French Bulldog Personality

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.

    After searching for a dog trainer I came upon Dog Training Elite. Danielle returned my call promptly, answered all my questions, was incredibly patient and easy to talk to. I have a toy poodle named Blu that tends to react to people and other dogs. We attended our first group class and Blu did amazing. I was very impressed with how organized the class was and supportive everyone there was. Don’t hesitate, call Danielle! You will not be disappointed!

    Great program! The instructions provided excellent one-on-one training that really helped me learn how to work with my dog. And the group classes are a great way to reinforce what was learned.

    Our dog Daisy went through training with Danielle and I can’t begin to describe how much I would recommend E Collar training to others. She is now ready for anything that could come her way and the peace of mind that we have when taking her on different adventures is all we could have hoped for from training and more. Her recall, obedience, patience and more are all beyond her years and it’s very much thanks to Danielle and her skills as a trainer. Daisy gets so excited when we take her E Collar out to put on because she knows it’s time for an adventure, car ride, walk, or even just some errands she can join in on! Thank you Danielle + Dog Training Elite!

    Highly recommend Dog Training Elite RI! Danielle has been fantastic to work with, and our dogs absolutely love her. Our puppy has transformed with this structured training and benefits so much from the group classes. Before starting training he was so reactive to other dogs and would pull to try and go meet them, and now he’s much more balanced and understands how to behave neutrally around other dogs. I never imagined he could sit quietly just a few feet from a whole group of other dogs in class while we all practiced training exercises. If you listen to Danielle’s instructions, and stay consistent with training and coming to class, then you will see results in no time.

    I can’t say enough great things about Dog Training Elite of Rhode Island! Danielle has been an incredible trainer and gave me all the tools, guidance, and resources I needed to work with my dog, Austin. Thanks to her training, Austin has gained so much confidence, improved obedience, and developed a stronger bond with me. He’s now well-behaved both at home and in public, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Highly recommend Danielle and Dog Training Elite to anyone looking to transform their dog’s behavior and relationship!

    Danielle has been a joy to work with! Kind, understanding to my dog and me. My dog, Frannie, wants to impress because when she does well, Danielle awards with praise and love. Instructional, clear concise direction. I was very nervous to attend my first group session; Danielle managed a group of anxious owners and some reactive dogs (mine can be!) beautifully. I look forward to remaining group sessions! Worth every penny!

    Working with Danielle at Dog Training Elite Rhode Island has been life-changing for me and Callie. Callie had some training before, but with Danielle things finally started to make sense and move forward consistently. The biggest difference has been the confidence Danielle gave me to guide Callie and really be part of her success. I’m so grateful we found her—if you’re committed and want real results, she’s the one to call!

    Harper( my one year old Lab) and I are having the best experience! She has a tendency to be over excited about people and dogs. Danielle has helped us be better citizens. We had our first group lesson and I couldn’t be more pleased with our work. Harper thinks Danielle is marvelous and so do I. I think my relationship with Harper is so much better. When I was looking at training for Harper and me, I did a ton of research and Dog Training Elite kept coming up and I’m so happy to have found them and Danielle.

    Elite Dog Training is the best! The owner Danielle is great with dogs.We saw immediate improvements with our dog’s behavior. She is so calm and listens to commands immediately.

    We hired Danielle to help us train our 1 y/o GSD, specifically with her fear reactivity towards other dogs. Danielle was very nice and professional right off the bat and quickly called me to set up an appointment once I had inquired. She came to our house and evaluated Olive and we started training a week later. Since Olive was already pretty familiar with obedience, we mainly focused on her staying calm in situations where other dogs may be present. Today we had our first group class with 16 other dogs and their owners. I was nervous to say the least but Olive did great and her reactivity was kept at a minimum! This is only the beginning, as Olive still has a long way to go but we are impressed with her progress thus far and we are excited for the classes to come. We would definitely recommend Danielle to others!

    Like so many others we have had an incredible life changing experience with Danielle. We moved from TN where we lived in a rural area into the city of Providence where there are a ton of dogs and Bean would lunge and bark at everyone and everything that moved. I was so anxious every time I had to take her out. Within two lessons I started feeling more confident in her and she started feeling more confident in herself. Danielle was so reassuring that she would get where she needed to be and even though an ecollar was a part of training she really emphasized praise which Bean really responds to. I love seeing her so proud of herself on our walk down Blackstone (a place we could have never gone before training). We graduated from private classes last week and had our first group class today (and I do mean we because I think I needed to learn more than Bean). Danielle prepped us well that she might struggle in the group at first but to stay the course and by the end of class she was in a down position with dogs 5 feet away from her on a loose leash. I could not have dreamed she would be where she is when we started. Truly so thankful for Danielle and would highly recommend her as a trainer!!

    Danielle is a great trainer. She worked with my dog one-on-one for several sessions at my home and even brought her dogs to work with my dog on a couple of days, which was very helpful. My pup graduated to group classes today, which is exciting. So far, the program has been beneficial, and I would recommend using Dog Training Elite.

    Danielle has been a life changer! Our Stellina a rescue came with many behavior issues. We experienced two other trainers prior Danielle and we were loosing hope. With our one on one training with Danielle and attending the group sessions Stellina has changed significantly. Danielle's expertise can make a difference for you and your furry friend as well!!!

    My experience with dog training elite has been amazing. It's in just 5 at home sessions. I noticed a huge change in how my dogs attitude, attention and personality changed. I recently started the group training, and he's taken to it Amazingly, I would definitely recommend dog training elite, to anybody that ever asks me, about dog training

    We have used other trainers at great expense with our dogs in the past and never had the results we’ve gotten from Danielle. She is outstanding. We adopted a rescue dog 3 years ago with severe anxiety issues. It had gotten to the point where we simply didn’t have people over anymore because of the excessive barking and aggressive behavior. Walks were anything but relaxing, the constant tugging, aggression towards other dogs and humans made it very stressful. We are now four weeks into our private lessons and he is a different dog and a pleasure to have in our family. Danielle comes to your house to train your dog, but more importantly she trains the humans in the house, because let’s face it, we are the issue, not the dog. Like any good training program, you must do the daily 20 minute homework with your pet, but she gives easy to follow instructions and is available for advice between sessions if you have questions. For consistency, I would recommend that all adults who live with the dog attend training sessions, she has always been able to make this work with our schedules. We will be moving into the next phase of group lessons shortly and we are very excited. A month ago the thought of entering a group lesson with unfamiliar dogs and humans would have been anxiety provoking. This is no longer the case. Danielle also has an excellent temperament for training, she is non-judgmental when teaching humans and has extensive personal experience with reactive dogs. I’d give her a 6 out of 5 if I could - she’s that good - and worth every penny. She has been such a positive influence on our household.

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 Providence / New Bedford, RI 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.
