Hello, I'm Kendra and my little Frenchie name is Echo. I joined this site because I would love to interact with other Frenchie owners and get advise in raising my baby. Although I do have concerns, when I got her I was promised that the breeder would send me papers on her to verify that she was full blooded (papers do not play a role in how I feel about her) but in recent attempts to get ahold of her and get those papers she has not responded. She also was infested with roundworm, hookworm, and also tapeworms. She was not healthy as a pup should be when being brought home from a breeder. Which this makes me think if the breeder wasn't fully honest with her health then what else has she not been up front with? So here are the reasons I have doubts in her being full blooded.
From what I have read about French Bulldogs (wanted to be informed as much as I could) they are born barley without a tail, Echo has a long tail that curves a little (they did not dock her tail). Her Ears are long and are not standing up fully but you can tell that they try a little. I have tried to help them by taping but it did not help. She is not short and stocky but has the face of a French Bulldog. I did see pictures of the parents and they were French Bulldogs and Echo has the same color as her parents. But I am at loss why there is so much difference. Also, I paid 550 for her and I thought I just got lucky because I couldn't find any in my price range that I could afford at this time. So I am a little worried that she isn't full blooded but I could just be over thinking, maybe? I will love her no matter what she is, full blooded or not. She has stolen my heart and I was able to take her from a place she apparently wasn't being took care of then it is all worth it to me. I will upload a picture of her and hopefully you all can give me some advise on what you think. Thank you so much!
