French Bulldog Figurine | Mini French Bulldog | French Bulldog Replica - 3in. x 2in. - 1 Piece (sl100304)

This is a French bulldog figurine from Safari Ltd.(r). The Bulldog originated in England, and as they became popular companion dogs they were often mixed with other breeds including Pugs and Terriers to make them smaller. As people from England traveled and moved to France, they often brought their smaller bulldogs with them. Soon the dogs became very popular in France, and England began sending bulldogs to France with traits that were undesirable in the breed. Ironically, these traits would become breed standard in the French Bulldog, like their large, erect ears. This mini French bulldog is hand painted with fine detailing for a realistic look. This French bulldog replica would make a great educational teaching tool, toy for a child, or a gift for a French bulldog lover! This miniature French bulldog is made out of hard plastic that is BPA/phthalate/lead free. Sold as one piece per package.
