Every now and again, we really have to dig down deep into our hearts to decide whether a life is worth saving. It’s not all that hard a decision to make when you’re willing to put your common sense aside and just look at that little face looking back at you. At least it wasn’t a difficult decision for our wonderful volunteer, Pam Mayes, When we told her about our little French Bulldog puppy with legs that didn’t seem to work at all, Pam didn’t even hesitate. She immediately agreed to take her in.

In Loving Memory of Spike

Just this past week, the FBVillage lost a grand little French Bulldog. He didn’t give his foster mom much occasion to believe he was ill until the day he died, and then he went peacefully, drifting away in his sleep, curled up in his bed only a few feet away from her chair.
He had [...]

We are Family!

All my sisters and me!
The FBVillage has so many applicants from the North and the East that we thought we might just move a few Missouri and Oklahoma FBVillage foster dogs a teeny tiny bit closer to all those wonderful applicants… To that end, we’ve convinced Kathy Clayton, our FBVillage Mid West Regional Manager to [...]

Jackson – I’m a Frenchton!

Jackson
Jackson is a French Bulldog/Boston Terrier cross, what is commonly known as a Frenchton. He is a strongly built, happy little dog, with a friendly and outgoing personality, and enough energy to power a dozen dogs. He loves his mom to death, and he loves his buddies at the doggie day care, and [...]

Honey

Honey
Poor little Honey came from a backyard breeder who really didn’t how to properly take care of the French Bulldogs that she owned.  Honey’s uterus was riddled with scar tissue, and the C-section staples that held it together after her last delivery had become infected.  As if that were not enough trouble for any one [...]

Po – I’m a SPECIAL NEEDS Girl!

Po
This tiny little sweetheart of a French Bulldog has a very serious problem. She has, in the vernacular, a “bum ticker”. You would never know anything was wrong with her to look at her. She is playful and loves to run around (she is FULL of energy ). However, heat and humidity [...]

Jesse

Jesse
Jesse first came into the French Bulldog Village in July, 2009 as a breeder surrender.  When she was turned over to rescue, the poor girl was covered with sores, the result of playing in a yard that had been freshly treated with chemical spray.
Once her skin was cleared up and she had adjusted to life [...]

Lucy Louise – Adoption pending 8/09/2010!

Lucy Louise
Little Lucy Louise is a puppy mill veteran, and there are entire years of her life that she would like to forget. Like so many mill dogs, she is very calm, quiet, and undemanding and wants only to have the opportunity to be next to someone, to be somebody’s constant companion. She [...]

Zoey, a Little Bit Frenchie and a Little Bit Not!

Early one morning not so long ago, the shelter staff at the Lake City Animal Shelter in Lake City, Florida pulled an odd little creature out of the overnight drop boxes outside the shelter’s front doors. The note on the kennel indicated that this dog was a biter, which put an end to any possibility that our little Miss Zoey would find a home among the good citizens of Lake City and environs. The Lake City Animal Shelter is a high volume kill shelter, and like so many other unwanted dogs, it looked as though Zoey was on a fast track from the drop box into the fire.

In Loving Memory of LouLou

I brought her home last July, a frightened angry little old blind French Bulldog, turned out by the person she had lived with since she was a puppy. He didn’t even know how old she was, maybe 10 or 11. She had traveled with him across country, he said, from New York to [...]
