I had a fantastic experience working with TomKings French Bulldog Kennel when adopting my puppy, Denis Diderot. From start to finish, the entire process was smooth, transparent, and very well organized. The team communicated clearly at every step, which gave me confidence and peace of mind throughout the adoption journey. Even though my puppy traveled all the way from Hungary, everything was handled professionally, and he arrived healthy, happy, and well-adjusted.
What truly sets TomKings apart is their commitment to quality and care. They are clearly reputable and trustworthy breeders who prioritize the health and well-being of their dogs. The health guarantees and detailed documentation they provide are top notch and demonstrate their high standards. Today, Denis is thriving and living a great life in Washington, DC, and I couldn’t be happier. I would absolutely recommend TomKings to anyone looking for a responsibly bred French Bulldog and a seamless adoption experience.

I can’t recommend Tom Kings enough
I can’t recommend Tom Kings enough. From the very beginning, I felt completely confident communicating with them. Even early on through seeing their puppies online and interacting with them, I could tell they were a real, reputable, and responsible breeder. It is very apparent to me that they raise their puppies with a lot of love and care. My experience with them has been wonderful from start to finish, which is why I never even considered going anywhere else when I decided to get my second puppy.
My first girl came from Hungary in 2024, and she has been absolutely amazing — beautiful, healthy, and with such a wonderful temperament. I originally had no plans to get a second dog, but after about a year, I realized how social this breed really is and started feeling like it would be good for her to have a companion. Looking back now, I truly believe they are both so much happier having a sibling and companion around.
I got my second puppy, a little boy from one of Tom Kings’ partner breeders on the East Coast, and he has been incredible. He came to me at five months old by choice, already potty trained, leash trained, and very well adjusted. His personality and mannerisms are just amazing, and I truly couldn’t ask for a better little guy. I’ve never had this kind of bond with a dog before, and it honestly feels kind of magical. He actually made me start crying right after I got him because he was just so sweet and attentive. He made me feel like my little bully family was finally perfect and complete.
One of the biggest reasons I trust Tom Kings so much is because they absolutely care about responsible and humane breeding practices. I learned that their mother dogs are only bred a limited number of times before being kept and cared for, and that meant a lot to me. There are unfortunately many irresponsible breeders out there, and I never felt comfortable with the idea of supporting that. With Tom Kings, I genuinely feel like they care deeply about their dogs and do things the right way.
Marco also went above and beyond throughout the entire process in a way that honestly felt almost unbelievable at times. It was very obvious to me from the beginning that he really cares about what he does.
He helped me with both of my puppies, and one thing I especially appreciated was how thoughtful and thorough he was in helping me choose the right dogs. It never felt rushed or transactional. He really took the time to understand personalities, temperaments, and what would be the best fit for my lifestyle and for my first puppy as well. I truly feel like he did an amazing job matching me with both of them.
Communication was excellent the entire time. Whenever I reached out with questions or concerns, Marco was always incredibly responsive, patient, and thorough. I always felt like he genuinely cared so much to take the time to address everything completely instead of giving quick or dismissive answers, which I appreciated so much. Even when I probably sent way too many messages while trying to balance everything else I had going on, he always responded with the same kindness and professionalism.
The experience would not have been the same without him. Buying a puppy remotely can feel stressful, but Marco took away most of that stress and actually made the experience fun and exciting as well. He’s truly amazing!

Working with Tom Kings French Bulldog…
Working with Tom Kings French Bulldog Kennel was a very rewarding and easy experience. Tom Kings got me in touch with a family in my area that had gotten three dogs from them nd I went and visited for over an hour. We talked about the health of the Tom Kings frenchies compared to Frenchies they had gotten in the past. The family stated that the Tom Kings frenchies were so much healthier and well adjusted than their previous frenchies.
From start to finish and beyond the Tom Kings team team was with me the whole way. The process of getting my beautiful frenchie from Hungary to LAX was so easy I was amazed. She is truly a beautiful and well adjusted dog. She as six months old when I got her and was already housed trained and learned the dog door as soon as she arrived. I highly recommend Tom Kings and would welcome any questions from families thinking about getting a frenchie from Tom Kings

SHERMAN
We welcomed Sherman into our home 3 weeks ago. He is the most beautiful, affectionate, healthy, well behaved little boy. His disposition is truly remarkable. I can’t say enough about TomKings Puppies. The purchase process was seamless from start to finish. I was extremely impressed with the communication and attention to all details including flights to the USA, health records, training, and settling in at his new home. They sent pictures and videos of Sherman every 2 weeks so we could watch him grow. We are blessed to have found TomKings and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a Frenchie breeder.

Dear Cheryl,
Your words truly touched our hearts!
Hearing that Sherman is everything you hoped for, means so much to us. We remember his little face so well, and it brings us real joy to know he’s now surrounded by love, cuddles, and a family that adores him.
Thank you for your kind words about our process and team. We put so much heart into every step, from sending those little update videos to making sure every detail is just right. To see it all come full circle with families like yours, it’s the best reward we could ever ask for.
Please give Sherman a kiss from all of us, and let him know we miss him already. You’ll always be part of the TomKings Family, and we’re so grateful you found your way to us.
Warm regards,
Lilla

Happy and healthy Frenchie. More information needed on how hard the few few days/weeks are
I received Zimba 3 weeks ago today. He is perfect in every way. Tom Kings has been wonderful throughout the process. The only negative is that I wish there would be more honest guidelines given about the first few days/weeks. It was very difficult emotionally. I would love to see a blog on this. I could help write it. The most important thing is that he is happy and healthy and I owe that to them.

Thank you so much for your kind words and for sharing your honest feedback. We’re over the moon to hear that Zimba is doing so well!
You're absolutely right, those first days can be tough emotionally, and we truly appreciate you bringing this up. A blog on this topic is a great idea, and we'd love to involve you in it!
Thanks for being part of the TomKings Family, and for giving Zimba such a loving home!
Warm regards,
