Fluffy Frenchie Puppies for Sale in West Virginia From Fresno, Ohio

You can bring home one of our Fluffy Frenchie puppies for sale in West Virginia from The Puppy Lodge, a family-run kennel in Fresno, Ohio. Each puppy is fully French Bulldog, and a double dose of the long-hair gene gives it a softer, longer coat. The sturdy frame and bat ears match any other Frenchie. Most adults land at 16 to 28 pounds. They are easygoing, affectionate dogs that like to stay near their family all day.

Fresno sits in Coshocton County in east-central Ohio, well inland from the Ohio River. West Virginia is about 2 to 6 hours from us by car, depending on where you live. The Northern Panhandle makes for the shortest trip, while the Eastern Panhandle and the southern counties take the longest. You can look over the Fluffy Frenchies we have listed right now, plus the litters we expect soon.

The Puppies Below and How West Virginia Families Reserve Them

Photos and a price are posted for each puppy below. Our starting price is $2,895, and it goes higher depending on a puppy's color, sex, and genetic makeup. When you find one you want, the $200 deposit and the rest of the checkout happen on our website. The deposit stays with us if you decide against buying, but it can be applied to any other unreserved puppy.

We don't keep a waitlist, so a puppy is taken by the first family to reserve it. Litters we are expecting are listed here as well, and you can put money down on one of those to claim a pick ahead of the birth. We are happy to show you a puppy on FaceTime before you commit, and you can apply online for Credova financing. After you reserve, we can get your puppy to West Virginia by pickup, van, or plane.

Fluffy Frenchie Pickup and Delivery Across West Virginia

We settle on a travel plan with you over the phone once your puppy is reserved. French Bulldogs have flat faces, so our puppies ride in a car or van or in a plane's passenger cabin, and never in cargo. Whichever route it takes, every puppy leaves with its current food packed for the trip.

Pickup at the Kennel (Our Suggestion for Most of the State)

Since we are this close, the simplest plan is usually to come get your puppy yourself. We book pickups by appointment, Monday through Saturday. You are welcome to see the kennel and meet your puppy's mother. Before you leave, we look over your puppy's vaccine history and microchip with you and walk through the guarantee.

Home Delivery for the East and South Ends of the State

If the drive doesn't fit your schedule, or you live toward the eastern or southern end of the state, home delivery is the better pick. Of our three options, it is the one people choose most. Professional pet transport drivers handle the trip in a custom van with its own climate control. A vet examines your puppy before the van pulls out. It gets a carrier of its own for the ride, and you receive progress updates from the driver.

Home delivery to any West Virginia address runs around $350. It is a short route from Fresno, and we give you the timing on our call.

Flight Nanny to Charleston, Huntington, or Bridgeport

A flight nanny is available too, though it is rarely needed this close to Ohio. Here, your puppy flies in the passenger cabin next to a trained handler. The puppy rides in a soft carrier below the seat, the handler sends pictures and clips from the trip, and the two of you connect at baggage claim for the handoff. Most of these deliveries are done within the same day. West Virginia International Yeager Airport in Charleston (CRW) is the state's busiest airport. Huntington Tri-State (HTS) and North Central West Virginia Airport in Bridgeport (CKB) can work as well. For the Eastern Panhandle, Washington Dulles (IAD) in Virginia is much closer than any of those.

For the flight, your puppy must be no younger than 8 weeks, and it has to stay under 20 pounds with its carrier included. Before it flies, a licensed vet fills out its health certificate. Each nanny trip is quoted for its specific flight, and the cost runs above the van fee. Storms can also delay a flight by a day or more.

Fluffy Frenchie Puppy Breeder Serving West Virginia Within Driving Distance

Being nearby means you can see where your puppy comes from, either on pickup day or on a visit before you reserve. We are a family of nine and have raised dogs for 13-plus years, and all of our Fluffy Frenchie parent dogs belong to us. If a litter's father comes from outside, he goes through our full testing before any breeding. Some litters are whelped and raised at the original Fresno kennel we started with. The remaining litters stay with a small, closed circle of nearby breeders who handle only Puppy Lodge dogs under our rules.

The fluffy coat is recessive, which means a puppy only gets it when the mother and father both pass along the gene. Before any pairing, we DNA test each parent's coat, furnishings, and eye color genes, so we know which litters can produce fluffy puppies before they arrive. We health screen the parents as well and lean toward dogs with solid structure and open nostrils. Screening cannot catch every issue, although it makes inherited trouble far less likely. Your puppy also has our written three-year guarantee against congenital and genetic conditions, and it covers hip and elbow problems too.

Since the breed struggles in hot weather, we hold the temperature steady in every kennel building. The tile floors have heat running under them in the cold part of the year, and a geothermal system cools the rooms once it warms up. Every week, on a regular schedule, Danville Veterinary Clinic visits to examine the grown dogs and the newest litters. Early Neurological Stimulation, which we call our Super Dog Program, begins on a puppy's third day and continues for close to two weeks. Each day our kids spend time holding the puppies and playing with them. Crate and potty training are underway by go-home day, which never comes before a puppy turns 8 weeks. For grooming and training tips after your puppy is home, see our Fluffy French Bulldog care and training guide.

Fluffy Frenchie FAQs Of West Virginia Families

Q: Does our puppy need to be registered with the county?

A: Yes, once it is older than six months. West Virginia has dog owners register each dog with their county assessor, who collects a small head tax and issues a tag. State law also requires a rabies vaccine by six months of age, and it can be given as early as three months. Bring the health record we send home to your first vet visit so your vet can schedule that shot.

Q: Can we take our Fluffy Frenchie to New River Gorge National Park?

A: Yes. Dogs are allowed on all of the park's trails as long as they stay on a leash 6 feet long or shorter. They can't go inside park buildings or visitor centers, and they can't join ranger programs. Pack water from home, since stream water can carry parasites, and pick a short trail that suits a small dog.

Q: Is a Fluffy Frenchie a good fit for a Morgantown apartment?

A: Usually, yes. Frenchies are one of the quieter small breeds and don't tend to bark at every noise in the hallway. Two or three short walks and a little play inside cover what they need each day. What matters more is how long the apartment sits empty, since they don't cope well with long hours alone. If classes or work keep you out most of the day, plan for someone to check in partway through.

Q: How should we set up the car for the ride home after pickup?

A: Frenchies are usually good travelers in the car. Put your puppy's carrier in the back seat where it won't slide around on curvy roads, and keep the car cool. Tuck in the blanket we send home with every puppy, since it carries the mother's scent and helps the puppy settle. On a longer drive, stop once or twice to offer water.
