Nutrition plays a huge role in your French Bulldog puppy’s growth and health. Here’s how to make sure your Frenchie gets the right balance of food, vitamins, and care.
🍼 How Often to Feed
8–12 weeks old: 3–4 small meals a day
3–6 months old: 3 meals a day
6 months and older: 2 meals a day
Keeping meals consistent prevents overeating and supports digestion.
🦴 Choosing the Right Food
Look for high-quality puppy food that includes:
Real meat as the first ingredient
Balanced fats and carbohydrates
DHA and calcium for healthy brain and bone development
Avoid fillers, artificial colors, and by-products — Frenchies can be prone to food sensitivities.
⚖️ Portion Control
Follow the serving guidelines on your food’s label, but monitor your puppy’s weight. French Bulldogs love to eat and can easily become overweight. You should feel their ribs, but not see them.
🚰 Hydration Matters
Always keep fresh, clean water available. Frenchies can get thirsty quickly, especially during playtime or warm weather.
💛 Pro Tip:
Ask your vet about adding omega fatty acids for a shiny coat and strong skin — perfect for those famous Frenchie wrinkles!
