Lazy frenchie

Jamica · Aug 19, 2015

Hi frenchie owners,

Wanting to know what everyone's frenchies get up to in the day, mine are active for a while and then sleep most the day, especially if I'm at home having a lazy day they are happy to snooze the day away. I just wanted to know if other frenchie said are like this or are mine bored? I take them from a run 4-5 times a day in which they run around like wild animals. Haha
But right now they are both snuggled up snoring and have been for hours.

Thanks for the information.

Jax will sleep most of the day but he does have his moments of running around wild.

Okay great, mine do too. Like just now they ran around the coffee table in circles for 30 minutes! Now both flat out on the tiles snoring their heads off.

Wally loves to run around but he only lasts for so long before he'll lie down for a rest. After a while he's back up, running around again.

Thanks for all the feedback. Was worried they were bored or not stimulated enough.

But just being typical frenchies.

Lol we went through this with Hudson. I'd always ask my boyfriend "do you think he's sick?" "Is he bored?" "Does he hate us?" He'd always roll his eyes and say no!! He's just a bulldog!! Haha. I think it's all normal!

Hahah, I'm exactly the same I would always say that to my partner. But yes I now belive it is because they are just a bulldog!

Oh yes the big burst of energy are very entertaining, and then straight back to snoring the house down.

My girl is the laziest dog I've ever had. She is asleep and snoring right now. She will play for a bit several times a day but mostly she's all about resting.

My two boys get like that too....sleep for awhile and then it's on to what I call their Frenchie Frenzy of running around...doing laps around the table and then they wrestle for a bit and back to sleep again. I love watching them do all of this.

Same here too! I have many times wondered that is the life I provide for moses a good one. He lazies around when I'm working or doing other stuff, but he is always ready for a play session and walks. Now when he has been ill, he doesn't want to got to long walks and turns around by himself when he has walked far enough and then drags me back

I believe this is a bulldog way of live and perfectly normal

I'm really glad to hear that everyone else has had the same worries as I have. My husband has asked me several times if Twiggy was okay because she lays around and sleeps so much. I assured him she was fine, but secretly kind of worried a bit myself. Vet said she was great, she eats good, and plays so I guess it's just a bulldog thing.

I'm so glad you started this thread because I too have been wondering something similar to this! Banksy loves running around like crazy in the yard every time we let him out, and we go for at least one or two walks a day. At night he is normally lazy and will lay down but, during the day he just stares at us. If I am doing the dishes or cleaning up around he literally will follow me and sit and stare at me. It makes me feel so bad like he is so bored and lonely but I think he just likes to be around us!? He is a major part of our lives but we still have people things that need to be done and can't be playing 24/7 but he definitely seems to be not impressed when all attention is not on him.

Yes both my boys are the same, love to play and run crazy but also love to be lazy, they follow me from room to room and stare at me, but I believe it's because they want you to know that they are still there and happy watching you!

Yeah, it takes a little to get used to having them always staring at you hey lol
I will get used to it I'm sure.
