A little French bulldog making lots of noise. The breed apparently originates at least in part from English bulldogs and the story is that English lace makers used the smaller pups as lap warmers while they worked and when the lace industry moved to France, they took their dogs with them. It is believed that in France they bred with terriers and the result were the bouledogues français, the French bulldogs.
