French Bulldogs are one of the most sensitive breeds. A great diet helps prevent skin and tummy troubles, plus other allergies.
Gently cooked, human-grade meals delivered to your door. It's our favorite way to feed a Frenchie.
An excellent approach once your Frenchie turns 6 months old. It's anti-inflammatory and can help with allergies and joint issues, which Frenchies are prone to.
Bone broth, probiotics, omega-3 and a joint supplement support healthy growth. Keep them up long-term for top-notch skin.
Meals arrive frozen, so thaw before serving. Choose lamb, turkey or beef.
Order and customize your puppy's plan with our link. Your Ethical Frenchie puppy whisperer can give you the details it asks for, like your pup's weight and age.
Order Spot & Tango →Never switch your puppy's food overnight. Every switch should be gradual.
Human-grade powdered food that takes about 5 minutes to prep.
Fresh food you can pick up locally.
At PetSmart & Petco
Raw food for pups 6 months and up.
We never recommend kibble, but if fresh food is out of budget, Farmina is the only kibble we trust.
A long-term must for Frenchies. Daily use keeps their skin in great shape and their immune system working properly.
Another long-term must. Glucosamine helps prevent hip and spinal disc issues.
Supports healthy digestion, gives an immunity boost and nourishes sensitive joints.
A great, optional addition. The Aller-Immune Bites already contain plenty of salmon oil.
For poops on the softer side. This pumpkin supplement firms things up fast.
These professional manipulators will beg every time the fridge opens (news flash, they're not hungry). Keeping them lean helps avoid health problems.
Stops them swallowing too much air (hello, gassiness) and prevents choking.
Any ceramic or stainless-steel bowl works, just skip plastic. Elevated matters on a dry-food diet.
24/7 fresh, flowing water. Is it boujee? Yes. Do they need it? Also yes.
Their least favorite time of the month. Everything here is picked for sensitive Bulldog skin. Some care is daily, some weekly, some monthly.
A leave-in conditioner that keeps skin and coat silky smooth.
A treat pad that sticks to the wall. Add peanut butter or yogurt and watch a bath hater turn into a chill cooperator. Great for ear cleaning and nail trims too.
Protects wrinkles and helps with tear stains.
Flat-faced breeds get dental disease faster, and those bat ears collect everything around them.
Your home needs a few things before it's fully puppy-proofed. Start with the top three, then pick a crate.
Their second favorite activity? Nap time. They adore this fluffy, snuggly bed.
Frenchies can hurt their backs and hips jumping off furniture. Put stairs by every couch and bed they're allowed on.
Puppies are curious, sometimes too curious. Use a playpen when they're unsupervised, never as punishment. Our team will walk you through playpen training.
Crate training is one of the most effective ways to potty train and keep your puppy safe. Three models at different prices; choose whichever works best for you.
Some puppies get anxious away from their siblings. A heat pack and heartbeat mimic littermates so they sleep comfortably.
A modern, fully transparent playpen that blends into your home.
Check in and toss a treat from your phone.
Teach them to ring when it's time to go out.
The trick to potty training is consistency and patience.
Keeps pads flat and in place.
Stops furniture chewing.
A tired puppy is a happy puppy. Combine chewing, mental-stimulation games and gentle activity.
Skip these. Frenchie backs are sensitive.
Frenchies are notorious for destroying toys in under 60 seconds. Kong is the only brand we've found tough enough to last.
Are you really a Frenchie parent if you don't own at least one ridiculous pajama?
Never walk your Frenchie on a collar. Collars are for style only, so pair a no-pull harness with a short, strong leash.
French Bulldogs have trouble regulating their body temperature and can overheat when it's hot. These are musts, even for a 60-second summer walk.
