Our friend Hope, of Golly Gear Pet Supplies fame, agreed to help me out with a guest posting.

I asked Hope to tell us, “based on what you’ve seen in the store, and on your experience as a Frenchie owner, what are the BEST toys and treats for French Bulldogs?”. I wanted toys that could stand up to chewing, and were interesting enough to keep the attention of our little ADD darlings. I also wanted treats that were healthy and free of gross, icky ingredients (corn syrup? in pet treats? no thanks!).

Here’s Hope’s list – any of the gifts are available by clicking on the links.

If you want a really NICE holiday idea, why not order one or two extra toys, and have them sent to French Bulldog Village Rescue? I bet if we asked Hope, she’d make up a box for them, and send them all at once. The sad little misfits over at FBV sure could use a nice, new holiday surprise.

10 toys and treats every Frenchie wants for the holidays:

1.		Pure Bites
		One ingredient – either Fish or Cheese, dehydrated, easy to carry, and irresistible.
2.		Skinneeez
		No stuffing, two squeakers in each – stands up (for a time) to a Frenchie standing on it and trying to pull its head off.
3.		Zuke’s Minibakes
		Any gift list for a Frenchie has to include treats! These are all-natural, small, and taste great (or so the dogs tell me).
4.		Bow Wow Beanies
		They crinkle, they squeak, they’re durable and cute!
5.		Toy Temptations
		All natural, organic and adorable! Available in Chicken/Parmesan, Carob Cheesecake, Pizza and Apple Cheddar flavors.
6.		Nina Ottosson Interactive Toys
		Keep that Frenchie mind busy – you know yours will find the treats!
7.		Liver Biscotti
		Also known as Puppy Crack. ‘nuff said.
8.		Flappy Toy
		When a good game of fetch and tug is in order.
9.		Little Stars Training Treats
		Just a little something for motivation!
10.		Boiled Wool Toys
		Fun to toss and tug, soft and squishy to snuggle.
