For one day only this November, Royal Canin is bringing the Royal Canin Café Frenchie pop-up to New York City's Flatiron Plaza, and inviting French Bulldog owners to learn more about caring for the unique characteristics of this breed and the importance of start-of-life nutrition. "French Bulldogs in particular benefit from a diet that is easy to eat, provides muscle support, and supports a healthy digestion, and Royal Canin products are made with those unique breed-specific needs in mind," said Dr. Emmanuel Fontaine, DVM, MDc, PhD, Dip. ECAR, and senior scientific communications veterinarian at Royal Canin.
According to a recent survey from Royal Canin of 1,023 puppy owners in North America, over half (52%) of puppy owners experience "puppy blues." At the pop-up, Frenchie owners will find a space for puppies to meet other owners and dogs, and reduce feelings of anxiousness, frustration and stress.
