Description

While some have the ability to swim averagely well, most would sink like an anchor if they are put in a body of water where they can’t reach the bottom. Preferably, this should be done prior to it being filled up with water in case it takes a while for the message to sink in. Their muscles make them sink: French Bulldogs have a dense body structure with a high muscle-to-fat ratio. Unlike buoyant breeds like Labradors, they struggle to stay afloat. Their heavy body weight makes it difficult to maintain a natural swimming position and stay above the water surface. While all dogs are descendants of wolves, which are natural swimmers, some dog breeds have physical characteristics that make swimming more difficult for them. These breeds include bulldogs, pugs, bull terriers, basset hounds, boxers, corgis and dachshunds. All of these breeds have flat faces, barrel-shaped bodies and/or short legs, which can make it difficult for them to keep their heads above water and swim effectively. If you have one of these breeds, it’s best to avoid bodies of water altogether or at least supervise your dog closely if they’re swimming.

How could we forget to mention the perfect placement of the sturdy handle that makes pulling your dog out of water simply effortless? The low-lying handle is enhanced with reflective accents and a light loop for better visibility underwater or in dark.

They can’t regulate their body temperatures well and have difficulty breathing in the heat. In cold weather, they can experience hypothermia and frostbite in a short time. Warp Up Adjustable Design. It’s important to get a snug fit without causing chafing. The more adjustable straps a vest has, the easier it is to match your dog’s unique body shape. The short answer is no. No, they absolutely cannot swim. There may be a few cases of French Bulldogs taking well to doggy paddle, but overall, the consensus is that French Bulldogs are not strong swimmers.

Ready for your best four-legged friend to keep you company this winter? Give your pup a French bulldog designer vest for some extra warmth and style. If you are considering getting a French Bulldog, be aware that they are a very social breed and have been bred to be companion dogs. This means that they may become anxious if left alone for too long and could potentially damage your home in their attempt to find you. It is therefore advisable to only leave them for no more than 4 hours at a time. What dog breeds can’t swim? Its handle has to be strong and be able to lift the dog’s weight even the heavier ones without breaking. It’s portable, comes in various sizes, doesn’t need inflating so won’t pop with claw scratches, and is slip resistant. You can use it for your kids too. A paddling pool is a great way to help your Frenchie cool down on those hot summer days, and they will love paddling about and splashing in the water.

Regardless of the fact that they are naturally unequipped to dealing with water, a lot of Frenchies seem to love stuff. Especially in summers when temperatures rise, French Bulldogs, much like humans will have trouble regulating temperature and will look for other sources such as bodies of water to help cool down. To make matters worse, many French bulldogs love water. No-one seems to have told them they aren’t great swimmers! Comfortable. Taking your Frenchie swimming is meant to be fun, but your pet won’t enjoy it if he feels uncomfortable. While comfort is usually dependent on fitting, I recommend vests with underarm padding for a French bulldog. No matter what height the water reaches, your French Bulldog should always be supervised near water. Make sure you fill the pool so it’s about chest deep on the Frenchie (just over ankle deep for a human) and allow them a chance to free-roam in their own personal kiddie pool.

What causes Frenchies to be unsuited to water is in their body shape and structure. With their short, stubby legs, compact size, and non-existent schnozzle, it’s no wonder that French Bulldogs have trouble swimming. Dress your little gremlin in a fashionable jumpsuit, perfect for brisk walks and snowball fights. In these cold winter months, spend more time with your pup and make it feel warm on every pawdventure. Looking for the safest and the best way to make your Frenchie swim like a swan? Dragon French Bulldog Swimming Vest will definitely become your pet's life-saver whenever he/she enjoys water adventures.Short legs and compact build: The physical structure of French Bulldogs, with short legs and a compact body, hinders their ability to paddle effectively. Their short limbs don’t provide the necessary leverage and propulsion for efficient swimming, resulting in exhaustion or difficulty staying afloat. French bulldogs are at greater risk than most though. Frenchies are naturally poor swimmers, mainly due to their top heavy body and short legs. They also have flat snouts that make it difficult to stay above water. It also features a grabbable handle, D-ring hook for a leash and has reflective accents so you can easily spot your Frenchie in the water. Any downsides? Buoyancy. The amount of flotation material is especially important for French bulldogs, who struggle to keep their head above water. Look for a life vest that has both side and belly panels, to keep your pet riding high in the water.
