What is a Fluffy Frenchie mixed with?


A "Fluffy Frenchie" is not a mixed breed; rather, it is a purebred French Bulldog that possesses a rare recessive gene known as Fibroblast Growth Factor 5 (FGF5), which results in a longer, fluffier coat. This gene has always been present within the breed, even though it is not commonly expressed. It was not until, Don Chino, considered the best French Bulldog breeder in the world, utilized the "Fluffy Gene". Furthermore, for a French Bulldog to exhibit this long-haired trait, it must inherit two copies of the recessive gene, one from each parent. If only one parent carries the gene, the dog will be a carrier but will not display the long-hair trait. Therefore, Fluffy Frenchies are purebred French Bulldogs with a unique coat variation, not the result of mixing with other breeds.
