BIX - FRENCH BULLDOG (SHORT COAT) DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: French Bulldog (short coat). Meet Bix – A Snorty, Wiggly Bundle of Joy! Breed: French Bulldog Age: Approx. 6 years Weight: 23 lbs Spayed Female After spending the first part of her life making babies for a breeder, Bix is finally ready to be pampered and cherished as a beloved companion! Bix is new to SVPP, but she’s already showing us what a gem she is. She rides beautifully in the car, enjoys going for walks, and only pulls when she's trying to keep up with her faster pals. She adores people and gets along with most dogs. As a typical bully breed, she can be a bit forward in her greetings, so slow introductions with shyer dogs are best. Like many Frenchies, Bix comes with a few special considerations that her forever family will need to embrace: Allergies & Chronic Ear Issues: Years of untreated ear infections have caused nerve damage, resulting in a head tilt and some facial paralysis. Eye Care: Due to paralysis on the right side of her face, she can’t blink that eye properly and needs over-the-counter ointment daily to keep it hydrated. Heat Sensitivity: With her short nose and elongated palate, she’s very sensitive to heat and needs to be closely monitored in warm weather. None of these are unusual for experienced Frenchie lovers, and thankfully, Bix is a total champ when it comes to her daily eye and skin care—she loves the attention! Despite her past and her special needs, Bix is a happy, affectionate girl who’s ready to bring endless joy and snuggles to her forever family. As her foster mom says: “She will snort and wiggle her way into anyone's heart. Guaranteed.”
