French Bulldog is the number one most popular dog in the United States for four consecutive years. Lifespan: 10-12 years. Temperament: playful, alert, adaptable, smart.

French Bulldogs cannot cool themselves efficiently due to their flat face. Overheating is a life-threatening emergency that develops faster in Frenchies than any other breed.

French Bulldogs average $3,700-$7,700 in lifetime medical costs beyond routine care due to breed-specific conditions.
