frenchtons

Frenchtons are friendly, loving, and intelligent. They are laid back and low energy so are great apartment dogs.

The Frenchton is a cross between a French Bulldog and a Boston Terrier that typically weighs between 15 – 25 pounds and has a life expectancy of 12 – 15 years.  Depending upon the parentage of a Frenchton, they can be plagued by a variety of health problems.  With proper care and yearly vet exams, the majority of Frenchtons will live long and healthy lives. Monitor your dog for any physical or behavioral changes, and contact your veterinarian with any concerns.
