To figure out how much room the Chien Francais Tricolore will need get out a tape measure and measure your Chien Francais Tricolore. Measure him standing straight up, sitting on his haunches and especially measure the full dimension of the Chien Francais Tricolore when he is in the most stretched out, comfortable, and relaxed position he can get into. Your Chien Francais Tricolore should be able to gaze out the front door when both sitting and standing. So the Chien Francais Tricolore will not have to significantly lower his front shoulders or drag his belly, make sure that entrance is high enough. Stand above the Chien Francais Tricolore and measure the breadth of the widest point of the animal’s shoulders.
