Welcome to Freedom Frenchie Rescue Adoptables.

    Hi, I’m Opal — I bloom when I feel safe.

Three years old • French Bulldog / American Bulldog mix • Loyal, spicy, and full of hear.

My Story

When I came into Freedom Frenchie Rescue with my friends Ava and Val from Long Beach Shelter, I was in rough shape. I had a terrible case of kennel cough that made it hard to breathe, and I was completely drained. My foster mom kept me close to the humidifier, gave me my medicine, and let me rest for days while she whispered that everything was going to be okay.

Once I started to feel better, I finally got that little pep in my step again — and oh boy, did it feel good. I started wagging, exploring, and showing my playful side again. But my journey didn’t stop there… I still had some learning to do about trust and leadership.

My Personality

I’m a mix of French Bulldog and American Bulldog, which basically means I’m full of personality, smarts, and loyalty. I love deeply, but I also need direction, structure, and consistency. Without it, I get confused and anxious — and that’s when I can make poor choices with other dogs or get overly attached to my person.

I don’t want chaos and emotional. I want calm.

I don’t need saving. I need leading.

If you give me structure first and affection second, I’ll follow you anywhere. But if you smother me with love before boundaries are set, I’ll start calling the shots — and that’s where I get myself into trouble. I don’t want to be the boss; I just need someone who can show me what stability feels like.

My Ideal Home

I’m searching for a home with:

• Calm,      confident leadership — someone who believes in guidance, not chaos
• Structure      and routine — I feel safest when I know what to expect
• Positive,      steady energy — I’m sensitive to moods and environments
• Older      kids (13+) who understand that I need my space sometimes
• One      neutral dog who will ignore me… or no dogs at all
• Someone      open to ongoing training — because consistency changes everything

I can coexist beautifully when the energy is right and the rules are clear. I just need a person who sets the tone and gives me the security to settle.

My Habits & Hobbies

When the world feels calm, I’m at my best. I love to take long naps with a blanket tucked around me, and I fall asleep easiest when there’s ocean music playing in the background. I’m a big fan of Netflix nights after a long day of hiking or exploring — if you like to camp, walk, or just enjoy being outside, we’ll be best friends.

I’m learning crate training and view my crate as my safe space. I might bark at first, but I settle down. I’ll also let you know when I have to go potty, because I’m a communicator and I want to do things right.

Give me a few  bam bones, some puzzle toys, and a cozy blanket, and I’m in heaven.

My Healing

My spay surgery at the shelter didn’t heal right at first — the incision opened up and got a bit infected — but my rescue family jumped right in to help me recover. Between that and my kennel cough, I’ve been through quite a bit… but I’m feeling amazing now. I’m healthy, strong, and ready for my next chapter.

My Heart

If you look into my eyes, you’ll see both the struggle and the hope. I’ve been through uncertainty, but I’ve also learned what love looks like when it’s steady and real. When I feel safe, I soften. My whole face brightens, and I finally let my guard down.

I’m not for everyone — I’m for someone who understands dogs like me. Someone who believes in patience, calm energy, and consistency. Someone who can show me what it feels like to truly belong.

If you want a hiking buddy who’ll stay right by your side, a Netflix-and-cuddle partner who melts under blankets, and a best friend who will give you her full heart once she feels safe — that’s me. I’m Opal, and I’m ready to bloom.

   Hi, I’m Cutie - Yes… that’s really my name—and trust me, it fits.

How I Got My Name

So here’s the deal: I was found at the QT, and the rescue posted me everywhere hoping someone would come forward and say, “That’s my dog.” They waited two full months to see if anyone had lost me… but no one ever did. Honestly? It’s probably for the best—because whatever my life was before this was fucking terrible. Being overlooked turned out to be the thing that saved me. From there, I landed at FFR, started my glow-up, and officially became Cutie—because after everything I’ve been through, softness finally found me.

The Real Me

I’m 3 years old and 23 lbs of pure snuggle energy. When I first came into rescue, I was terrified. I would crouch down when people approached, unsure if love was coming or not. Fast-forward a couple months and now? I jump up when I see you—because I KNOW affection is waiting on the other side. Love changed everything for me.

Cuddle Queen Status

Let’s get one thing straight: I am a professional couch potato with a PhD in snuggling. I’m potty trained, crate trained (though I will 100% choose your bed if given the option), and I firmly believe blankets and pillows are non-negotiable life essentials. I roll over instantly for belly rubs, never say no to a treat, and I take my cuddle responsibilities very seriously.

Playtime & Friends

I love toys—especially Nylabones—and I adore playing with my foster sibling Violet, who is just a teeny tiny baby. I’m gentle, playful, and sweet with other dogs. Basically, I’m the fun aunt who also wants to nap immediately after.

My Health & Care

I came in with a serious ear infection, but good news—it’s cleared up! That said, my ears will need to be cleaned twice a week, no skipping allowed. It’s an absolute must for me to stay comfortable and healthy.

I also struggle with yeast and allergies, but don’t worry—we’ve got them under control now. I’m on allergy meds and a prescription diet, and WOW has it made a difference. I’m feeling better every day.

Oh—and yes, I have crate feet (I go full gremlin paws in the crate, not my fault I lived in one…), but those will improve with time and confidence.

Foster Life Commentary

I love my foster dad, beg him for food regularly, and attempt to manage my foster mom’s job… though I usually fall asleep before I can clock in. Turns out, supervising humans is exhausting.

My Perfect Home

I never knew what “spoiled” meant before rescue—but now I do, and I’m ready to keep living that life. I’m looking for a family who understands routines, keeps up with my ear care and diet, and wants a loyal, affectionate, slightly bossy cuddle companion.

If you’re searching for a dog who will make your house feel like home, warm your heart, and steal your blankets—

I’m your girl. 

Forever & Always

  Yogurt Here - Best Ears in the Game • Soft Soul • Sorority Barbie With a Healing Heart 

Hi. It’s me. Yogurt. I know… weird name. Iconic, though. I’m two years old, about 23 pounds, and I have the literal best ears you’ve ever seen. Like… truly. Show-stopping. Legendary, Slap some bows on them and tell me they aren’t… But if you really look into my eyes, you’ll see something deeper than just a pretty face. You’ll see a girl who has felt loss and loneliness. I’m a girl who has been left. A girl who is still learning that humans can be safe and that love can stay. I’m beautiful, but I’m also emotionally healing myself with the help of Freedom Frenchie Rescue and my foster mom.

My Story (The Part That Shaped Me)

I was found alone in the desert in Palmdale. When the people who found me took me to get scanned, I had a microchip. My people were contacted and they didn’t want me back. Were they really my people? Were they the ones who dumped me? We don’t know. What we do know is that being left changes a dog. It leaves cracks. It leaves questions. It leaves insecurity. Freedom Frenchie Rescue was contacted, and they said yes to me when others didn’t. And now I’m here. Learning. Growing. Trying.

My Personality (Soft Heart, Spicy Edges)

I am what you might call a sorority Barbie mean girl in recovery. I can be sweet, I can be cuddly, I can be hilarious, and I can also be a bossy. I’m not the kind of dog who instantly wants to be besties with other dogs. I may be able to live with another dog and coexist, but I need a very specific type of dog friend — one who truly does not care that I exist. Low-key. Unbothered. Neutral energy. That will leave me alone. If you want a dog for your dog to be friends with, go to the next profile. When dogs run around playing near me, I sometimes feel the need to insert myself in a negative way, even though I don’t actually want the toy or the game. I just want control of the situation. Like just let me BOSS.  It’s something my rescue and foster family are actively working on with me through slow introductions, structure, socializing and training. I am not a lost cause. I am not broken. I am insecure. And insecure dogs need patience, leadership, and consistency. With the right home and the right human, I truly believe I’m going to become an incredible dog.

My Ideal Home

I would do best as an only dog or with a very neutral, calm dog who could not care less that I exist. Only apply for me if your current pet truly ignores other dogs or if you don’t have pets at all, as we are actively working through some training needs and will continue to update my profile as I progress. Cats are a hard no for me. I’m just not a fan. Kids are a big YES. I love kids and do wonderfully with them. I mean that drop snacks and let me lick their face, plus the cuddle factor is always there!

My Good Girl Qualities

I take treats very gently and walk amazingly on leash like I’m on a mission. I love car rides, I love walks, I like meeting people, and I get excited when you come home. I love naps on your lap or curled up on my favorite couch pillow. I’m pretty much potty trained. I had a few accidents when I first arrived, but once I settled in, I’ve been doing great. I had a slower emotional transition than most. In the beginning I barely ate, tipped my bowl over, and struggled with change. Now I eat at mealtimes and feel much more stable. Progress, baby.

My Medical Stuff

I’m medically sound and overall healthy. I do have some minor allergies, and we’re currently managing them through diet instead of relying on daily allergy medication. I’m on a lamb-based diet and doing really well. The paw licking has almost stopped, which is a huge win. Keep my face clean please, I mean I am all white and tear stains are unbecoming and itchy!

A Note From Me

I am not for everyone. And that’s okay. I am for someone who understands that when trust is built, behavior changes. When trust is built, confidence grows. When trust is built, we both win. I have so much potential. I am going to blossom. I just need someone willing to give me a chance. If you’re looking for a beautiful, complex, funny, cuddly, snack-loving, healing soul who will love you hard once she knows you’re not going anywhere… And I’m ready to try.

The Ultimate Adventure Buddy & Cuddle Companion! 

Boba 2 year old and weights 27-pound French Bulldog with a heart as big as his journey. Found as a stray in Southern California, he came into rescue with a prolapsed rectum that required multiple surgeries. After two unsuccessful purse string procedures, he underwent a more invasive surgery to secure his rectum to his stomach wall. Despite everything he’s been through, Boba remains an incredibly sweet, affectionate, and resilient little guy. 

Personality Perks: This handsome boy has a playful, gentle nature and enjoys romping around with his foster sibling. When Boba gets excited, he hops like a bunny off his back legs, it is to cute! He generally gets along well with females and some males, but if challenged, he will stand his ground and it is not pretty. Disagreements are rare and typically revolve around food, attention, or toys, so structured mealtimes and supervision will help set him up for success. With time, patience, and guidance, Boba continues to show excellent progress in his interactions. His ultimate perk is chasing lizards, he will watch the wall and scan every section thinking he will get a lizard! Boba is full time entertainment

Training Quirks: Boba is also quite the well-mannered pup! He knows basic commands, including “sit” and “wait” for treats, and he’s very patient in his crate. His house training is improving, but due to his medical history, controlling his bowels has been a challenge. Thankfully, with a carefully managed diet, he’s making great strides and having no accidents. Consistence in his nutrition will be key to his long-term success. Must watch him poop and distract him immediately when the turd drops. Do not let him eat it he will go backwards on thousands we have spent on him to get healthy.

Companion Love: When it comes to companionship, Boba is the full package. He has the perfect balance of playful energy and laid-back cuddles. He loves hard chew toys, with yak and bam bones being his absolute favorite. Boba needs a leader, he likes to work because he has big energy. He also likes to sleep and cuddle. This dude makes an excellent travel companion—once settled in the car, he prefers to take a cozy nap. Whether it’s a hiking trip in cool weather, a weekend camping getaway, or a stroll through a local farmers’ market, Boba is always up for an adventure. Home 

Medical Endeavors: Boba has been through quite the medical issues dealing with his prolapse. He has had two purse string surgeries that were not successful. Our next step was Colpopexy surgery, it was successful but only for a few weeks and his rectum came out again. With his original prolapse his rectum was 8.5in (that is unheard of). We have been to the vet several times and have had several discussions with our primary and our specialist. Boba's issue is that he is straining he is straining every time he goes to the bathroom. We have tried calming meds but it does not help and they make him aggressive. We are trying one last medication to see if that helps him stop straining. While he is going #2 we are distracting him from straining but it is not always working. We just did a gut biome test on him and everything came back great!!! 

Update: Boba has successfully kept in his rectum and is doing wonderfully. For awhile no eye can be taken off him while he is outside going potty.

Needs: Boba’s ideal home will be one that understands his medical needs and is committed to maintaining his specialized diet. He would do better as an only dog or with a compatible canine companion (a dog that plays with him but lets him lead and is smaller then him), given proper introductions and time to adjust. Following the 333 rule—giving him time to decompress in a new environment—will help him transition smoothly. This incredible boy has overcome so much and is now ready to find a forever home that will cherish him for the amazing dog he is. 

If you’re looking for a loyal, affectionate, and adventurous best friend, Boba is waiting for you! He is fully vaccinated, microchipped, and neutered. His adoption donation fee is $1000.00. You can apply for Boba at freedomfrenchierescue.org, and check out the adoption process as well.

    Food, snacks, love, trash cans...oh hey I'm Bronson! 

I’m Bronson, a 5-year-old Exotic Bully, clocking in at a solid 55 pounds of muscle, charm, and questionable decision-making. I currently reside with Freedom Frenchie Rescue, where I’ve been informed that I am “a lot,” but in a good way.

I came here as a rescue plea from San Bernardino Animal Shelter after animal control found me “aggressively fighting a garbage can.” Now listen—was I aggressive? Or was I hungry and defending my right to snacks? History will decide. What I do know is that I was misunderstood, underfed, and ready for a comeback tour.

The Redemption Arc 

Since landing in rescue, I’ve been finding my groove. As the world turns, I’ve been becoming more me every day—more relaxed, more confident, and way more comfortable knowing I’m safe. Turns out when you’re not fighting garbage cans for survival, life gets pretty sweet. But I do go for the occasional mop and bucket, sometimes I just have to fuck shit up and laugh! I am a dog and y’all are humans you have bad days to! But hey no one ever gets hurt and I do not go after people and dogs.

I love my little Frenchie foster brother and I’m learning the ropes with my other foster siblings. The only thing I’m still side-eyeing is height ( they are super trained rotties) Tall dogs make me nervous. HOWEVER, I have learned that tall dogs are extremely useful when toys get stuck or treats are just out of reach. So we coexist peacefully. Mostly. I can eat next to them and everything is fine and sometimes I do think about curling up next his lady but I don’t think cheating is her thing.

The House Rules (and How I Feel About Them) 

Cats? Hard no…haha I tried so hard to get under that couch and it was not happening. I cat wasn’t even under there anymore and I was looking forever! Man they are quick!

I’m not good at hide-and-seek, the cat always wins, and frankly, it hurts my confidence. Chickens? Allegedly we have chickens, but I’ve never noticed them and would like that statement to stand.

I do best in a home without cats, but I’m cool with dogs when introductions are done right. Let me repeat myself INTRODUCTIONS ARE DONE RIGHT, 333 please! I’m a respectful dude once everyone understands the hierarchy (spoiler: I think it’s me, but I’m flexible).

My People 

I secretly love preteens and older kids ( not I’m not a weirdo we are just on the same brain waves) They’re fun, they understand my energy, and they don’t judge me for being a little extra. I’m a champion cuddler and a huge fan of snuggling in bed watching classic TV with my friend Gabby (teenager). If there’s a couch, a blanket, and a human nearby, I will find them.

At night, I sleep in my own bed next to my foster mom. She tucks me in every night, which I graciously accept. I won’t tell her that I prefer to fluff my own bed like an adult. Some traditions are sacred. The blanket on me is the icing on the cake!

Social Life & Celebrity Status 

I LOVE going out. I love meeting new people. I love taking pictures. I love attention. I am basically the guy at the party who knows everyone and somehow ends up in all the photos.

Want a dog who’s down for anything?
Going out? I’m in.
Staying home? I’m in.
Sharing food? I was born ready.

I am a social butterfly, a cuddle extraordinaire, and honestly? A great date.

Health Check: Strong Like Bull

When I first arrived, I had a urinary infection that caused blood to come out in a scary amount. No not in my urine it was after I urinated. Not my finest moment. The rescue got me on antibiotics, got me neutered, and—like the pros they are—called it: neutering fixed an underlying prostate issue. Everything cleared up quickly, and now I’m feeling fantastic. Healthy. Comfortable. Thriving, and peeing like an Olympian. Gold medal please!

The Bottom Line 

I’m full of love, chaos, loyalty, and heart. I’m the kind of dog who will be your ride-or-die, your couch buddy, your wingman, and your emotional support hype man. I’m an exotic low riding bully do your research!

I may have started this chapter throwing hands with a garbage can (reminder: food), but I’m ready to end it exactly where I belong—with people who get me.

Love,
Bronson 

I am neutered, vaccinated and microchipped, my adoption donation fee is $1100.00. You can apply for @freedomfrenchierescue.org and I am currently being fostered in Mesa, AZ.

    Hi. I’m Chomps. Yes… that Chomps.

I’m the complete small-bulldog package — five years old, currently weighing in at 38 pounds and proudly gaining (as I should). I came to Freedom Frenchie Rescue from an animal shelter in Los Angeles, and getting me to Arizona was quite the adventure. A transporter stepped up to adopt me on the rescue’s behalf while picking up other dogs, and despite some unnecessary shelter drama that doesn’t matter anymore, I made it safely and comfortably to Arizona. That’s the only part that counts.

Ball Is Life (and I Mean That Literally)

Let’s be clear about something important right away — ball is life for me. I am deeply obsessed. My favorite ball is a rubber one with grooves, and Mo has made sure I’m very well stocked. I love sunbathing more than just about anything, especially when I can lounge with two balls tucked under my neck and my chin resting peacefully on one like I’m living my best luxury bulldog life.

Because I love my ball so much, I can sometimes resource guard it if someone gets too close. Most dogs understand my warning, but a few don’t, which can lead to mishaps. The rescue is actively working with me on this, and I’m responding very well. When redirected, I stop growling quickly, but consistency is important. I’m learning that there are plenty of toys, no one is taking anything from me, and playing with other dogs can actually be even more fun. With time, trust, and follow-through, I continue to improve every day.

My “That Escalated Quickly” Medical Chapter

When I arrived at the rescue, I had a large mass above my tail, so surgery was scheduled to remove it and to neuter me at the same time. Everything seemed to go smoothly, and once surgery was finished, a volunteer picked me up to bring me back to Mo’s house. Then, completely out of nowhere, I started bleeding everywhere — it looked like a full-on murder scene in the car. Luckily, the volunteer was only about two miles away, turned around immediately, rushed me back to the vet, and carried me straight inside.

The vet staff jumped into action, and thankfully, the people waiting for their appointments were incredibly understanding. It turned out I hadn’t been bleeding during surgery or immediately afterward, but a blood vessel hadn’t been fully cauterized. I went into emergency surgery, had additional stitches and staples placed, and came through like a champ. I have since healed beautifully and am once again very active and very much myself.

Food, Trust, and My Inner Vacuum Cleaner

I absolutely love food, but I eat so fast that I have to use a slow feeder to prevent choking. It’s frustrating for me at times, but it keeps me safe. Everyone at the rescue is fed in their crate for safety, and I will resource guard my food in my crate if another dog hovers nearby. This is something we continue to work on as I build trust and confidence. I’m learning that food always comes, toys are always available, and love is guaranteed.

My current diet consists of Zignature Fish probiotic kibble mixed with Tucker’s raw salmon. I eat a cup and a half in the morning and a cup and a half in the afternoon, with several snacks in between. I take treats extremely gently from your hand, and I have a signature side-eye stare that I use while waiting for you to “accidentally” drop food — even when you’re not actually holding any.

Potty Training & Life Lessons

Potty training is still a work in progress. I used to pee on my crate mat consistently, so the rescue removed it altogether. Yes, it’s unfair. Yes, it’s tough love. But it works. Since removing the mat, I haven’t had any accidents in my crate, and we’re continuing to reinforce good habits every day.

Teeth? Never Heard of Her.

Let’s talk about my teeth — or lack thereof. I don’t have many, especially on the bottom. I’ve got my canine, although even that one isn’t fully intact. Despite this, I do just fine and have no trouble eating or enjoying treats. As you can tell from my photos, my smile is more gums than teeth, and it only adds to my charm.

Spa Life, Snorts & Bulldoggery

I don’t mind baths at all. I’ll just sit there and soak it in like a polite little bulldog gentleman. My first bath required four full washes because I was extremely dirty, but who’s counting? My nose stays crusty no matter how much it’s cleaned or moisturized with cocoa butter, but that’s Arizona desert life for you.

I’m very vocal, but not in a barking or whining way. I communicate through snorts, snuffles, and bulldog chatter. If you could speak snort, we’d have full conversations. My farts are loud, frequent, and unapologetic, and my naps are long and luxurious.

About BOAS Surgery

Yes, I could benefit from BOAS surgery, but it is not medically necessary at this time. It does not currently affect my quality of life, and given my previous difficulty healing, the rescue and vet have decided not to take that risk. I live in Arizona, my outdoor time is carefully managed, and I am never allowed to play in the heat. Now that I’m fully healed, the focus is on letting me enjoy life safely as I am.

My Ideal Home

I’m looking for a home that understands bulldogs and is willing to provide structure, consistency, and continued guidance with toys and feeding routines. I need someone who appreciates snorts, naps, noisy farts, and a dog with a big personality packed into a compact body. In return, I offer endless laughs, loyal companionship, gentle treat-taking, and sun-drenched naps by your side.

About Friends, Cuddles & Learning How to Be Home

If you’re hoping I’ll instantly be best friends with your dog or jump right into cuddle mode, that can absolutely happen — but it will take time. I’m still learning about life and what it means to live in a real home. Everything is new to me: the routines, the people, the expectations, and the love. Please don’t come into adoption with super high expectations of me right away.

And honestly, don’t have unrealistic expectations of any rescue dog coming into your home. We don’t know you yet. We don’t know your dogs. Trust has to be built, not forced. I need time to understand what kind of love you’re offering and to feel safe enough to accept it fully. When that happens — and it will — the friendships, cuddles, and connection grow naturally and mean so much more.

Final Words from Me

I’ve been through a lot, and I’ve come out stronger, happier, and ready for my forever home. If you’ve got room in your heart — and maybe space on your Amazon list for grooved rubber balls — I might just be your guy.

Love,

Chomps

         Meet Wagnor -  Duke of Velcro  Cuddle Conqueror 

Greetings, traveler. I am Waggoner. Level 3 yrs Good Boy. Strength: Medium. Charisma: Unreasonably High. Self-awareness: Limited. I am approximately 25 pounds of teenage boy energy, questionable choices, big feelings, and an intense desire to impress women. I am what experts call a Lover Boy™, but in a slightly awkward, dorky, “did that work?” kind of way.

Attachment Style: Velcro
I follow my human everywhere like it’s my assigned quest. If you stand up, I stand up. If you sit down, I sit down. If you breathe… I’m already there. I take my job as Personal Shadow very seriously and would prefer to be involved in all household activities at all times.

Confidence Building Arc
Sometimes I’m unsure about the world because life didn’t always make sense to me, but every single day I gain more bravery and more personality. The more I trust you, the weirder I get — which is actually my best feature. When I’m excited, I jump straight up like I’m powered by invisible pogo sticks. We’re working on calm. We are not good at calm. But we are excellent at enthusiasm.

Party System Required (Dog Social Life)
I REQUIRE a dog sibling. Capital letters. Mandatory quest item. I am submissive, gentle, and I don’t resource guard. I share toys, space, snacks, and emotional support freely. Other dogs make me feel safe, brave, and slightly cooler than I actually am. Currently best friends with a pug and even tolerated by a very picky Frenchton, which basically means I have excellent references.

Special Skills & Hobbies
Toy redistribution engineer. Professional shadow. Snack enthusiast. Couch warmer. Interior decorator. Practitioner of seductive eye contact that mostly just looks confused. I am extremely food motivated, which means I am smart, trainable, and willing to sell my soul for treats. I am accepting resumes for a Full-Time Cuddle Partner and Co-Applicant for Couch Potato Life.

Potty Training: The Training Arc
I’m doing pretty dang good. I’ve only had a few daytime accidents, mostly because I don’t always know how to tell you I need to go out yet, so my humans keep me on a schedule. At night I’ve had some crate accidents even after going outside. Could be anxiety. Could be bladder strength. Could be teenage rebellion. I currently wear a belly band at night like a very fashionable gentleman. Once I’m fully healed and out of my donut, we’re starting dog door training. I’m food motivated, so success is inevitable.

Medical Glow-Up (Patch Notes)
I had entropion surgery on both of my eyes and healed beautifully. My bite wound on my leg also looks great. Vision restored. Glow-up activated. I feel good, I see clearly, and I’m ready to show off my new and improved face to the ladies.

My Dream Campaign
I’m looking for a home with a dog sibling, structure, patience, and a whole lot of love. I’m not aggressive. I don’t guard. I’m soft, sweet, gentle, and just a slightly dorky teenage boy in a squishy dog body who wants stability, safety, and a forever party system. Once I know I’m safe, I will love you with my entire squishy face and follow you everywhere for the rest of your life (especially to the kitchen).

         Meet Wrigley- Heartbroken Return (read my profile)

 My Love Story Began on the Freeway Be mine? I’m Leroy Wrigley, two years old, a bulldog with a big heart, big feelings, and a love story that didn’t start out easy. I came from the 5 Freeway and the Orange County Shelter, where I was labeled “not adoptable” because no one could safely touch me. Not a single Cupid could get close. Freedom Frenchie Rescue stepped in anyway, sending a full rescue team to scoop my dramatic bulldog booty, get me safely to San Diego, and then all the way to Arizona, where my real transformation began. 

Learning to Trust (and Fall in Love) 

When I arrived at Mo’s house, I was finally given the time and space to decompress. I had my own cozy area, soft blankets, gentle voices, and regular meals. I learned what “potty outside” meant, started to feel safe, and slowly realized that humans weren’t as scary as I once believed. The “don’t touch me” Grinch in me softened, and little by little, love started to replace fear. I was adotped 2 weeks ago and now I am being returned.. I smell fear in people Its better to ignore me until you figure me out. Yea I know its the opposite but when you ignore me I want more love and I listen way better to get that! 333 rule needs to be applied with me I have to have time to decompress and transition. I do not live in this fast-paced world humans do. When I started at Mo’s she did 555. 

My Signature Wobble & Ongoing Care

 I have a very distinctive walk—one I proudly call my signature wobble. Like many English Bulldogs, I have hip dysplasia, but mine is a little extra spicy. My hip sockets didn’t form correctly, which gives me a hip-hoppin’, wiggly strut that turns heads wherever I go. Freedom Frenchie Rescue took new X-rays and confirmed that I’ll need physical therapy in my future, along with good supplements and maintaining a healthy weight. I came in underweight at first, but with the right meds, care, and love, I’m doing really well. 

A Bulldog Personality with a Soft Center Personality-wise, I am a bulldog through and through. I’m demanding, opinionated, dramatic when things don’t go my way, and honestly very funny. Once I decide you’re my person, my loyalty runs deep. In the beginning, I was very unsure about being touched and did try to bite—fear talking, not aggression. Sometimes when I’m picked up, I’ll still grumble like an old man being woken from a nap, but I have never actually hurt anyone. Now, I seek out affection, rest my big head in your lap, roll over for belly rubs, and absolutely melt when you scratch the side of my neck. 

House-Trained, Healed, and Still Growing I’m pretty much potty trained, eat like a champion, and since my neuter, I’ve stopped trying to decorate the house with leg lifts. I’m proud to report zero poop accidents. I can be around other dogs as long as they mostly ignore me, which suits me just fine. With time, trust, and patience, I could absolutely have a dog friend in the future. My Perfect Valentine Home I’m looking for someone who understands sweet-but-spicy bulldogs, keeps snacks nearby, and believes in slow trust-building with a big heart. I love scratches everywhere except my hips for now, and in return, I promise to bring goofy charm, wobbly joy, and unwavering loyalty into your life. 

All I’m Missing Is You 

I’m Leroy Wrigley—a fighter, a lover, a wiggle-walker, and a redeemed freeway boy. I’m finally ready to be warm, safe, and adored. Maybe on your couch, maybe by your side, but definitely in your heart. 

PS I am vaccinated, microchipped and neutered, currently I am being fostered in Mesa, AZ. My adoption donation fee is $1050.00 and you can check out how to adopt me at freedomfrenchierescue.org and apply for there too!

Only serious inquiries for Wrigley and do not ask us if he will get along with your dog we do not know your dog. Wrigley is a loner he needs to be left a lone he is happy that way. He does not need a cuddle buddy or another friend yes that would be nice but that is in his future not currently. Although he does like cats we found out! Obviously he does great at Mo's but she has zero fear of him or any dog. She has learned his triggers and what his trigger are with her might not be what they are with you. That is being said because the last two families had different triggers then what Mo has seen. We will not do a foster to adopt him for anymore because he has been returned twice and now has a bite record. If you are serious about him apply and we will send you his notes. Once again it may be different in your home. Adopter must be able to show they have signed him up for training. 

*Please Note: All learning and guidance must continue in their new home. A dog’s behavior can change with a new environment and energy, and every family’s dynamic is different. What works or is allowed in one foster home may not be the same in yours, so consistency, patience, and continued training are key to their success.

       Yo Leo here- Rescue Plea Graduate and Polite Manners

My Past

Hi. I’m Leo. I’m 3½ years old and I came in as a rescue plea. That part sounds dramatic, but honestly? I think I used to belong to someone. I know commands. I understand house rules. I don’t act like a dog who’s never lived inside before.

When I first got here, I was scared. Of everything. New people, new sounds, new dogs. It was a lot. But once I realized I was safe, I started relaxing… and that’s when the real me showed up.

My Personality

I’m what you’d call a well-rounded bulldog gentleman. I play great with other dogs. I love tug-of-war. I’ll chase the ball like it’s my job. And sometimes? I’ll just grab a ball and entertain myself because I can. Independent king behavior.

My absolute favorite game is keep-away. I grab something important, trot off proudly, and make everyone work for it. It’s strategic. It’s athletic. It’s art.

I’m gentle with my people. If you bend down, I’ll give you kisses. I’m not constantly jumping in your face, and I’m not clingy. I just like being near you. Existing in the same space. Supervising.

I could reach the counters if I wanted to. I’m tall enough. But I don’t. Because I have manners.

The couch? Yes. That’s mine now, it’s a complete take over! I’m a big guy what do you expect!

Smart, Goofy & Full of Character

I have that classic bulldog face — expressive, a little dorky, always plotting something fun. But I’m actually pretty smart. I understand routines. I listen. I adjust.

I used to jump on humans sometimes, but since being neutered I’ve really toned that down. I don’t jump on dogs. I play appropriately. I bring fun energy without being chaos.

Health & My Best Life

Good news — I have no medical issues. I’m healthy. I’m thriving. I’m fully embracing this “living my best life” era. I love when it’s food time and I enjoy all the snacks my foster dad gives me especially the cheese and little peanut butter cups. Literally I can lick at those until the days ends! My potty training is great I know the doggy door and I just fit!! 

I’m not over-the-top. I’m not overwhelming. I’m just a genuinely sweet, fun-loving bulldog who knows how to play hard and lounge harder.

All I need now is someone who looks at me — couch hog tendencies and all — and says, “That’s my boy.” 

Foster Pupdate:

Leo is such a cool dude. Seriously. The kind of dog that just walks into a room and somehow fits right in.

He absolutely loves the other bullies in my house — Darla and Harvey have been incredible foster siblings to him. They’ve shown him the ropes, and he’s soaking it all up like a pro. He plays respectfully, reads their cues, and genuinely enjoys having dog friends around.

I’ve fostered English Bulldogs before, and I can honestly say Leo is by far one of the easiest, most gentle guys I’ve come across — second only to sweet Chomps. He has that classic bulldog energy… yes, he can be a bit of a bull in a china shop at times — but somehow he does it with manners and grace. It’s impressive, really.

He’s affectionate without being overwhelming, playful without being chaotic, and just has that steady, good-boy presence that makes him such an easy addition to the pack.

Leo is the kind of dog that would thrive in a home that appreciates a laid-back, loving bulldog with just enough goofy charm to keep things interesting. We’re pretty obsessed with him over here. 

Leo is vaccinated, neutered and microchipped; his adoption donation fee is $1100.00. you can apply for Leo at freedomfrenchierescue.org and he is being fostered in Scottsdale, AZ.

         Pablo, Pablito, Pablo the Potato, Wheels of Steel-Happiness is a Choice

Hi. I’m Pablo. I’m 2 years old, and I’m very happy to be alive. I was surrendered because my old family didn’t have the time to care for me anymore. No hard feelings — life happens. What matters is I’m safe now, and I wake up every single day excited about it. My medical records say I have two calcified discs that haven’t ruptured and some wedged vertebrae. Surprise, surprise… I’m a French Bulldog. We’re built a little different. The most important thing? I’m not in pain. I’m just me — happy, wiggly, and ready for whatever’s next.

Personality: Pure Joy in a Compact Body

If you’re looking for easy-going with a splash of personality, that’s me. I bunny hop up to give kisses. I run like my legs work perfectly (because in my mind, they do). I follow my pack everywhere like it’s my full-time job. Nothing stops me. I love being part of the group, whether that’s lounging near you, cruising in my wheels, or supervising the backyard like a tiny manager. I love a good bone to chew, mealtime is my absolute favorite event of the day, and I’m always smiling about something. Sometimes I get excited and let out a little scream — we’re working on that — but honestly, I just have big feelings about life. During diaper changes I may perform a professional-level alligator roll, and I’m not a fan of having my feet wrapped, but I promise I will make up for it with kisses.

Mobility & Medical

I can stand and take a couple of steps — about two solid ones — and I do favor my right hind leg. But guess what? I learned to use my wheelchair in about half a second. I don’t see it as a big deal. It just means I move a little differently. I’m stable, comfortable, and I feel good. I’ll need a family who keeps me safe from jumping, keeps me at a healthy weight, and helps protect my spine long term. But I don’t need pity. I just need partnership. I start my Chiro appointments in a few weeks and I’m so excited to get back up and go! FFR has gotten dogs back up, so I have some high hopes! You just have to believe!

Training & Manners

I know some important things like “come,” “stop,” and “sit” (we’re all still negotiating what that looks like). I take treats nicely because I’m a gentleman. I absolutely thrive with other dogs and love being part of a pack. I don’t love it when a new dog rushes right into my face — I prefer polite introductions with proper butt sniffing etiquette. Once we’ve established the rules, I’m all in. I’ll follow my dog friends everywhere like we’re in a little squad.

The Home I’m Looking For

I’m looking for a loving home that sees how capable I am. I want people who are calm, steady, and ready to laugh with me. A home with other friendly dogs would make me very happy, but mostly I just want to belong. I’m easy-going, affectionate, and always ready to be part of whatever is happening. I don’t wake up thinking about what I can’t do. I wake up thinking about breakfast, friends, and kisses.

Final thought

I’m Pablo. I’m joyful. I’m resilient. I’m gentle and goofy and completely in love with life. If you’re ready for a little shadow who will follow you everywhere, zoom beside you in my wheels, and remind you daily that happiness is a choice, I think we’d be perfect together.

 Call me whatever just call me home!

          Hi. I’m Rocket - President of The He-Man Woman Haters Club. Deaf…huh? Did you say something? No its not selective hearing.

And before you ask — yes, I know I’m handsome. 1-ish years old (maybe one and a half… I’m mysterious like that) | Completely Deaf | Fully Awesome

I was surrendered to this rescue thing at a dog park meetup, and instead of being all shy and weird about it, I ran straight into the group like, “Alright fellas, what are we playin’?” Within minutes I was having the time of my life. New dogs? Great. Big dogs? Great. Tiny dogs? Also great. I don’t discriminate. I just like to party.

I may weigh over 35 pounds, but in my heart I am approximately five pounds and airborne.

I Don’t Hear You… But I See Everything

Now here’s the thing — I’m completely deaf.

Which sounds dramatic, but honestly? It hasn’t slowed me down one bit. I follow hand signals, I watch faces, I read body language like it’s my full-time job. You wave, I look. You point, I move. You smile, I’m already in your lap.

Some dogs hear. I observe. It’s a talent.

Gentleman with Good Bathroom Manners

Let’s get something straight — I came to foster care already potty trained. That’s right. I go to the door when I need to go out like a civilized young man. I eat well. I sleep well. I adjusted to my foster home like I’ve lived there my whole life.

I’m not here to cause trouble. I’m here to be impressive.

Social Butterfly (But Make It Bulldog)

I love other dogs. I mean really love them. If I see a dog on a walk, I assume we are best friends. Immediately.

Sometimes I get a little enthusiastic about it. I can’t hear if another dog says, “Hey buddy, back it up,” so my foster mom is pretty good about giving me space if a dog looks less than thrilled with my charm.

I’m strong, too. Built like a bowling ball with confidence. We learned very quickly that I do best in a harness because when I’m ready to go, I am ready.

That One Day…

Okay. Fine. On my first day in foster care, I may have been a little… overexcited. There was some enthusiastic humping. I was adjusting. There were new dogs. Big feelings were involved and I came in my last owners car to the dog park and left in a different car. Where the F am I? Well now I am fully adjusted and living my best life with Cutie my foster sister. She has taught me so much and so has all the other dogs in the home.

But then I got neutered, and let me tell you — I have been much more gentlemanly ever since. I’m learning. I’m improving. I’m growing as a person. I may be the president of the He-man club but I am so in love with Cutie!

Cuddler-in-Chief

For a guy with this much energy, I sure do love a couch.

I love chew toys. Bam Bones are my jam. Treat time? Don’t even get me started. But if you sit down and pat your lap, I will launch myself into it and settle in like I pay the mortgage.

My favorite thing in the whole world is curling up next to my foster family and my dog friends and pretending I’m just a tiny little peanut.

I do fine in a crate, but I prefer the VIP section of the couch.

Medically Magnificent (Obviously)

Medically speaking, I’m pretty sound. Especially for a white Frenchie, which is honestly impressive if you know anything about us. I don’t really have allergies — at least not yet. But you know how Frenchies are… we age, we breathe, we exist dramatically. So far though? I’m doing great.

Now yes, I’m deaf. We’ve covered that. And my eyesight? Pretty good overall. I do have a little bit of visual quirkiness going on — but let’s be honest, any dog with light eyes is probably going to have some sensitivity. That’s just Frenchie common sense.

Does it stop me? Not even a little.

I can still see you. I can still see snacks. And I can definitely still see Cutie.

So don’t worry about me. I’m out here thriving.

What I’m Looking For

I’d really like a home with another dog. Someone confident. Someone who can show me the ropes when things are new. I’m brave, but sometimes it’s nice to have a buddy who hears what’s going on.

I promise I’m not fragile. I’m not “special needs” in a dramatic way. I’m just Rocket. I do things my way. I learn with my eyes, smell and vibrations. I love with my whole chest.

So if you’re looking for a fun, slightly mischievous, well-mannered boy who plays hard, cuddles harder, and doesn’t let anything hold him back…

Rocket is neutered, microchipped, and vaccinated. His adoption donation fee is $1100.00 and you can apply for him at freedomfrenchierescue.org. Rocket is currently being fostered in Glendale, AZ.
