French Bulldog puppies are very eager to please and friendly by their nature. They are gentle with humans despite their aggression with other dogs. However, you still need to take a lot of time to properly socialize your French Bulldog puppies with people and other pets. If you notice any signs of aggression towards humans then they need to be taken to a professional trainer right away.
To help socialize your puppy from an early age you should take them around other people and pet. In a public setting allow them to interact and play with strangers, but keep and establish your authority over the dog at all times. Dominance needs to be established early with this breed in order for your pet to be obedient later in life. You will find authority difficult to get later on if you don’t establish it early since French Bulldog puppies are extremely dominant. Proper socialization is also the key to helping your puppy develop an even temper.
It is also important when raising French Bulldog puppies that you get them their vaccinations and then maintain their yearly booster shots so that they remain immune to common diseases. You will also want to ask your veterinarian about flea control products and worming treatments.
Using a high-grade dog food is important for French Bulldog puppies. The first ingredient in high quality dog food is meat. The food your choose for your puppy should have no less than thirty percent crude protein, twenty percent crude fat and four percent fiber.
The puppy should get a minimum of thirty to forty-five minutes of exercise each day. French Bulldog puppies will require a lot of activity due to their active nature. Keep your puppy on a leash in public to avoid fights with other dogs. Even a calm puppy at home will quickly show another side when faced with other dog when outside on a walk.
It is also important to start obedience training early. Since French Bulldog puppies are a dominant breed you want to be able to command them through your voice alone. However, since the breed is eager to please you can often get better results through positive reinforcement rather than physical. The cold shoulder approach is best when disciplining French Bulldog puppies. This is because the breed thrives on attention and not giving it to them is worse than any newspaper or other disciplinary methods.
You also need to be calm when raising French Bulldog puppies. This plays an important part in raising the breed. If your dog is near you when you are afraid of a person or feels you are in danger from someone they will attack that person quickly.
So calm is very important especially when around strangers, otherwise you need to keep tight control over your dog so it doesn’t end up needlessly injuring someone.
