Royal Canin to host French Bulldog pop-up in Flatiron next week

Calling all Frenchies! Royal Canin is hosting a special pop-up for you next week.

French bulldogs and their humans are invited to attend Royal Canin’s Café Frenchie Pop-Up on Nov. 19, which aims to teach owners (particularly new puppy owners) about the unique characteristics of the beloved breed. The pop-up will take place in the Flatiron Plaza from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

“Every dog is unique, and so are their nutritional needs. Depending on their breed, size and age, they will require different nutrients to grow and mature properly,” said Dr. Emmanuel Fontaine, DVM, MDc, PhD, Dip. ECAR, and senior scientific communications veterinarian at Royal Canin. “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.”

The Café Frenchie experience aims to create a space for puppy owners to meet with other French Bulldog owners and their dogs can get tips on puppy care from Dr. Fontaine. The pop-up will also feature photo opps for you and your pup and opportunities to bring home a bag of Royal Canin’s French Bulldog diet and an exclusive offer from PetSmart, while supplies last.

“There’s so much that goes into bringing a puppy home and being a responsible pet owner. You need to learn what to feed them and what kind of environment to raise them in so that they can thrive as full-grown dogs,” said Racquel White, vice president of corporate affairs, Royal Canin North America. “This pop-up experience will allow for French Bulldog owners to socialize and seek expert advice on how to navigate the ins and outs of having a new puppy in their home.”
