French bulldogs are a very popular dog breed overseas. Even though the IQ of this kind of dog is not very high, they are still popular for their cute appearance and unique temperament. The Boston Terrier, which looks very similar to it, is also liked by many people. Some people often confuse these two dogs, so let’s talk about how to distinguish French Bulldog and Boston Terrier.
French Bulldog (definite introduction)
No one can tell clearly The origin of French cattle, however, everyone is sure that it has the bloodline of English cattle. Around 1860, there were a large number of dogs similar to French cattle in Britain, or toy-type English cattle. However, they were not very popular in Britain and later flowed to France in large numbers. The French began to use them to cross-breed with local dogs, and actually developed a breed that was popular with people, especially women. People called it "Boule-Dog Francais", but this was not the current French cow, because They still often retained the rose-shaped ears of British cattle. Despite the objections of European conservatives, the Americans insisted on developing this kind of dog with bat ears. At present, various parts of the world have accepted the results of this development.

The biggest function of these two types of dogs is as family companions, and they belong to the non-sporting dog group.
Similar in appearance, but different in size
Fa Niu and Bo are standing next to each other, and you can see from a distance that they are different in height, height and weight. French bulls are taller, and the upper limit of body weight allowed by the standard is 28 pounds, while waves are 25 pounds, and waves even have ultra-small bodies of less than 15 pounds.
I asked several people in the industry, and the first thing they mentioned was bone mass: the bone mass of French cattle is larger than that of Bo! From the observation, you may be able to find that the body and limbs of French cattle are indeed stronger than those of Bo, which is mostly caused by the difference in bone thickness. From a complete comparison, Fa Niu is slightly "reckless", while Bo is more fashionable.
In fact, the French cattle from the Chinese mainland are too focused on being small and lack enough bone mass, which results in the loss of the original flavor of the French cattle.
Different faces
Although they both have square heads, according to the ratio, Fa Niu’s is bigger. Moreover, Bo looks younger. This is because Fa Niu has deep wrinkles between his eyes, while Bo's face is flat. The French Bull looks like it has a more honest and "sexy" big mouth. Although Bo's thick mouth is not as outstanding as that of many other dogs, it cannot compare with the French Bull in the end.
The most obvious thing is their ears. The French ox is a typical bat ear. . Appreciating their faces, you will find that Fa Niu looks like an elderly celebrity, and Bo Geng looks like a young aristocrat.
Flat and sloped back
The back of the wave is short and straight, and the body is square. The waist of French cattle is slightly higher than the shoulders, and the backline appears short in front and high in back. This is because its hind legs are slightly longer than its front legs. But no matter what, these two dogs will not lose complete stability because of flat or slope.
The easiest way to distinguish between coat colors
It may be easier to distinguish French bulls from Poodles based on their coat color. The coat color of all Boston Terriers must be one main color, accompanied by white pattern markings. These main colors are generally tabby, black and seal colors. White patterns must appear on the lips, between the eyes and chest. The most ideal white patterns should be like this: white runs through the head, neck, chest, and below the hocks of the legs. All are white. The color of the French Bulldog is mainly pure color, such as pure tabby color, pure fawn color, pure white color, etc. However, pure black color, mouse color, liver color, black and brown, black and white are disqualified. Naturally, there is also a color that is easily mixed with waves, that is, tiger stripes and white. If you really encounter a French cow with tiger stripes and white, then you can identify it by looking at its bone mass and head and face.
