In reply to Lynn W Boynton. What about the ones that don’t boss, but are way to cute and makes it hard to resist giving in? That being said, we are both well trained and my girl rarely has unreasonable requests. She doesn’t balk much or very long when I stand firm.

The issue with merle is that French bulldogs were mixed with another breed to get the color. Unethical breeders breed for color and charge higher prices for “rare” (out of standard) colors.
A dog being merle doesn’t mean it’s unhealthy, but buying from a breeder that doesn’t health test (there are tests that are recommended by the breed club) is problematic.
I’m glad you mentioned merle x merle breeding, and that double merlse can cause deafness and blindness.

Oh gosh, I’m tired and didn’t read the article through… You did address the health issues, and I take back what I said – since the Frenchie becoming number 1 dog, there’s been more articles promoting the designer colours. I apologise, and thank you for what is a well written article. I’ll get off the internet now!

These aren’t rare, or worth more. They’re crossbred for “designer colours”, meaning the backyard breeders is not pushing to meet the standard, and has no proof of their commitment to healthy bulldogs. They are a breed with a history of major health issues, and it’s these backyard breeders crossbreeding for $$$ that are having a huge impact on our health.

Please, do the ethical thing and don’t encourage this behaviour.

The best bulldog is the dog that doesn’t boss it’s owner constantly trying to get what they want to do.
