Care and health

Grooming a French Buillon is relatively simple. His coat requires regular brushing to remove dead hair and keep his skin healthy. Bathing should only be done when necessary to avoid stripping the natural oils of his skin.

In terms of health, French Buillons are generally robust dogs, but can be prone to some health problems common in parent breeds, including hip dysplasia, respiratory problems and certain skin conditions. Regular health checks and vaccinations are essential to manage these concerns.

The appearance of the French Buillon can vary, as it depends on the genetic characteristics of both parents. He is typically a small to medium sized dog, weighing between 6 and 14 kilograms and standing between 20 and 35 cm tall. His coat is short to medium length, smooth or wavy and can come in a variety of colors including Brindle, White, Black or Fawn. His ears can have either the upright "bat ears" of the French Bulldog or the prominent butterfly-like ears of the Papillon.
