French Bulldogs are not considered dumb. In fact
they are known for their intelligence
affectionate nature
and playfulness. While they may have a stubborn streak
they are capable of learning and responding to training
demonstrating their cognitive abilities and adaptability (source [PetScreening](https//www.petscreening.com/blog/the-french-bulldogs-temperament)).

Redness in your Frenchie’s eye can be caused by a variety of things, including allergies, infection, or trauma. If your Frenchie’s eye is red and swollen, or if they are squinting or pawing at their eye, it is important to take them to the vet to rule out any serious underlying conditions.

French Bulldogs may lick excessively due to various reasons

Frenchies’ foul-smelling farts can be attributed to dietary factors such as food allergies or intolerances
leading to excessive gas. Additionally
gulping air when eating can contribute to flatulence. Ensuring a high-quality diet and addressing potential food sensitivities may help alleviate this issue (source [Le Pepite Frenchies](https//lepepitefrenchies.com/why-do-french-bulldogs-fart-so-much/)).

French bulldogs can eat watermelon but should not eat the rind or seeds. Watermelon is a good source of hydration and vitamins, and it can help to keep your French bulldog cool in the summer.

How to train a French Bulldog not to bite

Start early. Puppies learn bite inhibition from their mothers and littermates. If you adopt an older French Bulldog, you may need to work with a professional trainer.
Redirect biting. When your French Bulldog bites, say ouch in a high-pitched voice and immediately redirect its attention to a toy.
Never punish your French Bulldog for biting. This will only make the problem worse.
Be patient and consistent. Training a French Bulldog not to bite takes time and patience. With consistent training, you can teach your French Bulldog to control its biting.

Lilac merle French bulldogs can cost anywhere from $5,000 to $10,000, depending on the breeder and the dog’s lineage.
