Here's what the humans have to say about me:
French Bulldog | 2 years | Male | 33 lbs
*We cannot guarantee breed nor age.
*ONLY APPLICANTS WITH PRIOR FRENCH BULLDOG EXPERIENCE (or other brachycephalic breed experience) AND EXTENSIVE TRAINING KNOWLEDGE WILL BE CONSIDERED TO ADOPT BORIS*
Temperament: Sweet! Energetic! Intelligent!
Activity level: High energy.
Vetting: Core vaccines (DH2PP, Rabies), neutered, microchipped, dewormed, fecal (negative), on flea/tick/heartworm prevention. Due to the many health issues this breed is susceptible to, only applicants with prior French Bulldog (or brachycephalic breed experience) will be considered for adoption. *Health insurance is a must.* His future home must take precautions such as not over-exercising/over-exerting, taking care that he doesn't become overheated, limiting stress and seeking urgent medical attention if he ever goes into respiratory distress.
Housebroken: Yes, but may have a couple accidents getting into his routine.
Good with Dogs: No. Boris can be protective and territorial around other dogs, especially in his home environment. He can also be reactive to other dogs when out on leash. Boris must be the only pet in his forever home.
Good with Cats: No.
Good with Children: Boris needs an adult-only home.
Prey drive: Yes.
Response to the outdoors: Loves walks, hiking, swimming, paddle boarding and is curious about the world. Boris is the ultimate outdoorsy dog.
Crate Trained: Yes. Is very talkative in the crate though and makes lots of the funny Frenchie grunts and noises while inside.
Resource guarding: Yes. He should be fed in his crate. He has shown resource guarding with toys and food, especially with other pets. He can also territorially guard his people.
Response to commands: Knows ‘sit’, ‘stay’, ‘heel’ and ‘fetch’.
Are they vocal: Not a big barker but grumbles and grunts a lot. He may possibly become more vocal over time.
Leash Etiquette: Boris is a fantastic walker on and off leash. His recall is fantastic. He likes to stop and sniff on walks. He has shown some reactivity to strangers and dogs while out on leash.
Transportation: Boris loves being in the car. He is game for car adventures!
*Boris’ bio may change as we get to know him better.
*Comes with 6 weeks of pet insurance totalling $500 plus 2 free online taped training classes.
*Please be sure to check your spam/junk folder for a response from our team.
*Due to overwhelming responses & being entirely volunteers, we are only able to reach out to applicants we feel are the right fit for Boris. Thank you for your interest!
Introducing loveable Boris! Boris the Frenchie loves to snuggle and is such an affectionate boy. He loves belly rubs and making snorty noises. Boris is definitely more of a morning guy and when the sun comes up, he is ready to play and start his day!
Boris loves adventure, especially if that adventure includes his family. Whatever you are up to, he is happy to go along with. If he’s with his family, he is game for it all! Boris loves outdoor adventures and he is an amazing companion for hiking, walking, swimming and even paddle boarding!
Boris is also a smart cookie and enjoys lots of mental stimulation games. He is doing agility training at home with his foster and is fantastic at it! He can jump super high and do all sorts of summersaults.
Boris is a brachycephalic dog, so that means he will be snorty, snoring pup. You might need earplugs! We are looking for an adopter with French Bulldog knowledge due to the health concerns that can present in the breed. Luckily, Boris is a very healthy pup! Experience with brachycephalic dogs is absolutely required as he will need to be watched in the hot months for overheating and he will need a home with air conditioning to keep cool. Boris is very high energy for a French Bulldog. He can walk and hike for hours and lacks an “off” switch sometimes. So extra care must be taken to make sure he doesn’t overheat when it gets hotter out as well.
Boris can be unpredictable with other dogs and is territorial within his home. He must be the only pet in his forever home. Boris can territorially guard his people and spaces along with having resource guarding with toys and food. Boris has also shown reactivity on leash while out on walks towards other dogs and strangers.
Boris needs a specific home environment in order to thrive. He has shown stranger danger in his foster home and will need to be in an adult-only home with no other pets. To set him up for success, his adopters should have extensive and significant dog training knowledge and have preferably dealt with territorial guarding before. Boris is an advanced level need dog as he can be reactive to people and other pets. He needs an experienced owner as he needs lots of consistency. A home with very few visitors and without a lot of people coming and going would be ideal, as well as adopters that are prepared to take correct steps when someone does come over.
The ideal forever home for Boris would be a securely fenced-in private rural property with land where Boris can run and play safely to his heart’s content without having to worry about running into strangers or other dogs. Boris would not do well living in the city or in a populated area with people and dogs walking around. He is currently being fostered on a farm and loves it!
Even though Boris has specific needs in order to be his very best self, he will truly be a beacon of love in his adopters’ life. Boris is the kind of dog that will make you LAUGH. He has the best personality. When he gets excited he will flip in the air and summersault. He loves to suckle his baby dragon to sleep and makes the wildest noises and grunts. He often makes sideways glances so full of hilarity you won’t be able to stifle the laugh that will erupt.
If hilarious and darling Boris is the right match for you, please fill out a Canine Adoption Application on our website at: covetedcanines.org/application

Additional adoption info
Coveted Canines and Creatures Rescue has a rigorous, tiered, application process to ensure that each pet is matched with the home that best meets its needs.
1. If you see a pet that you are interested in adopting, please submit an adoption application on our website. We have 2 separate adoption applications - a Canine Application for our adoptable dogs and a Creatures Application for our adoptable pets of other species (such as cats, rabbits, small domestics.)
2. Once Coveted Canines and Creatures receives your application and reviews it to be an appropriate match for the pet you are interested in, a member of the Adoption Team will be in touch with you via e-mail to review your application and answer any questions you may have about the process or the animal - remember to check your spam/junk folders for a response from our team. Please allow 48 hours for us to respond to your application. Being an entirely volunteer-run organization, we are only able to respond to those applicants selected to proceed. We only process a maximum of 3 applications per pet simultaneously.
3. Our adoption process requires a home visit and 3 completed personal references (plus a vet reference if you have had previous or current pets) prior to adoption. We will also set up a meet and greet between you and the pet during your application process. Adoption events are a great place to meet our dogs (and the CCCR team)!
4. If you are the successful applicant you will be notified by our Adoption Team via email and you will be connected with the foster parent to take home your new family member. The adoption contract, medical waiver and adoption fee must be paid/completed before your new family member is picked up.
5. If you are not the successful applicant but are pre-approved to adopt from us you will be notified by our Adoption Team via email and encouraged to continue to look on our social media feeds (www.facebook.com/covetedcanines and @covetedcanines on Instagram) for the next pet that interests you. You will already have completed a home visit and references so your application will be ready to go for the next one.
Please note that being pre-approved does not mean you'll automatically get to adopt the next animal that interests you. Pre-approved means we recognize you’d be a good pet guardian, however we need to ensure that the animal is the right fit for you and your family.
Please note: we do not call applicants to discuss why they did not get chosen for a particular pet.
Canine adoption fees: $900 for puppies (8 months & under), $700 for adult dogs (between 9 months - 7 years) & bonded pairs, $500 for senior dogs (8 years+)
Creatures’ adoption fees are indicated in their bio.

More about this rescue
Coveted Canines and Creatures is a Toronto-based Animal Rescue organization that focuses on animals that are at high risk of being euthanized and those that are vulnerable to abuse. We help dogs, cats, small domestics, birds and farm animals. We believe there is the right home out there for the pets in our rescue and pride ourselves on matching our animals to people. Our goal is to find the right forever home for each pet in need! While animals we feel cannot be re-homed are able to live at our sanctuary happily ever after.
Coveted Canines and Creatures is a not-for-profit organization that is wholly run by unpaid volunteers. Everyone on our team donates their time and expertise all for the love of animals! We do not have a shelter – we place our dogs and cats in loving foster homes where they feel safe to bloom and can learn important socialization skills. Our other animals big and small reside at our farm sanctuary where they can rest and recuperate in a safe and comfortable environment for as long as they need.
