731 Frenchies

Melissa R.

Breeder of French Bulldogs

Meet the breeder

I'm Melissa R., the breeder behind 731 Frenchies located in Humboldt, TN. We provide family, loving, home grown babies. These babies are slept with and have not been introduced to the public until all vaccinations are complete. They also have not been introduced to the outdoors until vaccinations are complete. All of these puppies have been loved on by my children.

Q. & A. with Melissa

  • Why did you start breeding?

    After falling in love with the breed I felt that it was selfish to not share this joy with my community. In this world today, Everyone needs a Frenchie!

  • What makes your program special?

    I'm not just a breeder, these are our fur babies! The safety and well being of our puppies is our #1 priority. Our puppies are raised with love and are raised to be part of a family. This is more than just an avenue to create a dollar. We chose to do this to share with others the love that we have found with our frenchie girls.

  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies are fawn. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
