The French Bulldog is a small-sized molossian breed that is known for its powerful and muscular build, short and stocky body, and smooth coat. The breed has a snub nose, erect ears, and a naturally short tail. A French Bulldog must have an active, intelligent, and very muscular appearance without any exaggeration that could spoil its general harmony and movement. The length of the body between the point of the shoulder and the point of the buttocks is slightly longer than its height at the withers. The length of the muzzle is about 1/6 of the total length of the head.
