Frequently Asked Questions | The French Bulldog USA

    General Questions

    The French Bulldog USA is a nationwide French Bulldog placement program specializing in thoughtfully raised, health-tested French Bulldog puppies. We work with approved families across the United States, offering personalized guidance, transparent health practices, and ethical breeding standards.

    Our goal is quality placements that support both puppy and family long-term.

    Our home base is in Colorado, where our program is rooted and overseen.

    In addition, we maintain a regular presence in Florida, including the Orlando and Tampa areas, with scheduled monthly trips for in-person puppy delivery and placement support.

    We also place puppies with families throughout the rest of the United States.

    Yes. We place French Bulldogs with approved families across the U.S.

    Depending on location, puppies may be:

    • Picked up in person

    • Delivered during scheduled regional travel (including Florida)

    • Transported safely and ethically via a puppy nanny when appropriate

    Every placement is handled individually to ensure the puppy’s well-being.

    Puppy Health & Care

    Yes. All puppies in our program come from health-tested parents and receive:

    • Veterinary health exams

    • Age-appropriate vaccinations

    • Microchipping

    • Transparent health documentation

    We prioritize both genetic health and early developmental care.

    Yes. Our puppies come with a written health guarantee outlining genetic and health protections.

    We believe in transparency and are happy to walk families through this in detail before placement.

    Our puppies are raised using a whole-pup approach, which includes:

    • Veterinary oversight

    • Thoughtful nutrition

    • Gut health support

    • Stress-reduction and early socialization

    • Age-appropriate neurological and environmental exposure

    This foundation helps puppies transition more confidently into their new homes.

    Adoption & Placement Process

    Our process is intentionally relationship-based, not transactional.

    1. Initial conversation to learn about your home and lifestyle

    2. Matching families with the right puppy (not just availability)

    3. Review of health details and expectations

    4. All new owners must complete the Prep for Your Frenchie Course before pickup. 

    5. Placement coordination and ongoing support

    We do not operate as a “checkout button” breeder.

    Pricing varies based on factors such as lineage, structure, color, and individual puppy considerations.

    We are always transparent about pricing during the conversation stage and are happy to explain what goes into the cost of a thoughtfully raised French Bulldog.

    We don’t use a rigid application form, but we do require a conversation and completion of the Prep for Your Frenchie course before pickup.

    This ensures our puppies are placed in homes that are prepared for the responsibilities of French Bulldog ownership.

    Travel, Pickup & Florida Availability

    Yes. We offer scheduled monthly trips to Florida, including:

    • Orlando

    • Tampa

    • Surrounding areas

    This allows families to meet their puppy in person and receive hands-on placement support.

    Availability depends on scheduling and spots available, so we recommend reaching out early. 

    Yes, when scheduling allows. We prioritize safe, low-stress transitions and will discuss the best option for each puppy and family. If we cannot, we have relationships with trusted puppy nannies. 

    Breed-Specific Questions

    French Bulldogs are known for being affectionate, loyal, and people-oriented. They do especially well in homes that value companionship and structure.

    Like all breeds, French Bulldogs have breed-specific considerations.

    This is why ethical breeding, health testing, and proper early care matter.

    Our program is designed to reduce avoidable risks and support families with education, not surprises.

    Ongoing Support

    Yes. Our relationship with families does not end at pickup.

    We provide:

    • Transition guidance

    • Nutrition and care recommendations

    • Ongoing availability for questions

    • Courses in the app include: Potty training bootcamp & a Health & Wellness section

     

    We want both the puppy and the family to thrive.

    Financing Options Other than Credit Cards

    Yes. At The French Bulldog USA, we offer several financing and payment options to help approved families welcome their puppy home responsibly.

    We believe puppy placement should be thoughtful and accessible — never rushed or stressful.

    Yes.

    We offer PayPal Pay Later, including 0% interest financing for up to 6 months (subject to PayPal approval).

    • A 3% transaction fee is added to PayPal financing transactions

    • Terms and approval are determined directly by PayPal

    • Payments are managed entirely through your PayPal account

    This option is popular for families who want predictable monthly payments with no interest when paid on time.

    Klarna may be available through our secure Stripe checkout, depending on your eligibility. Payments are processed entirely through Stripe, and we do not have access to your credit card information. Klarna approval and terms are determined directly by Klarna.

    Yes, Affirm is often available depending on your individual eligibility.

    Some families choose to:

    • Use Affirm by creating a temporary virtual credit card through their Affirm account to complete payment securely.

    Approval, limits, and repayment terms are set by the financing provider, not by us.

    Accordion Content

    Yes.We also work with a third-party financing provider, Terrace Finance,  that may offer longer repayment terms and alternative approval structures.

    These options are handled outside of our website and require a separate application.

    You are welcome to apply, and we’re happy to discuss whether this may be a good fit for your situation.

    Financing availability depends on:

    • Credit approval through the financing provider

    • The specific payment platform chosen

    • Compliance with our puppy placement and approval process

    All puppies are placed with approved families only, regardless of payment method.

    The puppy’s base price remains the same.

    However, third-party processors may add transaction fees (such as the 3% PayPal financing fee), which are disclosed in advance.

    Absolutely.

    We’re happy to walk you through available options and help you choose the most appropriate and responsible payment method for your family.
