    Cortez was super fast to respond and such a pleasure to work with! Super organized - came prepared with all the paperwork. You can tell FamLee Frenchies treat their puppies like family and genuinely care about them. We are so excited to have Jack as part of our family now ❤️ Thank you, Cortez!

    Purchased a female french bulldog puppy from FamLee in April 2025. She is a happy, healthy, well-adjusted puppy and we love her dearly. Can certainly recommend to check with this breeder if looking for a french bulldog. If you would like registration paperwork for your puppy would recommend discussing that clearly in advance so that it is ready for you at pick-up time.

    Our entire experience with Cortez and Good Dog was great. From the moment we decided to move forward and get a puppy Cortez responded to our emails very quickly and answered all of our questions and concerns. We met part way to pick up our little girl. She is the sweetest little girl and we love her to death. We also enjoyed meeting and talking with Cortez. Now that we have her if we have questions we can call and Cortez is happy to answer them. We are more than happy with the way everything went! Harold & Nola
