Brief History of the French Bulldog

In the latter part of the 19th century, the lace makers of Nottingham, England, began selectively breeding a smaller toy Bulldog as a lap pet. Displaced by the Industrial Revolution, many of the lace makers crossed the English Channel, taking their small bulldogs with them to France. Some of these toy or miniature bulldogs made their way to Paris, where well-to-do Americans on the Grand Tour of Europe saw them and began bringing them to the United States. The first specialty club to represent this breed was the French Bulldog Club of America, and fanciers gave a specialty show at the Waldorf-Astoria in NYC in 1898. It was the first specialty show to be held in such quarters. Receiving serious press coverage...Frenchies were thrust into vogue, reaching a peak in 1913 with an entry of 100 at the Westminster Kennel Club.

Go to the French Bulldog Club of America (FBDCA) website to read about the full history of the breed we affectionately call "Frenchies".
