Frenchies

When walking your French Bulldog, both collars and harnesses have their place, but generally, a harness is the safer and more secure choice for your pup. Since French Bulldogs are small but mighty dogs, a well-fitted harness gives you better control without putting pressure on their neck.

You might find it handy to switch between a harness and collar depending on the activity. For longer walks or meeting other dogs, a harness is recommended when you’re leaving the house. When you’re home, a collar is plenty if your Frenchie is well-trained, if you need something for ID purposes, or if you need to act fast and put a lead on your dog.

Whichever you choose, make sure you choose the right size to make sure your dog is comfortable and safe. Use our handy chart if you’re unsure:

To stop your French Bulldog from pulling, you’ll need to combine consistent training with the right gear, like a no-pull harness. French Bulldogs are a playful and energetic breed, so giving them structure and control on walks makes a huge difference if they’re prone to pulling.

Why use a no-pull harness for your French Bulldog?

• Redirects pulling: No-pull designs guide your Frenchie from the chest, making it easier to steer and correct.
• Protects their neck: Unlike collars, harnesses prevent choking or strain from sudden lunges or leash tension.
• Supports training: Using a harness on walks reinforces good habits, giving you better control with less effort.

For the most effective harness, make sure you’re putting them in the right size. If you’re unsure which to choose, check out our dog harness size chart to find the right fit for your French Bulldog.

Most French Bulldogs will fit a small or medium harness, but it depends on their weight and chest size. Because of their compact, muscular build and broad chests, getting the right fit is vital for their comfort and your control.

Why getting the right size harness matters.

• Better control: A snug fit helps prevent pulling and keeps the harness secure during walks.
• Comfort-first design: Avoids rubbing, slipping, or pressure points – even on active dogs.
• Safer fit: The right size reduces the risk of escape or injury, especially in excited or young Frenchies.

To find the perfect-fitting harness for your French Bulldog, you’ll need to take their neck and chest measurements. You can use our handy dog harness size chart for reference - it’ll tell you exactly which measurements to take and which size is right for your pup.
