More about Pennys story and how she came to rescue; So penny is perfect in our eyes! Owner purchased from a breeder who is AKC registered for $$$$$$ but returned her back to breeder after having her 3 months because as she grew, her snout was “too long” and wasn’t pushed in enough so she didn’t look like a “Real Frenchie”. The beauty of this is she doesn’t have breathing issues like they normally have! We still haven’t heard her snore which is almost unheard of for the breed. Most need nares or BOAS surgery and because her snout is a little wider / longer she’s actually healthier. (For this reason, we have listed her as a Frenchton, french bulldog Boston terrier even though she’s full frenchie according to the AKC breeder we got her from)
We have her DOB in her file. She’s had vaccinations, dewormed, microchipped with AKC and just got her spayed. She was eating victor brand food and likes nutro / blue buffalo also.
She’s great with all the other dogs and with kids! She’s now learned the “sit” command. She is doing well with harness walks now but before didn’t know what a walk was. She doesn’t mind going to the vets and thinks it’s great to get all their attention. Doesn’t mind big nor small dogs. She’s smart but wasn’t loved and taught much prior so she’s being spoiled now! She knows the doggy door and is very playful. She needs active playful dogs as companions and she loves to go out and explore the yard throughout the day. A yard for her is a must because she really enjoys going outside to do zoomies, sunbathe and give the perimeter a once over. She will burry her toy under the blanket for later. And is obsessed with chasing the water hose. She looks forward to the water hose being turned on and she will run and jump to “catch” the water. She’s truly an awesome dog. While we have had a lot of applications for her, we believe she’s best suited not only with a yard but a younger dog friend to play with. She’s been 100% housetrained at her foster families home with use of the doggy door. She had potty pad experience before coming to rescue but she hasn’t used them since she learned the dog door. She knows how to use the pet stairs to climb up into bed with you at night.
Fine Print:
-All of our French bulldogs must be walked with a harness (never on a neck collar).
-The rescue requires adoptive family to obtain pet insurance for coverage of congenital and hereditary conditions. This is for any of the dogs in our rescue identified as a French Bulldog or a Frenchie Mix. Adoption will be finalized once the proof of pet insurance requirement is met. (There are some great policies ranging between $28-32 per month)
-We have an open door policy and are always here to discuss anything that may arise with your adoptive pet. After an adoption is conducted please do not hesitate to reach out.
-Please no texts or calls, apply if interested.
-This breed generally speaking cannot swim and will sink like bowling balls so we do not adopt out to any homes with unfenced pools.
Note: All breeds and ages are our veterinarians best educated guess (unless otherwise stated that our group has breeder paperwork)
