Here's what the humans have to say about me:
***At this time, we are asking for adopters to be in the Sacramento and IMMEDIATE surrounding areas meaning you must live in Sacramento County, parts of Placer County or parts of El Dorado County.****
What is your name?
Vinny
Are you a girl or a boy?
I’m a boy.
How old are you?
One year old… my birthdate is 8/3/2022
What breed are you?
I’m a French Bulldog!
How much do you weigh?
About 22 pounds
What do you look like?
I have beautiful blue merle coat and one handsome blue eye to match!
What do you like to eat?
I like my kibble and anything else you are willing to give me! Healthy of course, strawberries are nice, carrots are yummy, I am not picky!
What kind of personality do you have?
I’m a sweet, gentle and playful little guy who loves to run around with my fellow foster puppies! I won the gold medal in cuddling and expect to hold that title for life!
Describe your perfect day:
My perfect day is eating, playing, cuddling, repeat! I love running around on the grass and exploring! When I am inside, I love playing tug, or wrestling with anyone who will play with me. Then snoozing on the couch next to my forever family!
What is your favorite toy?
Anything with a squeaker in in please! I also love your shoes and socks.
Do you know any tricks?
I know how to sit nicely and wait for my meal. I’m very smart, though still a learning puppy, will work for kibble! I also know how to use stairs to safely get on the couch for championship cuddle events.
What scares you?
So far I am fearless! Even fireworks didn’t scare me. Maybe just my foster mama trying to catch me when I steal her shoes and run away with them.
Have you been around children? Do you like them?
I have been around kids and so far I’m fantastic with everyone! I’m super gentle and did I mention I love cuddles!
Do you like cats?
I’ve never met one but would likely do well with them! I love playing!
How do you feel about other dogs?
I LOVE to play with other dogs! IT’S MY FAVORITE!
If you could be anywhere in the world, where would it be?
Anywhere there is a buffet of food and cuddles.
How is your health?
I got injured while trying to save the world from evil overlords, so I am missing an eye. I am a bit smaller than others my age because I was not well nourished during that time, but I am catching up! Neither of these slow me down or stop me from attempting to escape captivity! I am healthy and happy!
Who do you live with in your foster home and who is your closest companion?
I live with my foster mom, foster grandmother, foster human brother.
Where do you hang out when you are home alone?
I hang out in my crate or exercise pen where I’m safe.
Where do you sleep? I sleep in my crate, it’s nice and comfy, but I do prefer to have an enclosed area to like an exercise pen.
Do you like walking on a leash?
Yes, with a harness, so far just around the house and yard, but I am so excited to see more of the outside world!
Do you have any "not-so-great" habits that we should know about?
For instance, do you bark or dig in the yard? I’m in that puppy phase where I love the chew tissue and steal your footwear. Nothing more than the usual puppy behavior.
Are you house trained? (Meaning do you go potty outside)
I am! I use the doggy door all by myself!
Do you like water?
Water is very fascinating! I’m good with baths and showers, and even curious what the hose outside is doing! Please keep me safely away from pools though.
What do you love about your foster family?
I love that there are so many toys and other dogs to play with! And that I get tons of cuddling like a baby!
What was your life like before being brought into NorCal Bully Breed Rescue?
My eye was injured pretty bad shortly after I was born, so the breeder surrendered me and my big brother Gianni for “failing to thrive”. But NBBR saved us, they knew just how to get us both healthy and safe again.
