*We must keep the puppies for 15 weeks and to America 4 months. There are also countries that have their own different requirements.
The first 10 to 14 days consists mainly of eating, sleeping and growing so only the blanket they sleep on should be changed every day. We leave them alone as much as possible.
Every day we clean the whelping box and put a clean soft blanket in it, and then they lie back under the heat lamp with the tummy in the air or they drink a bit at their mommy.
There are breeders who weigh the puppies every day and we did that in the past, but if you have enough experience that’s no longer necessary. If they have nice full bellies and they’re happy then let them sleep, that’s better for the puppy, try to stay a bit with nature. Only if we feel like something is wrong and suspect that the puppies don’t get enough milk, or that we suspect that something else is going on we will weigh them, but if you have enough experience you will notice that quickly (of course we keep a very close eye the pups) If we have a bad feeling then we immediately go to the vet (day and night), we won’t sit and wait.
A good mother knows herself when she needs to feed and automatically turns to her other side with every feed, after drinking she will wash the tummies and the pups’ butts so that they start to poop and everything flows well.
Some mothers have to get used to a first litter, give them time and put the pups so that they can drink and the mother gets used to it. Then show the butts and tummies of her pups and reward her when she licks, usually it will be fine. (We have never experienced this ourselves with the French Bulldogs)
If it’s the case that they don’t change and she doesn’t care about the pups after all the time you put in them, then she’s not suitable for breeding, in nature the puppies would not survive. But as a house dog she will certainly be a companion for life. However, it’s important to feed the pups immediately with special replacement breast milk, for sale at the pet store and veterinarians (it’s wise to have this before delivery in the house)
Between 3 and 4 weeks old we start feeding meat (95% pure meat and 5% vegetables) and off course they still drink at the mother.
This meat is optimally tailored to the needs of ‘small wolves. Original food after the example of the wolf and they eat that fairly quickly and off course they still drink with the mother. For more detailed information about the food we give, raising our puppies and socialization CLICK HERE
In addition, they get Green Lipped Mussel powder once a day through their food (good for joints and mobility, building and maintaining healthy cartilage and stimulation and formation of joint fluid (Synovia).
Then the time of cleaning the pee and poop. Good mothers will keep everything clean for a long time but even then you have to mop it yourself regularly. Hygiene is extremely important!!!
*Also the induction phase (3 to 5 weeks) you don’t have much work with a French Bulldog puppy (this varies per breed) they’re easy. You take them on your lap more often and cuddle with them, they play with each other, with the mother and with toys, you learn them to eat independently, play outside the puppy box and with the help of cardboard they’ll as good as house-trained within 5 weeks. And of course they like to play with the visitors and whether they’re adults or children, they both love it, it’s just in their character so you don’t have to drag them everywhere.
When they are 4 weeks old they have had a pipette in their neck against fleas and ticks and they can play outside on our puppy play field and when they are big enough they can play with the French Bulldogs on the big field and that is a big party. We also have a nice heated indoor playground for cold and rainy days.
With us there regularly rides freight traffic, tractors, buses, cars, and occasionally a motorbike on the roads, they hear cows, horses and wagons, so they don’t look at anything.
it’s nice to lie in the grass so they can climb on you and then lie down with you
With 6 weeks they get their first vaccination and microchip. Also the puppies are thoroughly checked to see if they’re healthy. If they have had the first vaccination, we also request the pedigrees.
More information about the different phases of the pup can be read here CLICK HERE
Only from 6/7 weeks they need more attention, and then the hard time really comes, they really have to get to know everything (optimal socialization) then they also walk with the adult French Bulldogs where they learn a lot from.
it’s so fun to see them play pull rope, such a small thing against a big bull but the brothers and sisters come to help, that’s a really amusing sight. They discover so much in a short time and enjoy everything and are not afraid of anything.
They also have to learn to walk on the leash and that’s quite a job at the beginning.
The socialization normally takes place at the new owner, but because of the law, you’ll have to handle it yourself. It’s hard but it also has so many good sides that we enjoy it.
When they leave here they’re house trained, walk neatly on the leash, are not afraid of anything, are used to everything, and would love to be cuddled. They give love and also expect it back. They like to lie on your lap and love people.
