Hi. I’m Derek.
I’m three years old, French, and extremely soft—like velvet chocolate cloud soft. Please be respectful.
I’ve had a bit of a glow-up medically. My nares and palate have been fixed, I’m neutered, and my ears had a TECA procedure after some really nasty infections. Because of that, I’m mostly deaf now—but don’t panic. I’m very good at watching my people for cues. If you move, I notice. If you sit, I appear. If you open cheese… I am already there.
I like other dogs just fine, but if I’m being honest? People are my favorite. I don’t need to be an only dog, but I would also thrive as the center of your universe. I do require a fenced yard, mostly because I enjoy frequent outdoor visits. I have a small bladder and prefer not to hold important things like that.
Food-wise, I’m currently on a hydrolyzed diet. I had an allergic reaction a few weeks ago (rude mystery, never identified), but I’m all better now. My diet is very exclusive: hydrolyzed food and cheese. This arrangement is non-negotiable.
I am crate-trained, an excellent snuggler, and deeply devoted to my people. I will press myself against you like I’m trying to merge souls. That’s just how I love.
Full transparency: I’ve had a little phase where I tried marking a few spots in the house. I’ve since been closely supervised (apparently tethered friendships are a thing), and I’m doing much better. I just need someone who watches me closely and takes me outside often. Fair trade, honestly.
I’m not perfect—but I am gentle, affectionate, loyal, and very serious about cuddling. If you want a soft, soulful Frenchie who will watch you constantly and love you deeply, I think we should meet.
Love,
Derek 🖤🐾
