Who are Horton and Hazels breeder?

Horton is from BullMarket Frogs and Hazel is from Stormin French Bulldogs. These two breeders have a co-breeding program so H+H are actually related! Horton is Hazels biological uncle.

It was very important to us that we find a reputable breeder for our fur baby considering frenchies can be prone to certain health issues. These breeders care about health and conformation first and foremost as they mainly breed to show their dogs. This means they do not have many litters and they breed only standard CKC colors. You can reach them at the links in the names above to inquire about upcoming litters and to complete a puppy application.

What do you feed Horton and Hazel?

We feed H+H a raw food diet from Big Country Raw. We mainly feed Turkey Dinner, and Turkey Salmon Lamb blend. We’ll add frozen sardines and quail eggs to their food as well when we have them as well as pumpkin puree. For some variety, we add some Open Farm Rustic Stew and Freeze Dried Raw on top.

As for supplements, we add in herring oil, Trimineral Boost, Coconut oil and Bovine Colostrum from Thrive Supplements. We also add Tri-Acta daily for good joint health

What’s it like having two frenchies?

It’ll be great they said. They’ll love each other they said. They weren’t wrong, but nobody told us how much more work having two would be.

I think we might have forgotten how much work a puppy was. Or that we thought that because H+H were related that they’d have similar personalities and would be a breeze to take care of together. OH BOY were we wrong.

Hazel is a vocal wrecking ball whereas Horton is super calm and sweet. Because they have such different personalities, we need to juggle what they need individually. Whether that’s some park time alone with Hazel, or naps on the lap for Horton, we try to make them both feel special. Its never a dull moment in the McSnorton household!

Potty Training, were you a stubborn little pup?

I was a quick learner! I had an indoor fake grass pad that ended up turning into another “bed” once I was used to peeing outside. Ever fall asleep on a toilet before? Cause I have!

When I was still learning, I would get my front two paws on the pad and then start peeing. In my head I was fully on the grass pad but unfortunately I forgot about the second half of my body where the pee comes from! Suffice to say I peed all over the floor. Mom thought this was so cute, she couldn’t even get mad!

My pee coordination has got much better since. Sharp shooter status even.

What’s the story behind your very first carrot?

So apparently the story is, she bought a huge bag of baby carrots and couldn’t finish them so started giving them to me. I mean, I’m not mad at it. I’m basically a garbage disposal, she calls me that all the time.

Who are you favorite people other than your mom and dad?

Auntie Jess - She has what mother calls “hooch” nails so when she gives me scratches its extra satisfying.

Grandma - She da best. Full sized treats. Steak scraps for dinner. All the naps. Mother take note please.

Rascal - He’s grandmas kitty. He doesn’t particularly like me, but that doesn’t stop me from following him all over the house! One day he’ll love me back, one day.
