Buddy our Little Elder Introvert: Toy obsessed Yes! Meet Buddy, the French Bulldog with the personality of a 1920s flapper dancer! This 7-year-old charmer came to us as an owner surrender due to family changes and concerns over his behavior around young children. While Buddy showed some aggression in his previous home with their toddler, he has been a model citizen in his foster home, showing no signs of aggression and living peacefully with the other dogs—though he prefers to do his own thing rather than join in on their antics. Buddy is a sweet, introverted soul who thrives in a calm and quiet environment. He has a gentle sway in his hips when he walks, which only adds to his unique personality. Whether he’s “talking” in his hilarious Frenchie bark, exploring the house, playing with his toys, or enjoying a long nap, Buddy knows how to keep himself entertained. Ideal Home: Buddy is looking for a home with no children under 10 years old, that are well versed in leaving a dog be (he is not looking for a best friend), as he finds chaotic environments overwhelming. He would do wonderfully in a household with: • A small, quiet family with older children • A single person who wants a loyal companion • A peaceful couple who can provide a calm and structured environment Buddy loves his crate (it’s his safety zone) and prefers it to be accessible so he can come and go as he pleases. His favorite spot is a cozy dog bed by the couch, where he can keep an eye on you while relaxing. Health & Special Care Needs: Buddy is healthy overall, but as a senior French Bulldog, he has a few age-related conditions: • Spinal Issues (IVDD): Managed with medication, crate rest, and non-surgical therapies such as acupuncture or chiropractic treatments. • Allergies: He is on a salmon-based diet and supplements (hip and joint supplements, probiotics) to keep him feeling his best. • Eyes: One of Buddy’s eyes is slightly cloudy due to a repaired ulcer, but it doesn’t affect his quality of life. • Mobility: He walks on all fours and is not incontinent. Continued care, like therapy and a safe home layout, will help him thrive. Personality: Buddy is a true introvert who loves peace and quiet. He’s not one for rough housing but adores cheek and ear scratches. His quirky bark—part talk, part Frenchie charm—is sure to make you laugh. He may not be the life of the party, but he’s the perfect companion for someone who values quiet moments and a loving presence. He loves to go for short walks, but we always advise to not let strangers pet. Buddy has plenty of life and love left to share. With his foster family’s care, he’s been thriving, and we’re confident he can continue living a happy, comfortable life with the right adopter. This guy needs a home to live out the rest of his golden years quietly with a couch potato. If you’re looking for a loyal, low-key companion to share your days with, Buddy might just be your perfect match! He is vaccinated, neutered, and microchipped. Adoption donation fee $700.00, please apply for Buddy on our website, freedomfrenchierescue.org, located in Mesa, AZ (pending foster).

Story
Hi, I’m Cutie - Yes… that’s really my name—and trust me, it fits. How I Got My Name So here’s the deal: I was found at the QT, and the rescue posted me everywhere hoping someone would come forward and say, “That’s my dog.” They waited two full months to see if anyone had lost me… but no one ever did. Honestly? It’s probably for the best—because whatever my life was before this was fucking terrible. Being overlooked turned out to be the thing that saved me. From there, I landed at FFR, started my glow-up, and officially became Cutie—because after everything I’ve been through, softness finally found me. The Real Me I’m 3 years old and 23 lbs of pure snuggle energy. When I first came into rescue, I was terrified. I would crouch down when people approached, unsure if love was coming or not. Fast-forward a couple months and now? I jump up when I see you—because I KNOW affection is waiting on the other side. Love changed everything for me. Cuddle Queen Status Let’s get one thing straight: I am a professional couch potato with a PhD in snuggling. I’m potty trained, crate trained (though I will 100% choose your bed if given the option), and I firmly believe blankets and pillows are non-negotiable life essentials. I roll over instantly for belly rubs, never say no to a treat, and I take my cuddle responsibilities very seriously. Playtime & Friends I love toys—especially Nylabones—and I adore playing with my foster sibling Violet, who is just a teeny tiny baby. I’m gentle, playful, and sweet with other dogs. Basically, I’m the fun aunt who also wants to nap immediately after. My Health & Care I came in with a serious ear infection, but good news—it’s cleared up! That said, my ears will need to be cleaned twice a week, no skipping allowed. It’s an absolute must for me to stay comfortable and healthy. I also struggle with yeast and allergies, but don’t worry—we’ve got them under control now. I’m on allergy meds and a prescription diet, and WOW has it made a difference. I’m feeling better every day. Oh—and yes, I have crate feet (I go full gremlin paws in the crate, not my fault I lived in one…), but those will improve with time and confidence. Foster Life Commentary I love my foster dad, beg him for food regularly, and attempt to manage my foster mom’s job… though I usually fall asleep before I can clock in. Turns out, supervising humans is exhausting. My Perfect Home I never knew what “spoiled” meant before rescue—but now I do, and I’m ready to keep living that life. I’m looking for a family who understands routines, keeps up with my ear care and diet, and wants a loyal, affectionate, slightly bossy cuddle companion. If you’re searching for a dog who will make your house feel like home, warm your heart, and steal your blankets— I’m your girl.

Story
Meet Me, Yes I said it ME… Gertie! I’m 4 years old, a French Bulldog, and I’m currently hanging out with the amazing humans at Freedom Frenchie Rescue. I came from Riverside County Animal Shelter, where I was placed on the euthanasia list because of something called IVDD. A lot of people passed on me. A lot of pleas went unanswered. But then Mo listened to her gut (she’s good at that) and said, “Fuck it. Let’s pull her.” And just like that… my life changed (literally I was at the beach with this her and Tyke (Mo’s sidekick) that day! Mo believes in bodies like mine. She’s seen what chiropractic care, support, and early intervention can do—and she believed that if someone helped me now, before things progressed, I could have a really good life. She was right. My Body, My Power Yes, I have a mild case of IVDD. Sometimes my legs forget the plan and my neck gets stiff. Ill lean to the side like I’m from LB or something but I have no idea where I am from I just heard the humans chatting it up ( I can’t mind my business to often). But let me be very clear—I run, play, zoom, and live my life on all fours just like any other Frenchie. Louder for people in the back ON ALL FOURS! I’m not incontinent (actually potty trained). I’m learning my body. I’m getting stronger every day. And honestly? I surprise everyone (including myself) with how resilient I am. With continued care and support, my people expect me to stay comfortable, active, and happy—and I fully intend to prove them right. I start my chiropractic appointments next week and they will need to be continued. Don’t freak out it’s not that pricey ( its like going to the human chiro). If you want me in your life for a long time, then you can do this! My Personality: Spunky, Independent & Just a Little Bossy If confidence had a face, it might look like mine. Nothing slows me down. I’m independent… but also needy. Confident… but I really want to belong (some might be a little fake, what do you expect I’m a Frenchie). I like doing my own thing, but I always know where my people are. I’ll check in just to remind you I still exist—even while I’m playing. Multitasking is kind of my thing. I do love my friends when I met Tyke I followed her around for awhile. I wasn’t sure if I fit in but that goof ball went right on her back and I knew I was her friend immediately! I also have classic Frenchie commentary. Think sorority girl who absolutely needs to be heard. If I can’t see you, I will remind you—loudly—that I am still here and available for attention. Brains, Training & Snuggles I’m smart and I know it and I’m also a smartass. Lol I’m doing great in my new foster home with house training and I already understand sit, stay, and down like a professional. I take treats gently (because manners matter), and my cuddle skills? Let’s just say I already have my bachelor’s degree and I’m actively working on my master’s. I can also open gates. So don’t underestimate me. I go where I want, when I want—with grace, confidence, and just the right amount of mischief. Friends, Dogs & My Social Circle When I arrived at my new foster home, things were done right. I was given time, space, and rest after being spayed, and my IVDD was respected. The 3-3-3 Rule was followed, and it made all the difference. That is a must with every rescue in sace you were not aware of that one! I can be a little dominant at first—I like to know where I stand—but once another dog shows me they’re cool, I soften fast. Then it’s all play, chase, and friendship… with a gentle reminder that I might still be the boss. Peanut butter jelly time baby lettsss go! So far, I’ve done amazing with other dogs, and I just keep shining. From My Heart I’ve been through a lot. And I know it. I wish I could tell these humans so much but our communication lacks in that area. I’m grateful. I’m affectionate. I’m funny. I’m resilient. I’m full of life. You know he sunny rays on the AZ flag that’s me! I’m the kind of dog who reminds you why rescue matters. Not many people chose me. But the right people did temporarily this time and I’m excited for my future! And now… I’m ready to choose my forever. Love, Gertie

Story
Hi… I’m Joplin, wild heart, raspy spirit, and zero apologies (Yes, like Janis — and if you love her, I’m already your girl.) There’s just something about me. A vibe. A soul. A little rasp, a little magic. People say I remind them of an old-school singer who felt everything deeply — and honestly? I’ll take that as a compliment. My Story (told by me, obviously) I followed a couple home one day while they were walking their dogs. I just knew I needed people. No one in the neighborhood claimed me, and it was pretty clear I’d been through a lot. I was covered in mites, missing most of my fur, and needed way more medical care than they could give — so they called Freedom Frenchie Rescue, and that’s when my glow-up really started. I’ve worked hard to heal, inside and out. And let me tell you… I’ve come a LONG way. My Heart & Personality I am a total sweetheart. Dogs? Love them. People? Love them more. Strangers? I’ll go right up and say hi. I do have a little fear of being left — I like knowing my people are nearby. Confidence and reassurance are huge for me, and when I have that? I absolutely thrive. I love watching the other dogs, playing with them, and supervising everyone like the tiny potato manager I’ve become. My foster dad says I float around the yard, snorting, supervising, and doing my very un-graceful walk — and honestly, he just giggles the whole time. Same, sir. Same. He really has nothing bad to say about me, lets be real if he did he would be reporting it to Mo. My Medical Notes (the honest part) I’ve recovered really well, but I’m still missing some patches of fur. Most of it has grown back — it just took a long time, and it may continue filling in at my new home. I also had surgery to remove my cherry eyes… and yep, they came back. One is always out, the other pops in and out. We’re not doing another surgery — because this is who I am. And if someone doesn’t want me because of that? They’re missing out on a whole lotta love. Around here, personality > looks, always. The Important Stuff • I love snacks. • I love treats. • I love food. • Did I mention snacks? • The cuddles they are a must, you better fall asleep before me if snoring keeps you awake! I’m potty trained, rarely have accidents, and I know how to use the doggie door like a pro. I’m likely mixed with English Bulldog, I’m on the smaller side, and I’ve officially turned into a round little potato — perfect for cuddling, obviously. My Final Pitch If anyone is going to put a New Years spell on you… it’s me. I’m the 2026 miracle you didn’t know you needed at midnight. My unique look fits my loving, soulful, irresistible personality perfectly. I give off an energy that people feel — and once you feel it, you’re done for. I promise. So if you’re looking for love, laughter, snorts, supervision, cuddles, and a little rock-and-roll soul… Love Joplin and a glass of Jack. And I’m ready to come home and you can have a piece of my heart. I am vaccinated, spay and microchipped, currently I am being fostered in Scottsdale, AZ. My adoption donation fee is $1050.00. You can apply for me at freedomfrenchierescue.org.

Story
SOOKIE — Back and Better Than Ever (Well… Almost!) Hi friends! It’s me, Sookie, and guess what? I’m BACK with my Freedom Family! I know, I know — you probably thought I was living my best life (if you want to call it that he didn’t even have a blanket for me it was an effen towel) after my February adoption. But sometimes life doesn’t go the way we plan, and I came back a little different. My rescue family asked to send me with some of my items, and it was literally the towel… When I returned, I was 8 pounds lighter, itchy all over, missing some fur, and feeling a little nervous and unsure of myself. My confidence had taken a vacation, and my skin was throwing a full-blown protest. But the good news? I’m in the right hands again, and my Freedom Squad is helping me heal — inside and out! Seriously this foster mom has the biggest smile with me every minute of the day and wipes me down daily, wrinkles, paws, ears and then I get paid in treats!!! Like GIRL that feels good, shouldn’t I be paying you! About Me (The Good Stuff) Let’s start with the important things: I’m an absolute love bug. If I had my way, you’d never stop giving me kisses and cuddles. Seriously, I could cuddle for sport and won the gold medal at the Olympics. I’m also your typical ball-obsessed Frenchie — if it bounces, rolls, or squeaks, it’s mine! I’ll chase it, thrash it, and proudly show it off like I just won a championship. I’m crate trained like a pro — but fair warning, I require one small payment before entering: a treat. (haha paid again) You’re basically paying me for my cuteness, and I think that’s a fair deal. (Honestly, I should have my own OF page for dogs.) At night, I’m happy to sleep in my crate or snuggle up right next to you in bed — your choice. I love food (like, love love it), so a slow feeder bowl is my best friend. I’ve also been known to pull a little “heist” and sneak bites from other bowls if you’re not watching. Oops. Social Life I get along wonderfully with other dogs, even the bossy ones. I’ve adjusted beautifully to my foster home — and when my foster mom went on a trip, I stayed with a sitter for three days and did amazing! I’m still rebuilding my confidence, but every day I’m feeling a little more like the old Sookie again. I went to this Halloween event, and I was a legit smoke show, so I went to my area and just sat in the middle while all the other rescues came around sniffing me and I didn’t care one bit I was eating it up! Work in Progress Okay, real talk: potty training is still a thing. I do go to the back door to signal when I need to potty, but sometimes I forget and start sniffing around the floor. Basically, I’m inpatient and don’t want to hold it. So, when I say I have to go that means I HAVE TO GO. My foster mom says that’s my “take me out NOW” cue. I’ve had a few accidents, but I’m working on it — promise! My Skin & Health When I came back, my allergies were out of control. I’m currently on a special limited-ingredient diet, antibiotics for my ears and paws, a probiotic supplement, and Duoxo S3 for my hot spots. My ears need regular cleaning, and my wrinkles get wiped down daily (I call it my spa treatment). My foster mom says I’m healing beautifully and looking more fabulous every day. We are trying to avoid allergy meds because they are toxic but if it is a must then we will! What I’m Looking For I just want a home that will love me for the long haul — through the itchy days, the cuddly nights, and the ball-chasing chaos in between. I’m starting over, and I know this time it’s going to be forever. So, if you’re looking for a loyal snuggle bug with a heart of gold (and a personality that belongs on reality TV), come meet me. I promise I’ll make you laugh, fill your heart, and maybe steal your snacks. Apply for me at freedomfrenchierescue.org, I am located in Tempe, AZ and have been spay vaccinated and microchipped from last time. Also my adoption donation fee is $1050.00.

I love watching the other dogs, playing with them, and supervising everyone like the tiny potato manager I’ve become. My foster dad says I float around the yard, snorting, supervising, and doing my very un-graceful walk — and honestly, he just giggles the whole time. Same, sir. Same. He really has nothing bad to say about me, lets be real if he did he would be reporting it to Mo. My Medical Notes (the honest part) I’ve recovered really well, but I’m still missing some patches of fur. Most of it has grown back — it just took a long time, and it may continue filling in at my new home. I also had surgery to remove my cherry eyes… and yep, they came back. One is always out, the other pops in and out. We’re not doing another surgery — because this is who I am. And if someone doesn’t want me because of that? They’re missing out on a whole lotta love. Around here, personality > looks, always. The Important Stuff • I love snacks. • I love treats. • I love food. • Did I mention snacks? • The cuddles they are a must, you better fall asleep before me if snoring keeps you awake! I’m potty trained, rarely have accidents, and I know how to use the doggie door like a pro. I’m likely mixed with English Bulldog, I’m on the smaller side, and I’ve officially turned into a round little potato — perfect for cuddling, obviously. My Final Pitch If anyone is going to put a New Years spell on you… it’s me. I’m the 2026 miracle you didn’t know you needed at midnight. My unique look fits my loving, soulful, irresistible personality perfectly. I give off an energy that people feel — and once you feel it, you’re done for. I promise. So if you’re looking for love, laughter, snorts, supervision, cuddles, and a little rock-and-roll soul… Love Joplin and a glass of Jack. And I’m ready to come home and you can have a piece of my heart. I am vaccinated, spay and microchipped, currently I am being fostered in Scottsdale, AZ. My adoption donation fee is $1050.00. You can apply for me at freedomfrenchierescue.org.

Story
SOOKIE — Back and Better Than Ever (Well… Almost!) Hi friends! It’s me, Sookie, and guess what? I’m BACK with my Freedom Family! I know, I know — you probably thought I was living my best life (if you want to call it that he didn’t even have a blanket for me it was an effen towel) after my February adoption. But sometimes life doesn’t go the way we plan, and I came back a little different. My rescue family asked to send me with some of my items, and it was literally the towel… When I returned, I was 8 pounds lighter, itchy all over, missing some fur, and feeling a little nervous and unsure of myself. My confidence had taken a vacation, and my skin was throwing a full-blown protest. But the good news? I’m in the right hands again, and my Freedom Squad is helping me heal — inside and out! Seriously this foster mom has the biggest smile with me every minute of the day and wipes me down daily, wrinkles, paws, ears and then I get paid in treats!!! Like GIRL that feels good, shouldn’t I be paying you! About Me (The Good Stuff) Let’s start with the important things: I’m an absolute love bug. If I had my way, you’d never stop giving me kisses and cuddles. Seriously, I could cuddle for sport and won the gold medal at the Olympics. I’m also your typical ball-obsessed Frenchie — if it bounces, rolls, or squeaks, it’s mine! I’ll chase it, thrash it, and proudly show it off like I just won a championship. I’m crate trained like a pro — but fair warning, I require one small payment before entering: a treat. (haha paid again) You’re basically paying me for my cuteness, and I think that’s a fair deal. (Honestly, I should have my own OF page for dogs.) At night, I’m happy to sleep in my crate or snuggle up right next to you in bed — your choice. I love food (like, love love it), so a slow feeder bowl is my best friend. I’ve also been known to pull a little “heist” and sneak bites from other bowls if you’re not watching. Oops. Social Life I get along wonderfully with other dogs, even the bossy ones. I’ve adjusted beautifully to my foster home — and when my foster mom went on a trip, I stayed with a sitter for three days and did amazing! I’m still rebuilding my confidence, but every day I’m feeling a little more like the old Sookie again. I went to this Halloween event, and I was a legit smoke show, so I went to my area and just sat in the middle while all the other rescues came around sniffing me and I didn’t care one bit I was eating it up! Work in Progress Okay, real talk: potty training is still a thing. I do go to the back door to signal when I need to potty, but sometimes I forget and start sniffing around the floor. Basically, I’m inpatient and don’t want to hold it. So, when I say I have to go that means I HAVE TO GO. My foster mom says that’s my “take me out NOW” cue. I’ve had a few accidents, but I’m working on it — promise! My Skin & Health When I came back, my allergies were out of control. I’m currently on a special limited-ingredient diet, antibiotics for my ears and paws, a probiotic supplement, and Duoxo S3 for my hot spots. My ears need regular cleaning, and my wrinkles get wiped down daily (I call it my spa treatment). My foster mom says I’m healing beautifully and looking more fabulous every day. We are trying to avoid allergy meds because they are toxic but if it is a must then we will! What I’m Looking For I just want a home that will love me for the long haul — through the itchy days, the cuddly nights, and the ball-chasing chaos in between. I’m starting over, and I know this time it’s going to be forever. So, if you’re looking for a loyal snuggle bug with a heart of gold (and a personality that belongs on reality TV), come meet me. I promise I’ll make you laugh, fill your heart, and maybe steal your snacks. Apply for me at freedomfrenchierescue.org, I am located in Tempe, AZ and have been spay vaccinated and microchipped from last time. Also my adoption donation fee is $1050.00.

These pups are in Mesa, Arizona too!

Story
I’m Vinnie – CEO of Vacuum Hater CLub I’m a three-year-old low-rider exotic bully, built solid and close to the ground. I’m not loud or flashy—I’m the kind of guy who watches first, settles in, and keeps things steady. I’ve transitioned into rescue life incredibly well, and that says a lot about who I am. My Daily Vibe I’m a very good boy. I haven’t had a single accident since coming into foster care. I sleep through the night, go to bed without issue, and handle routine like a pro. I’m not big on playing or causing chaos. I get along well with other dogs and mostly mind my own business. I love hopping up on the couch and going straight to sleep—it’s kind of my thing. I absolutely love being outside. When the weather’s nice and the back door is open, I’ll spend most of my day out there doing my thing. Sometimes I lay in the sun, sometimes I just hang out and exist. My foster has to check on me because I’m so content out there. If the door isn’t open, I’ll sit patiently by it until you let me out. No fuss, no drama—just waiting. Food, Treats & the Good Stuff I eat really well and I love my treats. Morning Greek yogurt with blueberries? That’s top-tier in my book. I appreciate the good things in life and don’t take them for granted. A Few Things You Should Know About Me I get very excited when loud electronic things turn on—vacuums, blow dryers, even the Insta Pot. I take those noises personally. I’ve gone after another dog a couple of times when those sounds were happening, but I do correct pretty well. My foster keeps us separated during noisy moments now, and that works great. I will bark while the noise is happening, but once it’s over, I settle back down. I’m still figuring out men. There’s one guy—Damien—who I haven’t trusted yet. I charged him once when he surprised me in the backyard, and again later when he tried to pet me. I let him at first and then changed my mind. I’ve been friendly with most other people, so this seems situational, but it tells you I need slow introductions, space, and time to decide someone is safe. Once I trust you, I’m solid. My Rescue Story I was saved from an LA shelter where I was sitting on the euthanasia list with no interest and no time left. Freedom Frenchie Rescue wanted me, but being in Arizona and not partnered with that shelter made things complicated. Time was running out fast. Then a family stepped up and adopted me just to save my life. I was super skinny and severely malnourished when they got me, and because of their care, commitment, and love, I’ve gained about 7–8 pounds and finally look and feel like myself again. They made sure I was medically cared for, safe, and loved—even knowing they weren’t meant to be my forever. Later, a friend of the rescue asked if Freedom Frenchie could take me in, and now here I am. Mo met in San Diego to get me and I had a backpack full of separated meals, toys, treats, medications, and my favorite blanket. That kind of love sticks with a dog. It also stuck with Mo she said “there are good people, cut from the same cloth Vinnie” Funny how life works—rescue tried to get me in at the end of October and couldn’t, and now I’m here, safe, steady, and hanging out with a bully-experienced foster. I want it said clearly: I’m alive because someone chose me when no one else did. The Home I’m Looking For I’m looking for a calm, structured home with someone who understands that trust doesn’t happen overnight and that rescues don’t come with instant expectations. I do best with slow introductions, especially with men, and a human who respects my space while showing up consistently. A yard where I can hang out, sunbathe, and quietly enjoy my time would make me very happy. I’m not here for chaos or pressure—I’m here for stability, patience, and a home that understands who I am. Final Word from Me I’m not a puppy. I’m not a clown. I’m a solid, loyal, low-key guy who’s still learning what real safety feels like. Don’t rush me. Don’t expect perfection. If you give me patience, respect my boundaries, and let me grow into myself, I’ll meet you there—steady and loyal the whole way. If that sounds like your kind of dog, I might just be your guy. Love, Vinnie This guy is vaccinated, spay and microchipped, he is being fostered in Mesa, AZ. His adoption donation fee is $1100.00 and you can apply for him at freedomfrenchierescue.org

Story
Meet Wrigley- Heartbroken Return My Love Story Began on the Freeway Be mine? I’m Leroy Wrigley, two years old, a bulldog with a big heart, big feelings, and a love story that didn’t start out easy. I came from the 5 Freeway and the Orange County Shelter, where I was labeled “not adoptable” because no one could safely touch me. Not a single Cupid could get close. Freedom Frenchie Rescue stepped in anyway, sending a full rescue team to scoop my dramatic bulldog booty, get me safely to San Diego, and then all the way to Arizona, where my real transformation began. Learning to Trust (and Fall in Love) When I arrived at Mo’s house, I was finally given the time and space to decompress. I had my own cozy area, soft blankets, gentle voices, and regular meals. I learned what “potty outside” meant, started to feel safe, and slowly realized that humans weren’t as scary as I once believed. The “don’t touch me” Grinch in me softened, and little by little, love started to replace fear. I was adotped 2 weeks ago and now I am being returned.. I smell fear in people Its better to ignore me until you figure me out. Yea I know its the opposite but when you ignore me I want more love and I listen way better to get that! 333 rule needs to be applied with me I have to have time to decompress and transition. I do not live in this fast-paced world humans do. When I started at Mo’s she did 555. My Signature Wobble & Ongoing Care I have a very distinctive walk—one I proudly call my signature wobble. Like many English Bulldogs, I have hip dysplasia, but mine is a little extra spicy. My hip sockets didn’t form correctly, which gives me a hip-hoppin’, wiggly strut that turns heads wherever I go. Freedom Frenchie Rescue took new X-rays and confirmed that I’ll need physical therapy in my future, along with good supplements and maintaining a healthy weight. I came in underweight at first, but with the right meds, care, and love, I’m doing really well. A Bulldog Personality with a Soft Center Personality-wise, I am a bulldog through and through. I’m demanding, opinionated, dramatic when things don’t go my way, and honestly very funny. Once I decide you’re my person, my loyalty runs deep. In the beginning, I was very unsure about being touched and did try to bite—fear talking, not aggression. Sometimes when I’m picked up, I’ll still grumble like an old man being woken from a nap, but I have never actually hurt anyone. Now, I seek out affection, rest my big head in your lap, roll over for belly rubs, and absolutely melt when you scratch the side of my neck. House-Trained, Healed, and Still Growing I’m pretty much potty trained, eat like a champion, and since my neuter, I’ve stopped trying to decorate the house with leg lifts. I’m proud to report zero poop accidents. I can be around other dogs as long as they mostly ignore me, which suits me just fine. With time, trust, and patience, I could absolutely have a dog friend in the future. My Perfect Valentine Home I’m looking for someone who understands sweet-but-spicy bulldogs, keeps snacks nearby, and believes in slow trust-building with a big heart. I love scratches everywhere except my hips for now, and in return, I promise to bring goofy charm, wobbly joy, and unwavering loyalty into your life. All I’m Missing Is You I’m Leroy Wrigley—a fighter, a lover, a wiggle-walker, and a redeemed freeway boy. I’m finally ready to be warm, safe, and adored. Maybe on your couch, maybe by your side, but definitely in your heart. PS I am vaccinated, microchipped and neutered, currently I am being fostered in Mesa, AZ. My adoption donation fee is $1050.00 and you can check out how to adopt me at freedomfrenchierescue.org and apply for there too! *Please Note: All learning and guidance must continue in their new home. A dog’s behavior can change with a new environment and energy, and every family’s dynamic is different. What works or is allowed in one foster home may not be the same in yours, so consistency, patience, and continued training are key to their success.
