Welcome to North Carolina Frenchies
We are a boutique French Bulldog program based in Raleigh, North Carolina, dedicated to becoming the healthiest and most responsibly run Frenchie breeding program along the east coast. As a French Bulldog Foundation of America (FBDFA) Verified Breeder, our program has demonstrated compliance with the health testing, documentation, and transparency requirements of the French Bulldog Foundation of America's Legacy of Health Program — an independent verification grounded in OFA health testing on our breeding dogs. Every litter we produce is thoughtfully planned, ethically bred, and raised with individualized care that supports proper socialization and strong early development. Our pairing decisions go far beyond basic registration requirements—each dam and sire is selected for exceptional health, structure, temperament, and genetic clarity, with comprehensive health testing guiding every breeding.
We take pride in producing Frenchies known for their reliable health, balanced structure, beautiful coats, and steady, family-friendly temperaments. Only puppies that meet our strict standards for health, quality, and temperament are made available through our program. Our commitment to our dogs extends well beyond adoption day, and we genuinely enjoy staying connected as our puppies grow in their new homes.

Our Services

Our French Bulldog puppies come with a price tag that reflects the quality care and support we provide. Pricing ranges from $6,000 to $7,000 and is determined by multiple factors including structure, coat color, pedigree, availability, and demand. We prioritize raising healthy, well-socialized puppies that meet the highest standards, ensuring every family receives a companion that exemplifies the best of the breed.
You can apply for a puppy through our puppy application. Once your application is submitted, we review it within 24–48 hours to ensure our puppies are matched with the most suitable homes. If approved, we’ll reach out to discuss what you’re looking for, answer any questions, and guide you through available puppies or upcoming litters. Our goal is to pair each family with the puppy that suits them best, and approved applicants may reserve their preferred puppy with a deposit. From there, we provide regular updates and support as your future puppy grows and prepares for their go-home date. -
All of our puppies are sold as companions unless breeding rights are purchased for an additional $2,500.
This fee is not just an added cost—it reflects the mentorship, education, and continued support I provide to families interested in responsibly breeding. Producing healthy French Bulldog litters requires experience, preparation, and guidance, and my goal is to ensure that anyone entering breeding does so with the right foundation for success.

For families who would like a more supported and intentional transition, we offer our Go Home Plus Transition Package starting at $375/week. This option allows your puppy to remain with us for an additional 1–2 weeks after they are ready to go home, during which we focus on routine building, confidence, and early exposure. The package includes continued daily care, crate exposure, leash introduction, handling, grooming exposure, and consistency with feeding and sleep schedules. Families will receive regular updates during this time to help ensure a smooth and confident transition once their puppy goes home.

We offer delivery to your home or nearest airport for an additional expense, starting at $500.

Our Mission
We are committed to upholding the highest standards of the French Bulldog breed. Our ethical breeding program goes well beyond the AKC requirements to produce healthy, beautiful pups who will live long, fulfilling lives. Each of our French Bulldog puppies is registered with the American Kennel Club and is acknowledged as an authentic and pure example of the breed. This extra care and consideration is all the more important for French Bulldogs as even AKC-registered Frenchies can suffer from numerous health issues. Our breeding program minimizes the chances that your puppy will inherit the congenital issues that decrease your pup’s quality of life, mobility, and lifespan, all while saving you thousands of dollars in vet bills.
FBDFA Verified Breeder
North Carolina Frenchies is proud to be a Verified Breeder through the French Bulldog Foundation of America (FBDFA). This independent verification confirms that our program meets the health testing, documentation, and transparency standards of the FBDFA's Legacy of Health Program — a designation grounded in verifiable OFA health testing on our breeding dogs. Being FBDFA Verified reflects our commitment to ethical breeding and to producing French Bulldogs whose health is backed by real, verifiable testing rather than promises alone.
Health Testing
At North Carolina Frenchies, health testing is a foundational part of our breeding program. Our dogs undergo Orthopedic Foundation for Animals (OFA) evaluations and PennHIP (University of Pennsylvania Hip Improvement Program) screening to assess structural soundness, joint integrity, and long-term mobility. In addition, we utilize Animal Genetics testing to screen for inherited genetic conditions and confirm color and trait inheritance. Together, these evaluations allow us to make informed breeding decisions that prioritize health, structure, and longevity. By investing in comprehensive health testing, we aim to reduce the risk of heritable conditions and provide our puppies with the strongest possible foundation for a healthy, active life.
Our Puppies
Our French Bulldogs are cherished members of our family whom we nurture around the clock. We are constantly by their side- and never more than 20 feet away- until they leave for their forever homes. This around-the-clock hands-on care ensures that each puppy receives the abundant love and attention they deserve. They are well-socialized when they join your home, and deterred from the bad habits that can begin within the first 8-12 weeks thanks to continuous contact with us, supervised interaction with their littermates, and consistent care.
