Francine was brought to the Oakland Shelter as a stray. During the intake process, shelter staff noticed fecal and urine “leakage.” Upon examination, Francine was diagnosed with sacrocaudal dysgenesis, a common condition in dogs bred with no tails (pugs, bulldogs, Corgis, etc.) The tail isn’t allowed to fully form resulting in defects such as incontinence (bowel and urinary). Unfortunately, Francine is incontinent, requiring her to wear diapers while in the house. Our experienced foster homes are happy to consult with prospective adopters in the proper care of an incontinent dog. With the proper materials and routine, caring for an incontinent dog is fairly easy. She also had a “cherry eye” which was repaired during her spay surgery.
Otherwise, Francine is a friendly, loyal, playful, confident dog. At the adoption center she wants attention from everyone who visits. She lives in a foster home with another French bulldog (who is available for adoption from another rescue group), and they get along very well, However, being a “bully” breed, she can be a little bit of a bully with smaller dogs and cats.

We specialize in "hard to place dogs" due to their breed, age, minor behavioral or medical conditions. We strive to keep our fees reasonable ($125), and we have sponsorship funds to help with fees, if needed.
After the application is approved, the prospective adopter must take the dog on a trial-basis "sleepover" for a few days, before finalizing the adoption.
We require landlord approval if the applicant is renting their living space.
We only do adoptions in San Francisco Bay Area and surrounding regions.
We DO NOT adopt to families with children under the age of 13.
