Important Health Considerations When Researching Your Puppy
When looking for a French Bulldog puppy, it’s crucial to ensure the breeder prioritise health testing. Here are some key questions to ask:
✅ Have both parents undergone hip and spine X-rays, been graded, and passed with certification?
✅ Are the puppies HC (Hereditary Cataract) clear by parentage or DNA testing?
✅ Are ANKC pedigree papers included at no extra cost? (Pedigree papers should always be provided without additional fees.)
✅ Have both parents been DNA tested with a full clear profile?
While health testing is not mandatory under registry rules, responsible breeders follow the recommendations set by French Bulldog clubs, which encourage comprehensive health screening. This includes skeletal assessments and DNA testing to ensure a full picture of a dog’s genetic and structural health before breeding. Ultimately, it is up to each breeder to determine the level of health testing they conduct, but choosing a breeder who prioritises these evaluations can make a significant difference in the long-term well-being of your future puppy.

Unfortunately, there are many unscrupulous breeders who prioritize profit over the well-being of their dogs. These breeders continuously advertise litters on platforms like social media, Gumtree, and the Trading Post, treating puppies as a product rather than a lifelong commitment.
A key red flag is breeders who always seem to have puppies available or who frequently post new litters for sale. Responsible ANKC-registered breeders focus on selective, well-planned breeding and do not operate as large-scale businesses churning out puppies for profit.
To ensure you are dealing with a reputable breeder, we recommend going through official governing bodies or French Bulldog state clubs, which we have listed below. Doing so helps protect you from unethical practices and ensures your puppy comes from a background of responsible breeding and thorough health testing.
