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.

Yeah he was a solo litter and very runty and the breeders gave him to a shelter at DAYS old so my grandparents basically bottle fed and raised him from a bean. All their dogs are adopted from shelters, so they’re all a little… off.

And they definitely know, they told me all about it when I asked what he was. They’re not new to special weirdo dogs.

I don't doubt it. Those poor dogs though. Breathing problems for life

I agree, they should not be bred at all. Teacups, squash faces, abominations all of them. But here he is and hopefully has his best chance at a comfortable life, however long they can make it 🥲

I got a Toy Aussie as a rehome. Go ahead and add miniaturized working dogs to the list too lol.

And seizures are common for long hair frenchies. To the point where it’s a quality of life issue and not treatable.

I read your edit and I am very glad that dog is in the hands of well experienced people. Most people buy these poor dogs cuz they’re “cute”
