Fortunately, French Bulldogs require fairly little care compared with many other breeds of house dogs, which is a good thing for Lacey since she also has to take care of five kids and a husband. About all we have to do for our Frenchies is periodically clip their nails and make sure the folds of skin on their faces and around their tails are kept clean by wiping them out with a wet wipe every week or two.  Frenchies also have a tendency to get ear infections, so their ears should be flushed out and cleaned with Q-tips at least monthly.

Proper care for teeth is recommended for any breed. Some people recommend that you brush your Frenchie’s teeth regularly, but we give our Frenchies lots of bones and chew toys and they do fine without daily brushing. There is a paste you can rub on their teeth on a regular basis which is all that is really needed. It does all the work for you and Frenchies tolerate it much better than having toothbrushes in their mouths; and it is certainly a lot more convenient. You should have your adult Frenchies teeth professionally cleaned at about 3 years of age, and then every year or two thereafter to ensure their teeth are in good health and stay that way. Tooth problems not only cause problems in the mouth, but tooth problems can lead to other health issues. The best treatment is always PREVENTION!
