Pure frenchie or mix?

Dwilkins42 · Jan 17, 2018

Hello everyone just got my new puppy and I am extremely excited about him. He is 12 weeks old I was told that he is a pure bred French Bulldog but I'm having second thoughts about that just wondering if you all think that he's mixed or if he is pure Frenchie? Thanks everyone

DWilkins, Welcome.

The snout looks pretty elongated for a pure frenchie.
He is a cutie. The longer snout can really help health and your sleep (less snoring).
But yes, some of the typical traits to the breed don't seem to be there on him

I recently posted the same question after similar confusion over my new puppy. I wouldn't know which way to answer your or my question because I am a total newbie, but these are some interesting articles I read today.

I deleted both articles as they promote a kennel which is against the rules. davidh

Interesting links, thanks for sharing.

What an adorable puppy! Full Frenchie or not he's a cutie!

His nose is a little long but he definitely has Frenchie ears.

Our girls both have slightly longer snouts than you typically see, but they still have the ribbon below the eyes and over the snout.
