1. You Can Say Goodbye to Personal Space

Once you welcome a Frenchie into your life, you can forget everything you knew about personal space. These little shadows are loyal to the core and will follow you absolutely everywhere – whether you’re working, cooking, or even taking a quick shower. Need a moment to yourself? Not gonna happen! If you’re sitting down to relax, they’ll be right there, curling up on your lap or snuggling so close it’s like they think you’re their personal pillow. Privacy? That’s not a thing in a Frenchie household – but who needs it when you have such adorable company?

“Hazel has no concept of personal space, she is like Velcro and sticks with you ALL day 😂 Hazel has FOMO (fear of missing out) she could be in a dead sleep snoring 💤 but any sense of movement sets her into a bolting jump up to see where you’re at.” (Lisa)

“MICKIE JAGS and sky blue are awesome in every way. I’m OK with the Velcro that both of them provide to me. I think it’s adorable. MICKIE looks out for me. We’ll sit in the bathroom when I take a shower SKYE on the other hand will decide to bite you in the middle of the night when she wants your attention. She seems to be a night owl and will get up at 1 o’clock in the morning and start roaming the house And like I said, we’ll just bite you on the toe bite you on the leg for attention not the best thing at 2 o’clock in the morning, but the love that they give is so worth it.” (Victoria)

2. Your Home’s Comfy Spots Will No Longer Be Yours

Thinking about getting a Frenchie? Be prepared to surrender every comfy spot in your home. Couches, beds, even your favorite chair – they’ll claim it all. These little royalty don’t just sit; they sprawl out like they own the place. And you? Well, you’ll be left squeezing into a tiny corner, wondering how such a small dog can take up so much space. Sure, it’s frustrating, but don’t worry – you’ll still have the privilege of watching them look absolutely adorable while ruling over their kingdom.

“My funny struggle is how they like to flatten the cushions on my brand new couch… This is their house, we just live in it 🙄(Johnnathan)

When you bring a Frenchie into your life, you’re not just getting a cuddly companion – you’re also signing up for a little “fart factory.” These dogs are known for leaving their aromatic mark, and trust us, it’s not subtle. Whether they’re lounging like royalty or showing off their famous zoomies, they have their unique way of making their presence unforgettable. Sure, it might take some getting used to, but it’s all part of the package, and their endless love more than makes up for it.

“This pumpkin nugget does do more than sleep, LOTS more, but these shot are when I find her most beautiful. The frenchie zoomies, goofiness and farts, can’t forget the farts, are all part of what makes my days the best” (Alan)

4. Your Laughing Muscles Will Never Get a Break

Living with a Frenchie means you can forget about peaceful, quiet evenings. Their constant snorting, ridiculous poses, and frantic zoomies will have you laughing so much it might start to feel like a full-time job. Whether they’re inventing new ways to play or randomly contorting themselves into absurd positions, your Frenchie will keep you on your toes and out of breath from nonstop laughter. If you were hoping for a dull, uneventful life, a Frenchie is definitely not for you!

“There’s never a dull moment with these guys! 🥰. Odin keeps life fun and interesting!” (Laurie)

“Sybil has a very interesting way to initiate play time. She loves to play hide n seek. When she wants to play, she will sit by our side give us a death stare and as soon as you ask what is it? She runs and slides like pro under the couch and turns around with her head peeking out from under and has a funny scruffy bark, which we translate as “come get me if you can” 😂 And then instead of acknowledging her, we go around the house saying,”Where’s Sybil”? She will run behind us pawing our legs to tell us where she is, if we still don’t acknowledge her presence she will plant her self right in front of us in a downward dog pose n not move till we pet her…n say O there you are 😂🤣” (Vishal)

Is it mixed with something else? Is it a fuzzy Frenchie is it a long-haired Frenchie what is it? And she is the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen.🤣🤣🤣 (Sherri)
