I'm Heather C., the breeder behind North Coast Frenchies located in Johannesburg, MI. We are crazy French Bulldog owners! Our Frenchies are family members first and foremost. They reside in our loving household with us. We carefully place each puppy with a family that is best suited for them! We keep our program small, home-based, and simple. Our goal is to breed beautiful, ideal family companions for others to enjoy for years to come!
Q. & A. with Heather
Why did you start breeding?
We have been breeding dogs for years. We have had Dachshunds, Airedales, Rottweilers, Shepards, and black Labs. It was natural to move on to breeding French Bulldogs. We love these perfect little specimens of a breed. They are such a joy!
What makes your program special?
We have great family lines, so we breed great family members. We LOVE these little dogs and want to share them with you and your family. Our focus is on making the transition from our home to yours as easy as possible, and we individually work with each little pup to ensure they are healthy, well-rounded, and prepared to excel in their new forever home!
What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies include brindle, cream, and fawn. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
