A Lesson I've learned from my French Bulldogs...

Give each other some space...

 

My French bulldogs don’t understand some of my hobbies, like Facebook or reading. I don’t grasp the joy they get from chasing birds or rolling in mud. (Really?) Still, we get along splendidly. In fact, having time for each of us to pursue our individual hobbies keeps us happy and well balanced. After all, everyone needs some personal space from time to time.

A little extra work and attention goes a long way toward making our relationships stronger. So thanks to all of our French bulldogs for setting a great example and helping us humans be better people!

 

 

French Bulldogs are Loyal

Be loyal

 

French Bulldogs don’t complain to their friends when we leave dirty dishes in the sink, gain a few pounds or show up late for an evening walk. I’ve never seen a French bulldog make someone look bad. Normally they make us look better. At least that is what ours think! Learn from your Frenchie to be loyal to those you love.

 

 

Your French Bulldog just wants you to be Yourself

Be yourself

 

In the words of the great sage RuPaul, “If you can’t love yourself, how... you gonna love somebody else?” Dogs have no interest in being anyone but themselves. I think this is why they can show affection so easily. They don’t want to impress. They just want to love. Let's show that we are Thankful and share the love!

French Bulldogs Remind us to Have FUN!

Don’t forget to have fun

 

I have never met a French bulldog who was too busy to have fun,,but I have met plenty of people who are. (And at times, I’ve been one.) Life is too short not to play and feel good with those we care about.

 

Learn to Love from Your French Bulldog

Show love in big and small ways

 

From laying their heads on our laps while we watch a movie to barking wildly and running in circles when we take them to the park, our French bulldogs let us know we are loved every single day.

French bulldogs know how to Embrace the Power of Silence

Embrace the power of silence

Listening is hard work. Many of us (myself included) spend more time waiting for a turn to speak than paying attention to what others are telling us. Our dogs are never waiting to talk. They simply cock their heads and try their best to understand our message. You have to love that!

French Bulldogs Teach us to "Treat" other With Love...

Treat your loved ones even better than they deserve

 

We should all aspire to be the types of people our French bulldogs think we are. The boost I get from my Frenchies’s adoration reminds me to give that gift to others.

 

Speaking of Treats I hope that everyone that sent us a picture of their French Bulldog in their Halloween costume enjoyed the yummy Grandma Lucy's all natural pumpkins treats that we mailed out!
