About Encore French Bulldogs

Once there was a little spotted dog named BOOMER. He was the very first French Bulldog to come live with us here at Encore. We were immediately infected with a serious case of French Bulldog Fever and there is no known cure except for FRENCHIES!

Now ENCORE French Bulldogs is home to group winning, multiple specialty winning, fancy schmancy show dogs. But it all began with one little spotted dog…BOOMER. While Boomer is now guiding us from the Other Side, we know he is with us and watching over us.

And so Encore French Bulldogs began.

NOT the END!

Over the years we have enjoyed working with and getting to know so many wonderful people within the French Bulldog community. A special thank you goes to Kathy Dannel Vitcak (in the green shirt below) of Jackpot! French Bulldogs, Debbie Ecarius of Suirac Frenchies and Cheryl Petty of Pettybulls.

We enjoy showing our dogs in AKC sanctioned dog shows and have earned titles on many of our dogs. We have even had a few of ours go on to become obedience and agility Frenchies. We are proud of each of them, regardless of the number of ribbons and titles.

Shirley Knaack (left) has retired from a lifetime in education and is devoted to having the happiest Frenchies around. She spends most of her time playing with Frenchies, going places with the Frenchies and talking about…you guessed it, Frenchies! Contact her to learn more about upcoming litters and more.

Martha Dobbins (center) is not retired (one of these days). She is still actively working in the education field and views her French Bulldogs as the disobedient kids she never had.
