Customer Reviews

WONDERFUL RESOURCE!
I have read and reread this book numerous times. I have owned Frenchies for nearly ten years and this is hands down the single best overall basics on the breed. The author presents important information in an engaging, straight forward manner and is a world renowned expert in Frenchies. If you are considering a frenchie or have recently added one to your family, this book will be an invaluable resource.

Read this before you get a French Bulldog!
This is definitely a must-have for anyone interested in French Bulldogs. It is invaluable for anyone new to the breed, explaining all of the concerns associated with owning a "frenchie". (It is especially good for the first-time dog owner, going over all of the basics of raising and caring for a puppy). It's also loaded with great photos, so if you're a frenchie-lover, buy this book!

Comprehensive and easy to follow.
This is a great book for any Frenchie owner. Unlike some books which claim to be breed specific but aren't this book contains lots of information on French Bulldogs. It covers housebreaking, Feeding, Grooming, Health and so much more. There are lots of great photos as well. I got this book shortly before getting my Frenchie, and it was so helpful. It's written in a way that someone new to the breed like me, or someone that is intreseted in a pet rather then a showdog can understand. This is a book written by a true Frenchie lover, for Frenchie lovers and newbies.
