The new French Handbook is simply the biggest, most up-to-date and detailed book on French Bulldogs.
It's the only reference book you'll ever need and suitable for new owners, prospective owners and anyone thinking of rescuing a Frenchie.
The 250 pages are packed full of information and tips on everything you'll ever need to know about caring for and training one of these highly affectionate and entertaining dogs. This handbook has over 200 pictures and is written in an easy-to-understand manner by specialist canine author Linda Whitwam, with major contributions from leading French Bulldog organisations and breeders.
The book covers looking after a Frenchie from the cradle to the grave. It gives great insight into the Frenchie’s temperament and changing needs throughout his or her life. Topics include:
How to Find a Good Breeder, The Questions to Ask, How to Spot an Importer or Puppy Broker, How to Pick a Healthy Puppy or Adult Dog, French Bulldog Temperament, How to Pick a Puppy With the Right Temperament to Suit You, Puppy Proofing Your Home.
Once you bring your Frenchie home, the book guides you through the first days and weeks, and covers Housetraining, Crate Training, Obedience Training, How to Socialise your Dog. You’ll learn the habits and situations to avoid and how to deal with behaviour problems. There are over 20 pages on Feeding a Frenchie, with all the options explained – including a Raw Diet, an increasingly popular choice for owners of Frenchies, especially those with allergies. There are also Feeding Charts, Calorie Counters, Feeding Puppies, How to Read Dog Food Labels, Feeding Senior Dogs.
More than 60 pages are devoted to French Bulldog Health, Skin and Allergies with details of tried and tested medical and holistic treatments. The advice in this book could save you a fortune in vets’ bills - not only by helping you to choose a healthy puppy or adult dog, but you’ll also learn about Keeping your Frenchie Healthy, Getting a Rescue Dog, Understanding Your Dog’s Personality, the Frenchie Facts of Life, Spaying, Neutering, Vaccinations, Worming and De-fleaing, Grooming, Caring for Older Dogs – they are all here.
The French Bulldog, like a lot of brachycephalic (flat-faced) breeds, is a special breed requiring extra special care from their humans. This book will arm you with all the knowledge you’ll ever need for the challenge of owning one of these highly rewarding and lovable dogs.
