Hey friends! This week on the pod, we’re tackling one of the most talked-about (and controversial) dog breeds out there—the French Bulldog. We’re diving into everything from their adorable beginnings and breed history to the not-so-cute health issues they’re facing today. We’re talking airway problems, spine issues, skin flare-ups, and even GI drama. And yes, we kick things off with a spicy hot take on dog breeders—buckle up.
