Every single pup is unique but there are four personality types of Frenchies that every single one of my pups have fallen into. What I do to help you understand the personality types is to explain them as Winnie the Pooh characters. We have the piglets, pooh bears, rabbits, and tiggers. They often don’t fall into one category and will overlap.

First, we have the piglets. We honestly do not have a lot of piglets but they definitely show up. They are pups who are a little more reserved and take a little bit of time adjusting to new things. When they do adjust they feel at home in their surroundings. These are the pups when I place them in a new surrounding and they take their time to look around, gently sniff the toys, and usually stay laying down longer before adventuring out. They are typically gentle souls and are a little less pushy about demanding attention. Ironically, these pups tend to be on the smaller side but not always.

We then have the Pooh Bears. These pups are laid back, tend to enjoy long naps, and move a little slower. Quite a few pups fall into this personality type. These pups are typically less territorial. If another pup wants a toy, they’re fine with it. They’ll just go get another one. Eating seems to be one of their favorite hobbies. I say they are like Pooh Bear meaning they’re pretty chill until they see their honey bucket. Then they have tunnel vision. Their honey bucket can be food, a particular toy, or a morning snuggle from you. These guys tend to be a little thicker as they tend to move a little less.

Thirdly, we have rabbits. Rabbits enjoy having something to do. Think about Rabbit gardening. The Frenchie version of this is really enjoying playing with their toys and chew on their bones. They have more energy than a Pooh Bear but are not hyper. Sometimes they are a bit bossy and like to tell others what to do. These pups usually go straight for the toys and do not dilly-dally about playing with them. Rabbits tend to be leaner than pooh bears as they move a bit more. I feel like if a Frenchie is a talker, they are typically rabbits.

Finally, we have the tiggers. These pups are extroverts. They act as if they have never met a stranger or new environment. They are the happy-go-lucky kind who have a constant smile on their face. They are not typically hyper but they do have a higher lever of energy than the others. They tend to be very drawn to people and want to be involved with whatever is going on. I also find these guys tend to be a littler leaner as they move a bit more than the others….especially the pooh bears.

In the videos about the pups, I discuss the personality type and I’ll label them according to the personality type that best fits them at that point. Realize as their personality develops they can transition to a different type. Some pups will be a combination. I would say we have quite a few Pooh/Rabbits. There are Rabbit/Tiggers and Piglet/Poohs as well. Make sure to watch the About Me videos. It’s important that you are properly matched with your pup personality wise. That is why we provide the videos with personality typing and schedule video calls for you to meet them. Feel free to reach out with any questions you may have about our pups and the four personality types of Frenchies.

Write down what you are looking for in a Frenchie pup and order it based off of importance. Some things to consider are color, sex (male or female), size, personality type, nose length, tail length, and overall body structure. This will help you select the pups you’d like to meet in the video call. There is something magical about seeing them at this time that you just know that’s the pup for you.
