We are a small show kennel located in the beautiful Wears Valley of Tennessee. Wears Valley lies in the majestic hills of the beautiful Smokey Mountains about an hours drive from Knoxville, TN. The valley is one of the most beautiful places you will find in the United States.

The Kennel name “Hallmark” epitomizes our philosophy. Just like a Hallmark Card, each one of our puppies is unique and special. Our dogs are a part of our family and our lives. Here at Hallmark our philosophy is to breed the very best example of what a French Bulldog should be and with each breeding strive to produce beautiful, healthy and fun loving Frenchies.

We love all allowable colors of the French Bulldog and hope you enjoy seeing the fine examples throughout our website.

It was at a local dog show in the 80′s that I first saw the French Bulldog. For me, it was love at first sight! Shortly thereafter I acquired my first Frenchie puppy, soon to become, CH RJ’s Goodtime Hulkster. “Hogan”  was purchased from Joanne Hale’s RJ Kennels. My second puppy, also from Joanne, was a female by the name of RJ and Di’s Miss Elizabeth “Liz”. Little “Liz” was the beginning of my journey with French Bulldogs.

"Liz” was bred to Hershel Cox’s CH Cox’s Goodtime Charlie Brown and that union produced the true love of my life, “CH Di’s I’m Charlie Brown Too”. “Charlie” led me into the exciting competitive world of really showing dogs and striving to produce as close to the standard as possible. Our love of the breed has continued throughout the years and through this website we hope to share with you some of our most famous and many of our new “super stars”.

Hallmark French Bulldogs occasionally places show prospects in approved homes but the majority of our Frenchies are sold to pet/companion homes. Our puppies are sold on limited registration on spay and/or neuter contracts only. If you are interested in a Hallmark puppy please drop me a line with some information on you, your family and why you have chosen the Frenchie as a dog for you. I can be reached by phone at (865) 803-5946 or by e-mail .

I am a member in good standing with the French Bulldog Club of America and Treasurer of the Southeast French Bulldog Club.

We hope that you have enjoyed meeting our family of Frenchies and will come and see us again.

Diane McMurray,
Hallmark French Bulldogs
