Why Berkeley Families Choose The Puppy Lodge for Their Fluffy Frenchie
Fluffy French Bulldogs are rare, and finding one from a breeder who actually understands the genetics behind them matters. The fluffy coat comes from a recessive Long Hair gene that both parents must carry, and not every breeder tests for it. We perform health and genetic tests on all of our parent dogs, like coat traits, eye color, and furnishings, so we know exactly what we’re producing with every litter. When you buy a Fluffy Frenchie from us, you’re not getting a guessing game.
Because French Bulldogs are brachycephalic, they can be sensitive to heat and temperature extremes. Our kennel is climate controlled with heated tile floors in the winter and geothermal cooling in the summer, which is especially important for a breed that can struggle in hot weather. Our adults and puppies also have access to large outdoor play areas on our five-acre farm in Central Ohio, where they get fresh air and exercise in a safe environment.
We’re a family of nine, five girls, two boys, and two parents who’ve been doing this for over 13 years. Our kids are in with the puppies every day, playing with them and handling them from the time they’re born. For a breed that bonds so closely with people, that kind of early socialization makes a real difference. Every puppy also goes through Early Neurological Stimulation between days 3 and 16, which strengthens cardiovascular development, builds stress tolerance, and improves immune response.
We stand behind every puppy with a 3-year health guarantee. Our vet at Danville Veterinary Clinic visits our kennel every week, and we’re certified through the Purdue University Canine Care Program, one of the few breeders in the country who can say that. Every puppy comes up to date on vaccinations, dewormed, microchipped, and with a blanket carrying mom’s scent. We welcome visitors by appointment and deliver puppies nationwide right to your door.
About Fluffy French Bulldogs
The Fluffy French Bulldog is a rare variation of the standard French Bulldog, also known as a Fluffy Frenchie or Long Haired French Bulldog. They are 100 percent purebred French Bulldogs with the same build, personality, and bat ears the breed is famous for. The only difference is their coat. While standard Frenchies have short, smooth fur, the Fluffy carries a naturally occurring recessive gene called the Long Hair gene, or LH gene, which produces a softer, medium length coat that is most noticeable around the ears, chest, and neck. For a puppy to have this fluffy coat, both parents must carry the LH gene. If only one parent carries it, the puppy will have a standard short coat but may pass the gene on to future generations. The French Bulldog breed originated in the mid 1800s from Toy Bulldogs brought to France by English lace workers and quickly became a favorite among Parisian society before making its way to America. Today the French Bulldog is recognized by the AKC in the Non-Sporting Group and is consistently one of the most popular breeds in the country. Fluffy French Bulldogs are compact, sturdy dogs that typically stand 11 to 13 inches tall and weigh between 16 and 28 pounds, with males generally on the heavier end. Their temperament is what has made this breed so beloved. They are playful, affectionate, easygoing, and social dogs that thrive on human companionship and do well with children, other pets, and just about any living situation from apartments to larger homes. They do not require a lot of exercise compared to many breeds, with around 30 to 45 minutes of daily walks and play being enough to keep them happy. They are intelligent and respond well to training, though they can show a stubborn side from time to time. Their fluffy coat is relatively low maintenance compared to many longer coated breeds, needing brushing two to three times a week and professional grooming occasionally to stay in good shape. As a brachycephalic breed with a shorter snout, Fluffy French Bulldogs can be sensitive to heat and heavy exercise, so it is important to keep them cool in warm weather and avoid overexertion. With proper care, a quality diet, and regular vet visits, Fluffy French Bulldogs typically live 10 to 12 years.

How Puppy Delivery Works To Berkeley, California
The easiest way to get your Fluffy Frenchie puppy home to Berkeley is through our professional flight nanny service. Your puppy flies in-cabin with a dedicated handler right into your nearest airport, right beside the handler the entire way. We also offer climate-controlled ground transport by delivery van if you prefer a door-to-door option. Since Berkeley is about 42 to 44 hours hours from our kennel in Ohio, an in-person pickup is a bigger commitment, but you’re always welcome to visit by appointment if you’d like to meet your puppy’s parents and see our operation firsthand.
Once your Fluffy Frenchie puppy is reserved, our team will reach out to schedule delivery to Berkeley. Every puppy receives a final vet check before delivery. Ground deliveries depart each Tuesday morning, so just reserve and schedule by noon on Monday to make that week’s delivery. Whether your puppy arrives by delivery van or flight nanny, most families have their new puppy in their arms within just 4 days.
1. Flight Nanny Delivery
You can have your Fluffy Frenchie puppy flown into a nearby commercial airport by a professional puppy flight nanny. Your puppy will sit right next to the flight nanny the entire flight and will never be stored with cargo or luggage. As with ground transport, your puppy will be cared for and looked after until you can pick them up at the airport. This option is more expensive but gets your puppy to you as quickly as possible. We can deliver to your nearest airport, including San Francisco Bay Oakland International Airport, and Buchanan Field.
2. Ground Transport
We use a professional puppy delivery service to deliver your Fluffy Frenchie puppy via a climate-controlled delivery van. These vans are temperature-controlled, and the puppies are well cared for on their journey to your home in Berkeley, California. This is our most popular delivery option, giving your puppy a safe, calm ride right to your door.
3. In-Person Pickup at Our Kennel
If you are willing to make the trip, you can come right to our home and kennel to pick up your Fluffy Frenchie puppy yourself. This option lets you meet the puppy, their parents, and see our kennel in person. We openly welcome visitors by appointment and love showing people our breeding operation so they can see for themselves why we are a step above your average breeder.

Regular brushing two or three times weekly along with a groomer trim every six to eight weeks covers the long fluffy coat's needs. In a city like Berkeley, lining up a reliable groomer comes easy because of the density of pet services in urban areas. A good groomer usually shows up within a few blocks of home for most owners. The brushing routine becomes part of the daily pattern, and the city debris in the coat is something the routine handles across seasons.
Across the year, daily life stays flexible because of the mild city climate. Almost any hour works for walks because temperate weather stays comfortable through the year. Summer afternoons push walks toward cool hours because the flat face means slower cooling than longer-nosed dogs, but otherwise the routine stays steady. The long fluffy coat picks up city debris year round, asking for two or three weekly brushings with a groomer trim every six to eight weeks. None of the heavy seasonal habits other regions require apply here in mild city conditions.
