Do French Bulldogs Sleep Through the Night? – Yes, and Here is Why

Do French Bulldogs Sleep Through the Night? On average, your adult Frenchie should sleep for around 12 to 14 hours per day. In that regard, most Frenchies can sleep all through the night without experiencing any problems.

During the day, however, your French bulldog will sleep at intervals of a few hours. Learning the sleeping habits of your French bulldog is essential. In this article, we will take you through everything you need to know about your Frenchie’s sleep patterns at night, and during the day.

French Bulldog Sleeping in Bed Through the Night

A French bulldog will want to sleep in your bed most of the time, because they crave companionship. Therefore, you will find that your French bulldog will resist your suggestion that it sleeps alone, on its bed.

That is why many owners complain about frenchies coming to their bed, and having no way to stop them politely. Try incorporating a few toys in their bed or crate, and your French bulldog will slowly start learning to sleep in their bed.

However, there are those who prefer sleeping with their dogs in their beds, but this might not be the case for you. If that is the case, then your best option is to buy your Frenchie a bed, and place it next to yours.

French Bulldog Sleeping In A Crate At Night

To ensure that your French bulldog gets enough sleep, try incorporating a crate. The advantage of using a crate is that your Frenchie will soon learn, at night there is nothing much to do but sleep. Ensure that you get a comfortable crate that fits your French bulldog perfectly.

Soon enough, your French bulldog will feel comfortable in the crate, and you can all sleep comfortably. Once you teach your French bulldog to feel at home and secure in the crate, then you may at times leave it for a few hours, alone in the crate.

Your frenchie will not see the need to follow you everywhere as it did before.

French Bulldog Sleeping On Their Back

French bulldogs sleep on their back when they need to cool their bodies. Sleeping on their back is a comfortable position, which gives them a chance to expose their belly. Their belly has less fur than the rest of the body, which allows them to cool faster.

When you see your French bulldog sleeping on their backside, then it is a sign that they feel secure and comfortable in the home.

Conclusion – French Bulldog Sleeping Through the Night

Your French bulldog’s sleeping habits can help you detect whenever there is a problem. However, sleeping through the night is perfectly okay for frenchies. Consider using either a bed or crate for your Frenchie, depending on what suits you best.

Overall, you will have much success if you make its sleeping quarter warm and comfortable.
