Frenchies are F'd

French Bulldogs may be one of the most popular dog breeds in the world, but behind their big eyes and compact bodies lies a heartbreaking reality. Join The Amys and their groundbreaking guest, Dr. Julia Tomlinson, for a controversial conversation about how these dogs are being bred for looks over health—and the devastating consequences that follow. From chronic breathing issues to spinal deformities, skin problems, and the emotional toll of living in discomfort, we explore why the very traits that make Frenchies so trendy, are also making them suffer. What should responsible breeding look like? How can prospective owners make more ethical choices? Isn't it time to rethink what “cute” really means when it comes to our dogs’ well-being? It's that time again, so grab a cocktail and get up to speed on the latest buzzzzzz, courtesy of your favorite VBees 🐝🐝, on the latest episode of Behavior Buzzzzzz with 2 Amys veterinary behavior podcast.
