Meet Ora – The Shimmering Little Miracle
Ora is a tiny French Bulldog with a heart of gold and a coat as unique as her story. Born on August 20th, she was recently brought to the Antioch Shelter, who reached out to us for help. Despite that rocky beginning, Ora is one of the happiest, most social little pups you’ll ever meet—she adores people, loves other dogs, and clearly came from a home where she was loved.
Ora is a double merle Frenchie. This means both of her parents carried the merle gene, which creates beautiful, mottled coats. But when two merles are bred together, it can result in pups with very light coloring and an increased risk of vision or hearing issues—about a 25% chance.
Ora beat the odds! She can both see and hear, though one of her eyes is red (likely due to albinism), which may cause some light sensitivity or slightly reduced vision. But don’t worry—dogs don’t rely heavily on eyesight. They navigate the world with their noses, ears, and hearts, and Ora does just fine.
Age: Born 8/20
Personality: Outgoing, affectionate, loves humans and dogs alike
Health: Appears to see and hear well; may have mild light sensitivity
Special Traits: Rare merle coat, red albino eye, emotionally resilient and sweet
Behavior: Social butterfly, playful, loves to be near her people
Ora is a perfectly imperfect little soul looking for someone who appreciates her rare beauty and big personality. She’s as “normal” as any puppy—just with extra sparkle.
