My name is Benoit!

Benoit (born: 12/12/2022), weighs 24 pounds and is a young French Bulldog who knows how to sit, loves to run and play, has fun with his toys and enjoys having a treat. Born with a congenital eye issue, Benoit had to have surgery to remove his right eye when he was just 10 weeks old and he continues to have follow-ups with an ophthalmologist for his left eye, which has limited vision, for life. Benoit also developed a head tilt and the neurologist has diagnosed him with Hydrocephalus and the doctor prescribed Omeprazole – which is a medication he will have to take for life. After many visits to the neurologist, we have learned that Benoit will have to be on steroids and pulse antibiotics for life.

Benoit is a complicated medical case and he will need to see a neurologist and an ophthalmologist for the rest of his life.
