They're adorable.  I'm pretty sure these are English Bulldogs.  I thought Frenchies were born with their ears up.


IME puppies are born with ears like in the OP picture, and then ones with erect ears go up as they grow.

@jaxs mom  What does IME stand for?  I tried Googling it and can't figure it out.

That little guy you posted is a blue. They are a "no no" in the Frenchie standard. They are twice the price too. 


I know blue or "mouse" as they call it isn't acceptable to AKC, but I think they are cute! I would only want one for a pet anyway. I wouldn't be breeding it.

 

To be honest I've got my hands full with these 3 galoots.

@YorkieonmyPillow  It's not just that they aren't acceptable to AKC.  It's that they have health problems.  I know you're not going to get one but am posting this so that you and others will know.  Below is an excerpt from an article about Frenchie colors.

 

ALL ABOUT BLUE frenchies!  Blue is mouse and is not allowed--

BLUE  is  Mouse and is not allowed-produces yellow or green eyed dogs which can develop blindness.   The Blue/Mouse color produces dogs with Follicular dysplasia -gradual hair loss starting as young age causing dry scaly skin susceptible to bacterial infections. No cure and condition becomes increasingly worse.   Blue should not be registered as Fawn on AKC registration and is rare because breeders should NOT try to breed it. Just because your BLUE puppy with yellow eyes can see now and has good skin doesn't mean it won't loose its sight and develop allergy skin problems later.

FOR THOSE WHO LOVE FRENCHIES:

 

There is a group of Frenchie owners who post photos of their dogs on Instagram.

 

They are just sooooooo cute!  Some are short videos.

 

If anyone is interested, I can look for the Instagram address of the group for you.

Okay this may come across as nasty.  I want to kiss the buddha bellied babies salty toes, lol.

There are many elements: wind, fire, water
But none quite like the element of surprise
