in our beloved pup’s behaviors! He went from slightly reactive and very anxious around new people to being able to walk through a crowded area on command. Most importantly, they trained us on best ways to continue to communicate with our pup so that the training never stops. We especially enjoyed working with Jocy, would recommend her to anyone!

    Jenny at Dog Training Elite is fantastic. Her training approach is clear, effective, and tailored to my dog’s specific behaviors. She took the time to explain the “why” behind each technique and made sure we felt confident continuing the training on our own. We started seeing results in our very first session, and we’re so grateful for her expertise. Highly recommend!

    Working with Mike through DTE's psychiatric service dog training has been such a positive experience for both me and my dog Sugar. From day one, she’s been completely comfortable with him, and it really shows in how quickly she picks up what he teaches. Mike takes the time to explain every small detail and why it matters, which has helped me become more confident and consistent as a handler. He also gently holds us accountable for practicing between sessions, and that structure has made a big difference in our progress. I’m genuinely very happy with the training and the growth I’m seeing in my dog. Highly recommend Mike if you’re looking for someone knowledgeable, patient, and truly invested in your success.

    Marshall is great. My dog Toby took to him instantly and he's doing great. I appreciate the direction and the tips to help make Toby and I a success. Thank you.

    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!

    Michael has been incredible to work with and learn from! My dog, Gio, absolutely adores him. He has made me feel so much more comfortable handling Gio & working towards our goal of becoming a therapy dog. Thank you DTE!!

    We’ve had a fantastic experience with Dog Training Elite Boston. The trainers are incredibly dedicated and clearly care about both the dogs and their owners. We received thoughtful, personalized feedback at every step, along with practical training strategies that were easy to understand and apply at home. The process gave us and our dog so much more confidence, and we now feel like we have real tools to handle situations that used to feel overwhelming. Highly recommend to anyone looking for effective, supportive, and results-driven dog training.

    Cindy and Kyle were great to work with. DTE started working with me in July. They came with me to Saving Grace in Wake Forest to make sure we were adopting the right dog to train to be a service animal. Cindy and Kyle was very responsive to all communications and was a pleasure to work with. DTE has an amazing business concept that will put their competitors out of business since they offer their training packages at a substantially lower price than what you would to pay to other companies. Thank you Cindy for your amazing work

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 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.
