French Bulldog Personality


Read More

French bulldogs are known for being even-tempered and playful. Because of their size, they can do well in smaller homes and apartments, making them an ideal companion for city life.

Two of the best qualities of French bulldogs are their adaptability and ability to get along well with children. However, while these traits may be innate, it's still an excellent idea to enroll a dog in training to help build their socialization skills and teach them basic commands for safety.

French bulldogs instinctively bark to alert you when strangers are at the door. Training can teach your dog how to respond appropriately to avoid excessive barking and alerts whenever the mail or delivery man drops off a package. This training can be vital in an apartment setting to maintain peace in a shared complex. While they may not need much exercise due to their small size and stature, training your dog to walk on a leash is still a good idea. Walking is a great opportunity for your dog to get outside and discover new things. Your dog may make new friends with both people and canines.

Training can help make this experience safe and fun for you and your dog. Because French bulldogs are friendly, you'll want to train them to socialize appropriately with people and dogs that may be less open to meeting new friends.

As your Frenchie will probably enjoy ample time indoors, it's also great to train them to communicate when they need to go potty. Accidents happen, and dogs often need to be trained on what to do when they need to go to avoid having them.

    This was great! You gave us great tools and advice for working with Little Boy on managing his reactivity. Working every day with muzzle-walks and inthe yard. Looking forward to the next class. Thanks!

    We have been working with Hannah to get our service dog Pesto trained and it’s been a great experience. Our dog adores her and she’s great at helping us keep Pesto on track. We are so happy that we choose Dog Training Elite for her training.

    I have been so happy with Dog Training Elite Clarksville. Each trainer has been excellent: Regina, Amber, and Austin. My puppy gets excited to see them. The e-collar has really helped Riley make the right choice making life more harmonious. It's more of a nudge. It, of course, is taking follow through at home, but the combined efforts will ingrain the behavior I am looking for. My puppy is the happiest girl ever. I am learning good ideas and how to work better with Riley than I would on my own. Had I not hired DTEC I would've been a lot more frustrated and had a bratty puppy. It was the right decision for us.

    Trainer Jay worked miracles with my high drive German Shepherd, Rocky. Rocky learned so much from Trainer Jay and my family learned how to train Rocky to be a good member of the family. By the time our private lessons were done, Rocky walked great on a leash, listened and responded extremely well to all of his commands, had almost zero reactivity. He still gets excited and jumps a little when he sees Trainer Jay but we’ll keep working on that. Thanks Trainer Jay and Dog Training Elite of Southern CT for helping with Rocky. I highly recommend Dog Training Elite of Southern CT!

    I can’t begin to tell you how much of a difference this training has made. I was very close to re homing my dog thinking it wasn’t a good fit, his personality and my expectations. Within the first week, there were many big changes that took place. The training process with Alexa kept getting better and my dog’s retention was growing stronger each week. I now have a well behaved 2 yr old guy who is respectful and fun to be with. I can’t thank you enough, Alexa for your patience and kindness.

    As Tina Turner would say, “simply the best.” Thank you. Another splendid session. Knowledgeable, caring, involved and a real mentor to all three of us. Gunner is really rounding into shape.

    Hi we saw Jeff for our first day of training. It went great. He was wonderful with our dog and we are already seeing results. Can’t wait to see how it goes when we have had more training sessions.

    Debbie was very professional and pleasant to talk with. She demonstrated the commands with Luna first and then guided me through with Luna. Great experience.

    I can not say enough good things. We had tried another training place prior to finding Dog Training Elite that was just not working & seemed to be making our dog more stressed. This was the best investment we could have possibly made— truly the best money we could have spent and worth every penny. Our quality of life and our relationship with our dog is amazing now after this training. Every trainer genuinely cared and understood the animals. They always remember our dog by name & she was so excited to see each of them & excited to go to training. My favorite part of this training was that after the 2 weeks of 8 hours a day training, it’s followed by weekly group training we attend where we continue to learn new skills, ask the trainers questions, and socialize with other pets and their owners. I would highly recommend to anyone!

    George at Dog Training Elite Twin Cities was recommended to me by a breeder I respect. George had trained several of his dogs and he was very satisfied and encouraged me to call him. When I contacted George, I found him to be business like, prompt in returning texts, and patient and encouraging when working with me and Millie (my yellow lab puppy). I've been pleased with the training Millie and I have received. George really got to know the personality of Millie and helped me work on some of the behavior concerns I had with her. Now, after 10 weeks of in home training, she's become a sweet, obedient 9 month old puppy.I would highly recommend George at Dog Training Elite Twin Cities. He's a great guy.

    Dog Training Elite has been nothing short of incredible. I honestly can’t say enough good things about their team and the results they’ve helped us achieve. When we started, my dog had plenty of areas that needed work—but through their structured training, patience, and clear guidance, everything changed. They don’t just train your dog—they teach you how to communicate effectively, which made all the difference. The trainers are professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely care about your dog’s success. What really stands out is the transformation. My dog has gone from needing direction to being confident, obedient, and reliable in a variety of environments. Thanks to Dog Training Elite, he’s now at the point where he’s ready to take a therapy dog test—which I never would have imagined before starting. If you’re on the fence, don’t be. This program works. It’s an investment that pays off in every aspect of your dog’s behavior and your relationship with them. Highly recommend.

    Hi my name is Jackie and I have a 18 month old Rottweiler named Nova. I rescued her June 2025 from a Facebook add, she was covered in wounds and was living outside with a bunch of other dogs in a small gravel lot. She had never been inside, around people or experienced the world so she came to me very nervous and anxious. After about 6 months of getting to know her and bringing her around to new environments and people I began to notice an escalation in her response to meeting new people which went from cowering and hiding to lingering and nipping and it was impossible for strangers to be in the house and I no longer could bring her to work. Unsure how to help her I started researching and decided to meet with Chris! He was so kind and answered all of my questions and concerns. I was then paired with Karly for training and boy is she a wealth of knowledge!!! In just two sessions we have made HUGE GAINS! Yesterday she laid in her place cot with all of the distractions and triggers of Chris walking around the house and doing things that would normally trigger her. By the end of the session she was completely relaxed and unconcerned of what was happening around her and focused on me. I could cry I am so happy! If you are looking for compassionate, caring, and highly experienced and knowledgeable trainers look no further!

Safety and Health

French bulldogs don't require much mental stimulation, making them easy pets around the house. Regardless, it’s still vital that they know what parts of your home are safe to explore and what areas they need to avoid.

Proper training can help your dog learn to be alone and relieve stress when you are away from home. You'll also want to be confident your dog won't run out into busy streets when you open the front door, so sit and down commands are vital.

Sit, come, heel, and down are also vital to their safety around water. Because of their short legs and body shape, French bulldogs cannot swim without assistance. They must listen to you whenever you are around pools, lakes, or oceans.

Because of their face shape, French bulldogs can also be prone to breathing problems. Training can help to take the stress out of vet visits. It can also help you identify times when your pet is communicating that something is wrong so that you can help support their health and well-being.

Choosing the proper French bulldog training should offer the support you need to work with your dog. At Dog Training Elite, we focus on keeping your dog safe and happy. We use an electronic vibrating collar rather than a shock collar to reinforce concepts and keep them focused. We want dogs to feel supported and excited to learn concepts to help them lead a happy and safe life with you! Investing in quality training and socialization will help you and your dog navigate new environments together.
