The Frenchton is a loveable and loyal small breed designer dog cross-bred from the French bulldog and Boston Terrier. Known for being great family pets, Frenchtons are highly energetic. They make great city pets, just as they also suit apartment dwellers, kids, and the elderly. 

 

Frenchtons were first bred in an attempt to bring positive traits of the Boston terrier and French bulldog together. But they were also bred to eliminate the respiratory problems and other health issues of the French bulldog.

​

Although no one knows the exact origin, its parent breeds have a clearer background. The Boston terrier was developed in Boston, Massachusetts in the late 1800s as a new American breed. The French bulldog came from England sometime before 1896. The International Designer Canine Association recognized the Frenchton in 2009 after its alleged origin in America during the 1990s.

Frenchtons are spunky little dogs well-suited to small living spaces and people of all ages. Because the breed does not typically bark much, they will not disturb your neighbors as much as some other breeds. However, they are known for their snoring as much as their loyal and loving cuddles!

​

   Frenchton  puppies are typically born with droopy ears that stand up at about five weeks to eight months of age. They are highly playful and sweet little dogs that love to cuddle at naptime but may keep you awake with their loud snoring!
