Fluffy Frenchie Puppies for Sale in Tennessee, Raised in Ohio
The Puppy Lodge has Fluffy Frenchie puppies for sale in Tennessee, and we send them south from our home base in Fresno, in Coshocton County, Ohio. They are purebred French Bulldogs with one difference you notice right away. Their silky coat grows out to two or three times the length you see on a smooth-coated Frenchie, with the extra length gathered on the neck, chest, and ears. Under it you get the usual Frenchie shape, low and sturdy, and most grown dogs weigh 16 to 28 pounds. They tend to be easygoing clowns who want a spot on the couch next to you.
Tennessee runs a long way east to west, so the distance to our kennel changes a lot across the state. Bristol, Johnson City, and Kingsport in the northeast sit about six hours away by car, and Memphis is nearer ten. Browse our Fluffy Frenchie page for current puppies and upcoming litters to see who is open.
Our Current Fluffy Frenchies and How Tennessee Buyers Hold One
Every puppy on this page has a reserve button, and checkout is online. The starting price is $2,895, and color, gender, and genetics can push an individual puppy higher. To hold a puppy, you pay a $200 deposit. We cannot refund it if you cancel, though it can be moved over to a different puppy that has not been claimed.
We do not keep a waitlist, and each puppy goes to the family whose reservation comes in first. Litters that have not arrived yet get listed too, and a deposit on one of those saves you a pick. A FaceTime call can be arranged first, so you can see a puppy move and play before you commit. Credova handles financing with a short application on its website. Any puppy you see here can travel to your home in Tennessee.

The Trip South: Getting Your Puppy to Tennessee
We choose among the three options below together, on a phone call scheduled after your reservation. Frenchies have short, flat faces, so our puppies travel only in climate-controlled spaces and never in a cargo hold.
Door Delivery Anywhere in Tennessee (Our Pick)
Home delivery is the option we suggest for most Tennessee families. It is the most popular choice among our buyers overall, and it keeps you from having to drive to an airport. A professional pet transport service does the driving, bringing your puppy down in a temperature-controlled van. Before the van leaves, a vet gives your puppy a checkup. Your puppy gets its own crate for the ride, and you get progress reports as it travels. You pay around $350 for this, and the fee stays the same across Tennessee.
Vans pull out of Fresno early on Tuesdays. Arrival depends on the route that week, and we confirm the likely arrival window with you on our planning call.
In-Cabin Flights to Tennessee Airports
For a nanny flight, a trained handler keeps your puppy close on a regular passenger flight. For the whole trip it stays in the cabin, tucked under the seat in a soft carrier that meets airline rules. Photos and video clips come to your phone while you wait, and most of these deliveries finish the same day. You and the handler meet at baggage claim in Nashville (BNA), Memphis (MEM), Chattanooga (CHA), McGhee Tyson in Alcoa near Knoxville (TYS), or Tri-Cities Airport in Blountville (TRI).
Only puppies 8 weeks and up can fly with a nanny, and puppy plus carrier have to stay under 20 pounds. A licensed veterinarian signs off on a health certificate before departure. Each nanny trip is priced on its own and runs higher than van delivery, and storms can now and then push a flight back. For West Tennessee, where the van has the longest haul, flying gets your puppy home sooner.
Coming to Fresno Yourself
If you would like to drive up, we can set a pickup appointment at our kennel. At the kennel you can meet the puppy's mother and look around, and we review the vaccine history, microchip, and guarantee together. Even from the Tri-Cities, the round trip adds up to about twelve hours of driving, so pickup makes the most sense if you plan to stay the night or were already coming to Ohio.

The Ohio Fluffy Frenchie Breeder Serving Tennessee and What We Test For
There are likely Frenchie breeders a shorter drive from your home, so we want to explain what we do differently. The fluffy coat shows up only in a puppy that got the long-hair gene from its mother as well as its father. We run a DNA panel on each dog before it is ever bred, checking the genes behind its coat, furnishings, and eye color. Those results show us which matches will give long-coated puppies and what colors a litter could carry, all before any breeding happens. Our parent dogs go through health screening too, and a sound frame and open nostrils count for a lot when we pick breeding dogs. Screening cannot catch everything, though it makes an inherited problem much less likely. Your puppy is also protected by a three-year written guarantee against genetic and congenital conditions, and that protection extends to hip and elbow problems.
Our family has more than 13 years of experience raising dogs. We own all of our breeding dogs, and any outside stud we bring in has to clear the same testing. A portion of our litters are born and raised at the original kennel in Fresno. The others come from a closed group of nearby breeders who raise our dogs and nobody else's. They follow the testing and care standards we set.
Frenchies have a hard time in hot weather, so we keep the climate controlled in all of the buildings where our dogs live. The tile floors stay warm through the winter, geothermal cooling takes over in the summer, and outdoor play is supervised. Once a week, on a set schedule, a veterinarian from Danville Veterinary Clinic comes to examine the adult dogs and the newest litters. When they are three days old, puppies start quick Early Neurological Stimulation sessions from our Super Dog Program, which carry on for roughly two weeks. The puppies also get daily handling and playtime from our kids, and potty and crate training are underway before any puppy goes home, never younger than 8 weeks. Grooming, training, and the first days at home are all covered in our long-form guide to Fluffy French Bulldogs.
