Two French Bulldogs. Two very different stories. 🐾
The dog on the left is Arnie — an award-winning AKC show dog.
Perfect head shape. Compact body. Short muzzle. Years of selective breeding to match the exact standard judges want to see. He’s won ribbons, titles, and hearts in the show ring.
The dog on the right is Flint — bred in the Netherlands by Hawbucks French Bulldogs. He doesn’t fully match the “classic” Frenchie look… and that’s on purpose.
Hawbucks is on a mission to build a new kind of French Bulldog — one with a longer muzzle for easier breathing, stronger joints for better movement, and fewer health issues. A dog that can run, play, and live longer without suffering.
Both are purebred.
Both are loved.
But they represent two very different visions for the future of the breed.
One follows tradition.
One challenges it.
Here’s the question:
Which path should the future of French Bulldogs take?
