Meet Stuart – The Fluffy Little Fighter!
Stuart is an impossibly fluffy, tiny French Bulldog with a mighty heart. Born August 31st with a cleft palate, Stuart was tube-fed from birth—but he’s come an incredible long way. He now eats completely on his own and continues to grow stronger and more confident every day. While he’s still smaller than most pups his age, he’s thriving and proving just how resilient he is.
Stuart currently prefers drinking from a water bottle rather than a bowl, which helps him manage his cleft safely and comfortably.
What does his cleft mean long term?
Most cleft palate pups—just like Stuart—learn to eat and drink normally as they grow. In over 13 years of raising cleft pups, surgery has rarely been necessary and is not recommended unless chronic sinus infections develop. These procedures can create more problems than they solve, and Stuart has been doing wonderfully without surgery.
Because he was hand-raised, Stuart is extremely people-oriented and deeply bonded to his humans. He loves being close—whether that’s snuggled in your arms or toddling along behind you from room to room. He lives comfortably in a busy home with lots of dogs and children and does great with both.
Why You’ll Love Him:
Sweet, gentle, and incredibly people-focused
Eats on his own and continues to gain confidence
Great with dogs and kids
Fluffy, unique, and undeniably adorable
A resilient, once-in-a-lifetime kind of companion
Adoption Fee: $700
Apply: AdoptPet – Recycled Pets NorCal
Anyone would be lucky to welcome this special little boy into their home. If you’re ready to love, protect, and spoil him the way he deserves, Stuart is ready to love you right back.
