A Maryland family raising exceptional French Bulldogs with intention, care, and a whole lot of love.
We're Jim and Maggie Hoover — a Maryland family who fell head over heels for French Bulldogs and never looked back. What started as a lifelong love of dogs became something deeper the moment our first Frenchie came into our lives. The personality, the loyalty, the sheer ridiculousness of the breed — we were done for.
Pardon My Frenchie was built around our family. Our boys, Monty and Timbo, have grown up alongside these dogs — which means our puppies are raised in a real home, with real kids, real noise, and real love. They're socialized from day one because that's just life here.
We're small by design. We don't maximize litters — we plan them carefully, test our dogs thoroughly, and take our time finding the right families. If you're looking for a puppy from people who genuinely care about where they end up, you're in the right place.
French Bulldogs aren't just dogs — they're a lifestyle. They want to be wherever you are. They make strangers smile. They have opinions. They're endlessly entertaining and completely devoted.
We specialize in merle, blue/grey, and fawn lines — some of the most visually striking colorings the breed produces. Every litter is planned with purpose, not just availability.
When you bring home a Pardon My Frenchie puppy, you're not just completing a transaction. You're joining a community of families who love this breed as much as we do. We check in. We answer questions. We want to see photos.
That relationship doesn't end at pickup. It's kind of the whole point.
