For several years I searched for a reputable French bulldog breeder and finally found Bijou French bulldogs. I knew the minute I finished reading through the website that I would one day purchase a puppy from Deb. We previously had a Frenchie with neurological and other health issues so we learned the hard way how important it is to choose a reputable and knowledgeable breeder. I continued looking at her website from time to time. Then one day Deb posted a breeding that sounded perfect. I got in touch with her and explained the importance to me of finding a breeder that took pride in their breeding program. She answered all of my questions and I was sold. So the deposit was paid and our precious Augie came into our lives. He’s everything we had hoped for. He gets along so well with people, children, dogs, and isn’t afraid of anything. He’s a fun, adorable little clown. If you are seriously looking for a French bulldog, I strongly encourage you to get in touch with Deb. She will be available to answer your questions and will address any concerns. We’ve had many phone calls and plenty of texts. She has always shown concern and has amazing knowledge and insight about the breed. I know she will always be available for me with any questions I have, big or small. Augie has brought such joy into our lives, and I wouldn’t change a thing! Thank You Deb!

We found Deb & her Bijou babies shortly after losing our 10 year old Frenchie. We weren’t necessarily looking to add a puppy at the time, but more so doing research for when the time was right. Deb understood and remained in contact with us answering questions and offering advice, and when she had the puppy we immediately knew was meant to be ours she continued to update us on progress until Blanche was ready to come home. Deb is very knowledgeable about the breed and her attention to details regarding their health really impressed us. Deb made the entire process seamless, and Blanche is the most perfect little lady. We’ve since referred multiple friends and family that have inquired about frenchie (and english) pups and we will continue to do so for as long as we can. When the time comes to add to our own family we will definitely be calling Deb!

When we decided it was time to start looking for a French bulldog puppy we knew wanted to use a breeder this time. I found Deb and from day one, she was always there to answer any questions. She had us FaceTime to “meet” our puppy LUlu! She was just a pleasure and always helpful! We purchased and picked up LUlu, our new wonderful addition to our family. She is so smart and has an absolutely amazing disposition. Everywhere I go with her, I get stopped, people always comment that she is the most beautiful frenchie ever (even my vet)! We cannot wait to get a second frenchie from Deb!

We came across Deb while we were searching for our first frenchie. We contacted Deb and spoke on the phone for about an hour and a half during our first phone call. She was super supportive, informative and incredibly helpful in providing advice. She also asked us questions to make sure we were the right fit and if we  would provide a safe environment for the frenchie. We got to meet Uniii through Facetime and we immediately fell in love with him at first sight. We were so impressed with Deb's knowledge about this breed, her love and passion for each and everyone of them. Whenever we had questions, Deb would answer back right away and would give us tips which has helped us tremendously.  When we take Uniii out and about, people are always so impressed with how calm and good temperament he is. Uniii is super friendly and loves to be around people. He loves learning new tricks, in fact, he is so smart that I was able to teach him basic commands like 'paw' and 'sit' at 6 months. He is so easy, mellow and chill to take care of, that we are thinking of getting him another sibling for him. It will definitely be through Deb again. Thank you so much to Bijou French Bulldogs for providing us with our very first frenchie fur baby. Feel free to follow our pup on IG as well and reach out if you have any questions @uniiiboiii

As first time dog owners, we did a lot of research before settling on a breeder. When we came across Bijou French Bulldogs and spoke to Deb, we knew we found the one. We could have gone with a number of breeders much closer to home but the decision to go the distance was extremely worth it! Deb's knowledge of the breed, care for the animals, and beautiful dogs are unmatched. She was extremely response throughout the whole process. Our beautiful girl is now 1.5 years and thriving. Our vet always comments on how well bred she was and how great it is to see a Frenchie without breathing problems. If I ever wanted another Frenchie I would definitely go back to Deb and recommend her to anyone looking for their new best friend!

It has been 2 years since we picked up NiRAN from Debbie at Bijou French Bulldogs. He is really an extraordinary dog who has made our lives so much better. Since I am now a French bulldog owner, I am more aware of other French bulldogs and can appreciate the superb breeding strategies that Debbie practices in her business. While I know that everyone thinks their dog is the best, I can objectively say that his form is perfection, from tail to ears. Not always the case with this breed, as we all know. We get stopped everywhere and people just cannot get enough of NiRAN. Our friends, who fell in love with NiRAN, just got a puppy from Debbie. He is another great example of a gorgeous Frenchie in the making, and NiRAN loves to play with his new cousin. Thanks to Bijou French Bulldogs, we have our own little best friend who loves to snooze, snack, and play!

Deb is an absolutely pleasure and a dream come true to work with! She is hands on from beginning to getting your furbaby but even afterwards she is still involved. The furbabies she develops are all beautiful and healthy. If we could buy more we sure would!! Our experience has been amazing ever step of the way. We highly recommend her! Call me if you need to discuss 631-371-1153 Denise

Mellisa Testimonial: Deb is a wonderful, caring and responsible breeder and we are so happy to have found her when looking for our 3rd Frenchie. It is clear she cares deeply for not only her pups but the breed in general. Wellington aka Welly exhibits all the qualities we love about frenchies - affectionate, curious and social. He is a healthy and confident pup with the sweetest disposition. From my 1st inquiry to picking up Welly, working with Deb has been an easy, seamless process. We are so happy to have found Bijou French Bulldogs and for the joy that Welly has brought to all of us!

By absolute fate, Deb came into our lives.  Our family had just been told by another breeder (one we worked with for our 9 year old frenchie) that the puppy we put a deposit on, was no longer available, with absolutely no communication or reason. Our entire family was heartbroken, especially our two children. Out of desperation, I did a quick google search and stumbled upon Bijou French Bulldogs.  After reading the testimonials, I sent a message to Deb to which she replied almost immediately   We scheduled a facetime meeting for the next evening.  During our “face to face” meeting, we saw the available puppies, asked questions, and engaged in conversation about the process, her program etc.  The conversation was fluid and seamless.   This also gave her the opportunity to see where the puppy would live which brought her comfort as well.    From the beginning Deb’s main priority was that her dogs go to a loving home. We loved that Deb had a vested interest in the health, environment, and overall well-being of her pup’; they are truly family and treated as such.   Throughout the entire process Deb was communicative and transparent, something we had not experienced with any other breeder.  Deb truly puts the health and well-being of her pup’s before any monetary exchange.  For example, a few days before we were scheduled to pick up the puppy, Deb called and said the puppy was at the vet, as she was not eating or drinking overnight.  Deb said “if you would like the deposit back, I will gladly return it, but I can’t have you pick her up when she is not feeling well.   I need to get her better first. The doctor said it was not a big deal, and gave me medication for it, but I need to make sure she is better before I send her home to you”.  She also sent us the medical paperwork and note from the vet, she was extremely thorough.  Although we were disappointed with the temporarily delay, we respected that Deb was acting solely out of her care and love for the puppy.  After pushing the pickup day back, a week, my husband drove to pick up Carmella.    We brought Carmella home to meet our two children, and our 9-year-old French Bulldog, Dutchess.  Deb was knowledgeable about how to introduce Carmella to our family.  To no surprise, Deb was on point!   During the first few weeks of having Carmella at home we would reach out to Deb with questions, pictures or just updates.  Deb, completely consistent with how she treated us throughout the entire process was communicative, transparent, and helpful.  Her knowledge for this breed is unrivaled by any other breeder we have experienced.  Growing up with English bulldogs, and French bulldogs myself, I have never experienced a more thorough and responsible breeder.    If you are looking for a breeder who puts quality care into her pups, will be communicate with you during every step of the process, and patiently answer all of your questions and concerns, then Bijou French Bulldogs is for you.    Carmella fits in perfectly with our family, and we have Deb and her outstanding program to thank.

Debbie is a very responsible breeder caring for each pup individually and the whole litter. Debbie always makes herself available for any questions you may have before during and after your purchase. I Purchased Mr. Quinn in March of 2021 and never looked back. He is beautiful kind, and funny. He has such expression in his face. Everyone who meets Mr. Quinn falls in love with him. He is a real character with lots of charm. He gets along well with my other dogs. Mr. Quinn loves to travel and we are attending breed handling classes hoping to enter the show ring in the near future so Mr. Quinn can put his swagger on and hopefully come home with a few ribbons.

I received “Olive” from Deborah back in November of 2020. Deb was easy to work with, very professional and takes excellent care of her puppies. Olive came to me trained on puppy pads with the sweetest and most kind temperament you could ever want from a French bulldog. Olive was already socialized and great with other dogs. She immediately took to being the best older sister to her younger brother and cuddles/plays with him constantly. 10/10 would recommend going through Bijou French bulldogs

“Deb is an excellent breeder, she truly cares about every puppy and every client she has. Especially as first time dog owners it is crucial to have a breeder you can trust. Deb went above and beyond making sure my wife and I felt comfortable and ready to buy a puppy. Further to that she was always available to us for any questions we had to help guide us through the first few months and beyond of raising our puppy. We couldn’t be happier with choosing Deb and our beautiful french bulldog Maya.”

My husband and I were searching for a responsible French bulldog breeder and were struggling to find someone we felt comfortable with. As soon as I reached out to Deb of Bijou French Bulldogs she responded right away and offered to FaceTime with us that same day. She answered all of our questions and showed us the litter of adorable puppies, the mom and their whelping area. After choosing our adorable Poppy, Deb would frequently send pictures/videos of her until she was old enough for us to take home. Deb’s communication was amazing throughout the whole process, always quick to respond. Even after we took our adorable pup home, she still checked in on her and responded to any questions we had. Poppy is a happy, healthy (and sometimes sassy LOL) pup and we are so happy with her! We can’t recommend Deb & Bijou French Bulldogs enough!

We can’t recommend BiJou Frenchies enough! Finding a reliable preservation breeder was of high importance to us and we feel so lucky to have stumbled onto the BiJou French Bulldogs website one day. From the start, Deb has been a great communicator which really helped us feel at ease throughout the process of getting a pup. It is clear how much she loves her pups and cares about the families they go to.. we feel so lucky to be a part of the BiJou family! Butaro is our first dog and our pride and joy! He is the sweetest pup and loves meeting new people (and people love meeting him!). He has brought so much joy into our lives and also came housebroken, which was a big and pleasant surprise as first-time dog owners! People often stop and ask us about Butaro’s breeder, and every time we proudly say BiJou Frenchies! If you are looking to bring a french bulldog into you family, we highly recommend Deb and BiJou Frenchies - they are the best at what they do, you will not regret it! If you have any questions about our experiences with BiJou French Bulldogs, please feel free to direct message us on Butaro’s instagram - @mr.butaro.

Easy experience from the beginning to end. Deb got back to me quickly about the last available pup. Communication was a breeze and we were able to agree to a pickup location that was convenient for both of us. Lola came with all her shots and chip information. We love Lola so much and are very happy we were able to bring her home last February.

I bought my first French bulldog from Deb and couldn’t of had a better experience. She was very professional. She was very knowledgeable about the breed and answered all my questions. It was such a great experience that I also purchased a puppy for my daughter.  I take Paris to work with me everyday and the residents at the skilled nursing facility where I work love her. She is calm, friendly and well behaved.

My puppy, mochi, is absolutely perfect! She is healthy, beautiful and so full of love! She makes silly sounds that I absolutely adore and even though it’s only been two months, she’s really grown to be a wonderful companion. I could not be more grateful. In addition, Deb has been very helpful and is there to answer any questions I may have. I highly recommend deb’s breeding platform, you won’t regret it!

Our family has been researching various breeds of dogs and felt that the French Bulldog would best suit our family. Over this past summer, we have had the pleasure of working with Deb Knowlton of Bijou French Bulldog. We came across her website and became even more intrigued about the French Bulldog. From the first time we came into contact with Ms. Knowlton, she has truly demonstrated many qualities of professionalism and passion for the work that she does. She was always available to answer any questions we had via text or email in a promptly manner. When the time came to pickup our Frenchie, the process was fairly simple. Ms. Knowlton welcomed us into her home and gave her undivided attention to discuss all the information we needed to best care for our dog. Luna was already chipped, vaccinated and examined by a qualified veterinarian. Today, Luna is doing well and continues to bring such joy to our family.

This year we added a second Frenchie from Deb to our family...a well-adjusted, healthy, clown. We could not be happier with the disposition of our pup (Levi) and he has been a great addition...even his big sister loves him! Deb took the time to identify a perfect match to our existing Frenchie and both are thriving. Deb is always available for questions during and after the entire process and makes sure that both parents and puppies are happy for years to come.

Deb made the process of selecting the right Frenchie easy and fun. Just before the pandemic when we visited Deb to choose our puppy, she let the mother audition us as owners and we really hit it off. When we went back to the pen, the littlest puppy approached us and that was it. Love at first sight. Yasmin is a happy, healthy, self-confident puppy who brings joy to us every day. Bijou French Bulldogs is the best!

We looked for the right breeder for our frenchie for awhile, and as soon as we met Deb, we could feel how much care, knowledge, and respect for this breed that she brings. We knew she would be the perfect choice for one of the most important in our lives! We couldn’t have asked for a better process, excellent communication, and trust in her care. Fiona is beautiful, and exhibits all the best qualities of a well bred frenchie— she is super healthy, active, social, and the most friendly temperament. We won the lottery with Fiona and we know that deb had a huge part in making this possible. Follow our girl @fiona_da_frenchie to see for yourself! -John Hooper and Emily Posselius

The entire experience working with Deb from our initial phone call to well after we took home our sweet girl Minka was amazing. From the start, Deb took the time to share her knowledge on the breed, their characteristics, and her process. We knew immediately that we had an expert in Deb, and someone who loves and cares for her animals. Minka is the most loving, playful, silly, and all around best dog. She has completely exceeded our expectations, and everyone who meets her falls in love with her. We are so grateful to have found Deb, and couldn’t imagine life without Minka!

It is with great sense of purpose & satisfaction I am sharing our experience with Bijou French Bulldogs,

We are dog lovers and from our childhood my husband and I have we have enjoyed the love and happiness our pets have brought to our home. We currently have 3 dogs, Gigi a Labradoodle, Trudy a French Bulldog, and Tucker our Bijou French Bulldog. As with most dog lovers we will go to extremes for our dogs, and to say we spoil them in an understatement. We put a great deal of time into investigating the breeders of our dogs and this was especially true for Tucker. After Trudy came into our home we quickly realized Frenchie’s had a special place in our hearts so we immediately began our search for our next Frenchie. This was a journey that took us to visit and meet several Frenchie breeders all who had a love of this wonderful breed. Along this journey we came to meet Deb of Bijou French Bulldogs. Immediately upon meeting Deb and visiting with her we realized Deb was truly special. She took a great deal of time to discuss the breed and help to better understand Frenchie’s and their needs. She is very knowledgeable and extremely passionate about Frenchie’s… it is clear she is driven to breed healthy Frenchie’s and place them with people who will give them the love and care they deserve. From the time we picked up Tucker Deb has remained in touch with us and offered advice and support. Tucker is a healthy and absolutely beautiful puppy that has a wonderful personality, his coloring and disposition was exactly what Deb had said it would be. Deb’s dedication and love of her Frenchie’s is what makes her special.  Anyone looking for a Frenchie we would highly recommend Deb at Bijou French Bulldogs.

We want to Deb for her dedication to the French Bulldog Breed, and a special thank you for our beautiful loving little boy “Tucker”.

We are a dog-loving family, but, almost exclusively, we have been Lab owners. While we were all in the house for the pandemic, we realized that this would be a great time to get a puppy. However, this time my daughter asked if we could get a smaller dog that could sit in her lap (easier), and that she could take with her more easily than she can the larger labs. Not having explored the smaller dog world before, we did a bit of digging into what breeds of small dogs would fit into our lives, and we determined that the French Bulldog was the way to go. I began my research into finding a pup, and I quickly learned a few things: 1. Rescue French Bulldog puppies are hard to impossible to find, 2. Frenchies are a significant investment and 3. there are a lot of breeders out there. I looked for quite some time, and began discussions with more than a few breeders. Some of the breeders were excellent, but many were not. It began to remind me of puppy milling of labradors we have encountered so many times in the past. Lots of discussion about designer colors on web sites, but little about breeding philosophy. Then I found Deb at Bijou French Bulldogs. On the day that I sent her a quick note looking to connect, Deb called me. During that first phone call I asked her with questions about her kennel, her breeding philosophy, and overall questions about Frenchies and how well a puppy would fit in our house. Deb enthusiastically engaged in that discussion with passion, and I knew this was a person who I wanted to work with. I was particularly concerned with breathing issues that these dogs so often has, and Deb was able to answer all of these questions with with ease and details since she has a deep experience in breeding Frenchies, and loves to do it. She very purposefully and knowledgeably sets up her breeding program based on a lot of data, not just a pedigree. She has a fantastic working knowledge of genetics, and tracks her dogs health so well that she can use this data to produce great litters. Her process is impressive. that first phone call had to have been 90 minutes, and was such a pleasure!! We were able to give Deb our criteria about the kind of dog we were looking for, and what we were not. She immediately spoke about future litters she was planning that would fit our needs. She didn’t just sell me what she had at the time, we planned out what will be the right fit. I fully expected to have to wait up at least 6 months for a puppy, but we were able to get a puppy sooner than that. We got Millie, a beautiful Fawn with tons of red accents. She is smaller in size, just as we like, and Deb told us that with her intensity gene, that her coloring was going to be stunning. She was absolutely right. Millie has been an amazing addition to our family, and even keeps up with our labs! Her alert spirit commands the room, and at the same time, she is loving and sweet. Her temperament could not be better. Ultimately, it’s about having a happy, healthy dog. We love that she is a pretty puppy, but more important to looks, her health and temperament are paramount. However, the best testimonial that I can provide comes from the days following Millie home-coming. We took this beautiful 5 lb puppy to the vet for a wellness visit, and during the exam, the vet turned to me and said that she had no concerns about breathing or palate issues with this puppy, and that I should commend Deb for a beautifully bred dog - the best she has seen in years. If you are searching for Frenchies, and are considering Bijou, rest assured that you are in excellent hands (and paws)
