Meet the handsome McFly! Named for the classic, Marty McFly, from Back to the Future. This McFly is on his own epic journey, searching for his very own forever home!
McFly is your typical bully mix, full of beans and super sweet with his people. This adorable pup is sure to win over your heart with his good looks and sweetheart personality. McFly loves to be outdoors and would love a family that will include him in their outdoor activities. He would be a great hiking buddy! He also loves car rides and will make a great companion for all your adventures.
McFly is one smart cookie! He already knows a few commands and even takes his treats gently. What a good boy! He is crate trained and does not bark in the crate, though he will bark sometimes when playing. He is still learning some leash manners as he can pull but he would likely respond well to consistent positive reinforcement training to help him be a star at walking on leash.
Initially McFly was quite fearful but has improved with time and has become less so. He seems to be a bit wary of strangers and new people. He would benefit from a home that would help build his confidence and become more comfortable with handling and new people. McFly has shown some reactivity towards other dogs as he has reacted back when other dogs have barked and lunged at him. He has done better around more neutral dogs.
With the right family, McFly will flourish into a truly amazing dog! If McFly sounds like the perfect fit for you, please submit a Canine Adoption Application.
French Bulldog | 3.5 years | Female
*We cannot guarantee breed nor age.
Temperament: Sweet, high energy, incredibly intelligent.
Activity Level: Medium-High energy.
Vetting: Vaccinated (DH2PP, Rabies), spayed, microchipped, dewormed, on flea/tick/heartworm prevention year-round. Penny is on Fluoxetine and Gabapentin which has helped significantly. She also has allergies to turkey, chicken, duck and lamb (developed a significant rash on her belly). She had a small reaction to fish (very tiny rash) so we have been avoiding that protein as well. So far she seems ok with beef, kangaroo and pork. Due to the breed's susceptibility to health issues, a home with knowledge around French Bulldog’s common issues is essential. Pet insurance is a must! Future owners should take precautions to avoid overheating, limit stress and seek immediate medical attention if she experiences respiratory distress.
Housebroken: Yes.
Good with Dogs: Penny is fantastic with dogs when out and about but can be protective and territorial at home. She may show resource guarding behaviour towards other dogs indoors, so a single-pet household is necessary. It’s important to note that all introductions to new dogs should be done in a careful and controlled manner.
Good with Cats: No.
Good with Children: No.
Prey Drive: Yes.
Response to outdoors: Penny adores walks, hiking and swimming, and she’s always curious about the world around her. She’s the perfect adventure buddy!
Crate-Trained: Yes.
Resource Guarding: Penny resource guards with other dogs but not with humans.
Response to Commands: She knows sit, stay, heel and fetch. She has been working hard in a board and train with the amazing Dog Hero to learn more fantastic skills.
Are they vocal: Not overly barky but she loves to express herself with grumbles and grunts. She will, however, alarm bark at knocks and doorbells.
Leash Etiquette: Penny is an excellent walker both on and off-leash, with solidly developing recall and a penchant for stopping to sniff around.
Transportation: Penny loves car rides and is always up for an adventure!
Introducing the charming Penny! Penny is a slow burn of love.
It is very important to note, however, she will be very apprehensive at first. In fact, for the first three weeks in foster care, she had to be kept leashed at all times as she wouldn’t allow us to put a leash on her collar without screaming. She has some issues around physical handling and needs trust with her handlers to be built slowly and patiently. After some time getting to know us, she did eventually relax and we are now able to do whatever we need for her for the most part. Once she gets over her initial fears and inhibitions, Penny is a real treat!
Penny can be a snuggly sweetheart who adores affection and belly rubs. However, again, it’s important to take this kind of affection very slowly with her until she feels fully at ease. She loves to start her day with playful energy, and if you’re going on an adventure, she wants to be right there beside you! Whether it’s hiking, swimming or just lounging around, Penny is your loyal companion, ready to jump into any family activity.
With her playful spirit, Penny will keep you entertained with her antics. She’s known for her joyful flips when excited and her adorable baby dragon that she snuggles with at night. Her quirky sideways glances and delightful sounds will have you laughing in no time!
Shaun from Dog Hero, who has been fostering and working with Penny, will provide guidance on how to set Penny up for success and continue her impressive development.
