they\u2019re just not physically built for rigorous activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>French Bulldogs fall under the non-sporting group because they\u2019re a&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.hsvma.org\/brachycephalic\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"5442\">brachycephalic breed<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The term \u201cbrachycephalic\u201d is used to describe flat-faced or short-nose dogs. Breeds that fall into this category aren\u2019t well-suited for intense aerobic exercise, especially in warm weather, because their short snouts make breathing difficult.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>French Bulldogs have narrow nostrils, smaller airways, larger tongues, and multiple folds in their throats, putting them at a higher risk of overheating and heat stroke due to lack of air.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although unfortunate, this \u201cdefect\u201d is among the many reasons people choose French Bulldogs as their lifetime companions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Their low-energy nature is an added benefit for elderly, lazy, and busy people who can\u2019t go out much.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because they don\u2019t require as much exercise as other dogs, owners aren\u2019t pressured to take them out to play every single day, multiple times a day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Frenchies are perfectly happy lounging around in the apartment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They only need 60 minutes of light play to stimulate their mental and physical health every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You don\u2019t even need to take them out if you have enough space for easy exercise in your home.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-fbb2c721\">\n<div class=\"gb-grid-wrapper gb-grid-wrapper-6e3a0a31\">\n<div class=\"gb-grid-column gb-grid-column-6d253442\"><div class=\"gb-container gb-container-6d253442\">\n\n<p class=\"p_nomargin_bottom\"><strong>You may also want to read:<br><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pawsinsider.com\/best-dog-food-for-german-shepherds\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"5443\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pawsinsider.com\/how-much-exercise-does-a-french-bulldog-need\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-lasso-id=\"5444\">How Much Exercise Does a French Bulldog Need?
