Friendly Acres French Bulldogs

Shannon T.

Breeder of French Bulldogs

Meet the breeder

I'm Shannon T., the breeder behind Friendly Acres French Bulldogs located in Jacksonville, FL. We have been Frenchie lovers and in home breeders for over 10 years. We live for our dogs and all of our babies no matter how old or young. We are available for the lifetime of our pups for any questions or concerns that may arise. And look forward to pupdates from their familes. We require a video chat and a short questionnaire from anyone that applies for a Friendly Acres puppy. We only breed once, sometimes twice a year but our puppies are worth the wait. They are health and trait tested amd come home knowing their name if chosen as well as basic commands like sit and recall. Puppies are grass pad and crate trained and above all else are loved and have confidence.

Q. & A. with Shannon

  • Why did you start breeding?

    I started as a Frenchie owner and decided that there is nothing like a French Bulldog. I wanted to share my family and my beautiful dogs with the world. Theres no better way than to have puppies.

  • What makes your program special?

    We are extremely selective and only breed for health!! We may not have the newest designer colors but our dogs are structurally sound and great breathers. The most important things about a French Bulldog!

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

    Our puppies include cream and fawn. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.

  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
