Frenchie Fever Takes Over Westminster

🐾👑 Meet Winston, the French Bulldog Ready to Reign at Westminster! 🐶🏆

The bond between France and the United States goes back centuries and has produced many memorable moments and enduring symbols. From the gift of the Statue of Liberty to the Louisiana Purchase, the relationship between the two nations has been marked by generosity, cooperation, and mutual respect.

But one of the most beloved gifts that France has given America is the French bulldog. These adorable dogs, originally from Great Britain, became popular in France due to their small size and association with high fashion. Today, Frenchies are beloved by people all over the world, thanks to their charming personalities, easy-care coats, and modest exercise needs.

One Frenchie who is making waves in the dog show world is Winston, a lovable pup with NFL ties. Winston is partially owned by Morgan Fox, a defensive end for the Los Angeles Chargers, whose grandmother is a breeder of French bulldogs. Sandy Fox gifted Winston to her grandson as a puppy, and he quickly began winning awards at dog shows.

Winston's success is a testament to the breed's popularity and enduring appeal. Despite concerns over the health of French bulldogs, which can suffer from a range of genetic disorders and breathing problems, their popularity shows no signs of waning. Frenchies are featured in movies, TV shows, and social media accounts of celebrities, cementing their status as one of the most iconic dog breeds in the world.

At the Westminster Dog Show, Winston has made a name for himself by winning Best in Show at the National Dog Show in 2022 and finishing as Reserve Best in Show at the 2022 Westminster Dog Show. He's a strong contender to take home the top prize this year, and his proud owner, Morgan Fox, is cheering him on every step of the way.

But Winston isn't just a successful show dog – he's also a beloved member of the Fox family, who provides him with all the love and care he needs. As one of the most popular dog breeds in America, French bulldogs like Winston remind us of the enduring bond between France and the United States, and the power of friendship and companionship to bring people together.
