What is a Frenchton dog?

A Frenchton is a designer breed that is a cross between a French Bulldog and a Boston Terrier. They combine the distinct features of both breeds, resulting in a small, sturdy dog with a friendly demeanor.

How big do Frenchtons get?

Frenchtons are generally small dogs, typically weighing between 15 to 25 pounds and standing about 11 to 14 inches tall at the shoulder.

What is the temperament of a Frenchton?

Frenchtons are known for their friendly and sociable nature. They are typically affectionate, playful, and get along well with children and other pets, making them excellent family pets.

Do Frenchtons require a lot of exercise?

While Frenchtons are active and enjoy playtime, they do not require excessive exercise. Regular short walks and play sessions are usually sufficient to keep them healthy and stimulated.

Are Frenchtons easy to train?

Frenchtons are generally eager to please and quite smart, making them relatively easy to train. However, consistent positive reinforcement techniques work best, as these dogs may also display a stubborn streak at times.

Puppy Training Importance and Benefits

The Importance and Benefits of Training for Your Frenchton Puppy

Training your puppy is an important positive investment into the future of both your puppy and your home.

A well-trained puppy is most likely to become an excellent family member understanding your behavioral expectations, your house-rules, and healthy safety parameters.

Training can also strengthen the bond between you and your pup, as it helps create a trusting relationship between the two of you.

Many new puppy owners might find the idea of puppy training intimidating, especially if it’s their first time owning a dog. However, we offer training options for you through our sister company Crockett Doodles located around South Carolina and North Carolina.

Puppy Training Overview

Training typically lasts 2–8 weeks, with a minimum of 2 weeks. We highly recommend at least 3 weeks for the best results.

Our pricing is an all-inclusive rate that includes the food, vaccines and continued healthcare.

Extra fees may apply for transportation.

How do I sign up for a Puppy Trainer?

Once you are matched to your Frenchton pup, you’ll be sent an email introducing our current training options that also includes a link to our Training Questionnaire. We will not be able to match you to a trainer until after you are matched to your puppy.

Simply submit the requested information that asks for your input about your puppy’s living environment, your specific requests, and any special circumstances that should be considered such as training to pee pads for apartment living, preparation for other pets in your home, specific command words, etc. This will help our Training Coordinator understand your goals to help match your puppy to the best Trainer to accomplish those goals. After submitting your questionnaire, our Training Coordinator will be glad to help answer any further questions you may have (like applicable fees, the Trainer’s environment, special requests, etc.)

Healthy Expectations

At Crockett Pups, our Puppy Trainers are excellent and experienced. That said, we need to be sure you understand that each puppy is wonderfully unique. The longer your puppy is in training, the more your puppy will retain. Please keep in mind that we cannot fully train any puppy within the number of weeks of training we offer.

Training is an ongoing commitment between you and your puppy for at least the first year of their life. We will make sure your puppy has an understanding of the commands you request, but the final success of your puppy’s training (crate, potty, leash, etc.) largely depends on your consistent follow-through with the schedules and procedures that your Trainer has been using with your puppy.
