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!
*Penny’s bio may change as we get to know her better.

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.

Activity Level: moderate.

Good with Children: Arlo lives with toddlers and children- in fact his current mom runs an in-home daycare. He is sweet and gentle with children. It seems he keeps an eye on the child and looks out for them. Since Arlo’s nature is soft and gentle in general we feel that dog savvy respectful kid’s that have responsible parents whom teach appropriate boundaries would be an asset.
Prey drive: No.
Response to the outdoors: Arlo likes the outdoors. No issue with busy streets. Arlo likes his walks and enjoys being outside. He is not super active though.
Crate-Trained: Yes, however he refuses to eat while in his crate.
Resource guarding: None.
Response to commands: Arlo has great recall, and will sit and stay, lay down, and respond to 'off'.
Are they vocal: He has barked only a handful of times. He will howl with sirens.

Meet Arlo: Your Future Best Friend!
Arlo is a charming 3-year-old male Great Dane looking for his forever home! He’s fantastic with kids, loves playing with other dogs, and enjoys his daily walks, making him the perfect companion for family adventures. Arlo has great recall, is crate trained, and exhibits good leash manners. Arlo does hate the rain.
This gentle giant is not only non-destructive and quiet but also adapts well to a variety of animals, including chickens, ducks, and even a rabbit! He shows curiosity towards cats but is not aggressive.
Arlo's previous living situation included a lot of hustle and bustle, which has made him a bit protective at times, particularly around men in reflective clothing. His family believes he would thrive in a quieter environment, where he can feel more at ease.
While Arlo loves the delivery men and enjoys the occasional cookie treat from their trucks, he would prefer a home without constant traffic and many visitors, providing him the perfect balance of security and relaxation. He is neutered, microchipped, vaccinated, and on preventative care.
If you’re looking for a loyal and loving companion who will bring joy to your home, Arlo is ready to be your new best friend! Would you open your heart and home to this sweet boy? If so, please fill out a Canine Adoption Application.
