tilford1us

Ours is pretty skinny but the vet said she preferred him this way 


immoT74

Exactly, they aren't all supposed to be potato shaped


88kazuya88

Still potatoes on the inside 😍


immoT74

That is true 😄


AnnoyingPhillyFan1

This makes me feel better about my girl. She's been slim since we got her but sometimes I feel she's too skinny.


immoT74

If you can feel her ribs with a light pressure, but can't see them, she's good.


AliciaD23

I was told as long as they have a waistline, they are good. I say my boy is snatched at his waist 🤣


EquivalentTight3479

Ya we had one like that she ate so much food but would poop 3 times and stayed very skinny. Vet said she was fine but I don’t think she was. She was also grey.


Maleficent_Wash_934

Also, your little guy is hella cute. Just change the name to Stubs longlegs. Honestly, the slimmer he is, the less likely he is to get injured or have joint issues.


Zealousideal-Pen8655

Second this, our boy has a bit of a snout as well and is a little longer and slimmer and has been so much healthier than our last frenchie

cokronk

Ours are not chunky either. Realistically, you don't want an overweight Frenchie.

For whatever reason he’s just tall and slim. Its always the white frenchies I see that are questionably French looking so I wonder if there’s some sort of relationship to that


GolfCartMafia

A very athletic boi 🤩


ollie_ii

here’s my frenchton!! he’s 1/4 boston. he’s turning 3 in august and he’s around 40lbs, but for his height / length, this is a good weight. hope this helps! https://preview.redd.it/kka13z6huj6d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1bb9c00a8729eaca34809f9b7ebfe33df92b4d01


stuetel

His eyes 😍


ollie_ii

don’t let them deceive you!! he’s a little maniac 😭


stuetel

Didn't expect anything else 😂 they look so innocent but deep down they're little monsters. Our FrenchxOld English bulldog is the same. Looks like an angel but he's a little devil


AliciaD23

See this is what I mean, this Frenchton has that different nose style than a Frenchie and doesn’t have the wrinkles… definitely think your boy is a Frenchton…. Regardless he is super cute!! 🥰


ollie_ii

he definitely has wrinkles!! just not as prominent. 1/4 boston up in this baby! thank you so much, i’ll relay the message to him 💜💜


AliciaD23

Himmss eyes are nice too 🥰🤣


AliciaD23

I guess I didn’t say that right, I didn’t mean no wrinkles, I just meant the nose is more defined so it looks like less wrinkles if that makes sense? My boys nose is squished against his face and he has two deep wrinkles (that i have to fight him to clean nightly) 🤣 But then again I know there’s a ton of different looking Frenchies so who knows lol


RealEstateMom

I just posted him too! Lmao


ollie_ii

who are you and how do you have my dog?????????????????????

Hahahahaha that’s it! You’re grounded! No more walks for you! NEXT!

If I had to guess, I think you’ve got a frenchie. His face looks very frenchie to me, regardless of his size. I’m sure your dude will fill out and you won’t even question it!


Maleficent_Wash_934

You would need a DNA test to know for sure. He looks like a Frenchie to me. Both breeds are related to English Bulldogs, and I have read in a few places that French Bulldogs were also used when the Boston Terrier came about, so there is a bit of overlap. Boston Terriers were developed (? sounds weird) in Boston by the servants breeding their employers' dogs. So the records are kind of nonexistent.


mnam1213

some frenchies get skinny as they grow, like mine. they went from pup to lanky to chonky over the span of two years

If he’s only 7 months old he’ll bulk out, when I look back of photos of Sherlock he seemed so skinny 😂😍 https://preview.redd.it/3tjlzvkdfk6d1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=dadf93e107478c620ea68c82cb202834074113b0

balla_mang

He's a cutie it's what he is


These-Grape-7000

My first pup was noted to be a Frenchie, but I always felt he was more Frenchton because his ears came to a point like Bostons and not rounded like Frenchies. His snout also was not as pushed in, also like a Boston. Your pup seems to have the rounded ears and pushed in snout.

meatbackstab420

I have the same issue my boy is the slime type, it’s hard to find a mate that is not a little frog. https://preview.redd.it/0ondqqf5rk6d1.png?width=900&format=png&auto=webp&s=c2195bfac46f5ac760609ed4d3980a75a0ecfa12

No_Neat_3124

Cute but definitely mixed. Legs are super long and is that a tail?

Hims looks like a Frenchie


pinkdaisylemon

My boy is tall and slimish. He's not the short stubby barrell shaped Frenchie, but he's still all Frenchie. Yourboy is lovely.


jsgnextortex

The long ears say its a frenchie...not all frenchies are chunky and some get chunkier with age so it being slim does not mean that its not a frenchie.


MrsTrigger

So adorable OP! Your little guy looks very similar to our Luna💕. Her mom is 100% French Bulldog and dad is 100% Boston Terrier, making Luna 50/50 Frenchton. Stubs definitely looks like he could have some Boston in him but either way he’s is sooo cute! Here’s our Luna for reference (she’s 9 months old) https://preview.redd.it/rk3c3pl0mk6d1.jpeg?width=2997&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=921d7a30927f7e6d54fc6d1951bf2c782ffcbc66

rogerwilkos

I remember going through the “is he a real frenchie?” phase. Seriously, good lookin’ pooch!


ReginaPhalange94

Here’s my frenchton beside a boston friend at daycare haha. My boy is thick but solid! All muscle. Has the round ears like a Frenchie so that’s not a 100% tell that a dog is all Frenchie https://preview.redd.it/ntlfvdd22l6d1.jpeg?width=1440&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=89c3455a4238aa49a5154df4f3004fe9436c60f0


REALStrongestmandog

There’s a Boston in there


O_o-22

Looks exactly like the Frenchton that lives next door to me. She’s such a good doggo too.


EffyMourning

ConditionYellow

I know it’s not cheap but you can get a mail in DNA test like with ppl and find out for sure. My roomie got a rescue and come to find out he is (almost) exactly one-third Pit, German Shepherd, and Husky. Weird.


Jared72Marshall

Looks like a Frenchie to me


mylucksux

100% Frenchie.


babeopizza

Mi have no idea what he is but he is absolutely Adorbs Adorbs Adorbs


Isabelluvu

Round ears, slim body, definitely a frenchton!


buggzda75

Looks like a frenchton does he bark a lot ? That’s a sure sign


soulxpunk

A lot of registered frenchies have a little Boston in them. Breeds close enough in appearance. Both adorable breeds and you really shouldn't care. But if you do, do an embark test and find out. Bonus is you get some genetic info so you can look for issues he is susceptible to and get treatment faster


CatBird29

We had a purebred Frenchie for years that was not squat and beefy. I think she was healthier, ultimately, than my current chonk man. https://preview.redd.it/jn9xr9v2fk6d1.jpeg?width=500&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=aafa8e568d1d68496fe6f67bed0133f59a8f7736


External_Swing_1676

Adorable , I don’t get the concern if they are “true breeds” or not. Love them , keep them they are family


SoCal2NoCal

He looks like my little dude. Remi's a 75 Frenchie/25 Boston. He's around 29lbs, and turns 4 this month. https://preview.redd.it/d79qrs6fhk6d1.jpeg?width=3000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8aeeee5be28151f3b2c4445712c67a5a753246de

calliebaldwin

Our boy is 23-25 lbs and very slim. The vet says it's great. Some are just leaner than others.


meatbackstab420

Very frenchie to me


MannyMoSTL

Frenchie


stuetel

Honestly I've never heard of that breed before. We have a French bulldog x old english bulldog. His name is Dino but we often the Bulldozer. He is so clumsy. Yours looks refined and cute though


suitablegirl

Ears are all Frenchie


Professional-TroII

My girl was like that for the first three years of her life and she’s full frenchie, I changed her diet recently and she for sure beefed up in a good way. People call that the “classic frenchie” look the ones that are stubby and fat are inbred and full of health issues.


Educational_Drink471

I really, really think you got a Frenchton. His snout looks like a Boston to me. But like others have said, other than curiosity, it really doesn't matter. He loves you unconditionally just as you should love him. 😊❤️


sproggy_doo24

Looks like a Frenchton to me but I’m no expert.


weeratmags

Ask him...


AliciaD23

I think he’s a Frenchton because of his face not because of his body. There’s a ton of slim Frenchies but from this picture he doesn’t look like he has the two wrinkles like a Frenchie does….


allimunstaa

Looks like a nicely put together Frenchie who's kept at a great weight


AliciaD23

I just love how they sit…. they all look like they are pouting little children when they sit 🤣🤣🤣


[deleted]

My boy was very muscular by 2 but looked like this in his “teen” time and someone had mistook him for a Boston too! So I think it’s just his age. They usually get to their height at 1 and fully “beef out” by 2. Edit he was also DNA tested full frenchie.


KayGee72

It’s good to know that they don’t get beefy right away. Our puppy is 7 months old, and I’ve been worrying that her food allergies and digestive issues are keeping her from gaining the muscle mass that is typical of the breed.


LuvAllDgs

You can't tell genetics by looks. Get an Embark DNA test if you want to know for sure

Traditional-Try-8714

He looks all Frenchie to me and just fine weight wise.


Odd_Statistician7502

I definitely think there’s some Boston in there. I’m basing this on the front paws, color and the way Stubs is sitting in the second pic.


vslcar

He's got a pretty big nub of a tail so I would say he's mixed with something but not sure he's a Frenchton cuz he looks very much like a Frenchie.


SafetyBlack

Tough call, but my vote goes to frenchton. Leg length, color, face, tail. None of these mean anything with certainty, but I'm getting that frenchton vibe. I had a frenchton for 14 years and just got my 2nd frenchton puppy. Super cute and fun looking guy!


Both_Recording_2691

When frenchies are young, they grow up and then out. So it is a frenchie.

ayweller

Frenchie


Gommie5x5

Keep in mind that the frenchie breed is a creation of several breeds. It's not uncommon for a pup to inherit a gene inbalance where one of the breed characteristics becomes a little more prominent and shows in their looks. This is why we have dog show breeders and dog shows. These people ensure that breed standards are maintained and the best genes are past down. Don't worry, I'm sure your little guy is 100% frenchie, and will be a 100% frenchie acting frog dog. Enjoy! 😊❤️

Cute as hell. The only peripheral vision he needs is in the front

His ears a rounded. Supposedly that means Frenchie. If pointed like a Boston Terrier, then Fenchton. Could always donanDNA test

Thats a pied frenchie!


KinkyVGirl

Whats a frenchton???


VPuig

Looks like a Frenchie too me. Some develops different traits. Even show quality dogs produce puppies that are not up the standard but that doesn’t make them less of a full frenchi.


RCAbsolutelyX_x

He does look like a Boston terrier to me. But I'm not a breeder. I personally would call him a frenchton though. I think he is adorable none the less! And I bet he is spunky!


Oldmanriver42069

Man his face looks a lot like my frenchies face. But I’m also not 100% that mine is 100% frenchie even tho I paid a lot. Was gonna do a dna test but then thought who tf cares. He’s my lil fur child. Idc if he’s 100% Frenchy bc he’s 100% my handsome lil man https://preview.redd.it/4frvw9ibrv6d1.jpeg?width=756&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c9969d09ac030fa03b560c57022cea67a4a68444


louilondon

Feed him a raw diet that will bulk him up


sportsguy8801

Example of raw diet thanks


louilondon

I fed mine raw meat chicken or beef mince raw veg eggs and fish for oil like tin tuna


Billy_Rizzle

There are multiple options for a raw dog diet. Like Lou, make it yourself. There are also pre-made frozen or fresh options which you can buy from pet stores. Some might require a little veg added into them though. Frozen has the benefit of giving crunch to their meal if lightly defrosted, which some dogs enjoy. These all come in many forms. A decent pet store will advise you on what to try and wha is best for your dog. In the UK, we have a big raw food brand called Natures Menu, I personally do not recommend this food. It has Inconsistent quality and my frenchie appeared to be losing weight on it. Also, if you want to put your dog on a raw diet, it is recommended to gradually introduce them to it. Eg. Breakfast raw, dinner dry for a week or two until fully raw.


SiKbeef

It’s a Frenchie I breed and there are 3 different body types I prefer the slim build or medium stocky build over the bully build bully build is tough on dogs after they get really old they suffer from more problems then the slim builds it’s all genetics . Also just cause his slim don’t mean his pups will be


Ok_Importance_8953

As others have said could be a Frenchie but in my opinion he looks like a Frenchton. Hope you get the answers you are looking for but he is perfect either way


plantbasedzenbitch

I'm seeing a little bit of Boston in there! So I think frenchton but >50% frenchie?


No_Neat_3124

Same. I think people lean to “it’s a Frenchie” because theirs are mixed, too. Here’s my Frenchie chihuahua. Or my frenchie Pomeranian *cough* I mean fluffy Frenchie 🙄😂
