However, a harsh coat is not typical in a Frenchie (I'm talking about a true harsh coat, like a terrier). It could be that the dog you saw isn't getting proper nutrition. The shine comes from inside and out! I use a natural bristle brush on my Frenchie at least three times a week. A chamois will also bring oils to the surface. Use a good quality shampoo and conditioner when you bathe (not too often!) Frenchies can be prone to skin problems, and it's best to catch those early. A daily spritz with distilled water and wipedown with the chamois will help remove dust and impurities from his coat. Whether you feed a raw diet or a mix of kibble, chicken, etc., make sure your pup is getting what he needs for his overall health. I also use a powdered supplement and flax oil for all of our dogs. Did his breeder give you some guidance regarding diet and grooming? You also might look at the AKC website for some publications about French Bulldogs, or attend a show and talk to a breeder/exhibitor. Good luck--they are wonderful dogs! Dog Food Secrets!

You can keep it in good condition with grooming and premium kibble, but that's about it. Start a Doggie Daycare
