Frenchie Owner and AKC nerd: Geographically from France, however the breeders were English, so still considered English dogs.
ChekhovsGun
French bulldogs are oddly proportioned enough that it makes it near impossible for them to mate naturally. Maybe after creating the dog 1/2
ChekhovsGun
The english decided they can't call this genetically broken dog english, so they blamed the french for its creation. 2/2

(Note:this is a joke.In reality,both the english and french claim to invented the french bulldog,since its a mix of english and french dogs)
