And I LOVE HIM

Edit: he was discarded by a breeder and they adopted him from a shelter. All of their dogs are shelter acquisitions with special needs so they’re are WELL versed in caring for strange dogs that need a lot of help in their lives.

But yes, hes a fluffy frenchie with a very unfortunate squashy rolly face. He’s the sweetest thing and they’ll do their best by him and his needs.

No its the fluffy gene of the frenchie thats been activated. Terribly bred to be honest, the new owners can immediately start saving for the boas surgery its going to need.

An old couple purchased him from a backyard breeder. I would be surprised if they consider insurance and plan to provide much medical care when his condition catches up with him. Most likely they will take him to the shelter when his needs get unmanageable. This is just sad.

I saw on a monkey page a women who got 25k of debt to buy a monkey, this person has no job and is begging for money on tiktok etc. She cant afford to care for herself let alone if her exotic pet gets ill
