Quick facts:

• Life Span: 10–13 years
• Height: 11–13 inches
• Weight: Under 28 pounds
• Coat: Smooth coat

Trademark physical features:

We love them for those perked up ears that are the breed’s trademark feature, along with their stocky build, large heads, flattened snout and heavy wrinkles. They’re muscular, compact and insanely adorable.

Personality:

French Bulldogs are warm, affectionate and love people. They do well in a variety of environments — with singles, couples, families and they do particularly well in cities because they don’t need too much exercise. They are wildly good natured and easy to be around if you can get over some loud breathing and general laziness from time to time.
