Greta is a beautiful, sweet 3 year old, weighing in at 27-pounds of pure Frenchie love.
This girl adores being the center of attenion, so if another dog is trying to steal her show, don't be surprised if she gracefully (but firmly) booty-bumps them out of HER picture! No regrets! Despite her very cuddly side, and potato-esque figure, Greta is NOT just a lounge around kind of pup. She has plenty of energy and balances quality snuggle time with raiding the toy box, playing tug with her humans, and wrestling with her other canine foster friends.
While Greta has been very social with other sweet small dogs, including other frenchies, and just about every person she meets, she's NOT a fan of bigger breeds or dominent doggos. Her house manners are impeccable (if she does say so herself), so even though she's crate trained she generally has free rein of the downstairs when her foster fam has to head out for a little while.
Despite her very strong opinions about the cold, Greta musters her courage like she's about to do a polar plunge when it's time to go potty, followed by a warp speed return that would make a cheetah jealous.
When the weather isnt trying to turn her into a frozen frenchie, she loves to strut her stuff on neighborhood walks, and happily rides along anywhere her humans go. Greta walks beautifully on leash which makes her a delight to take on strolls. (Due to her squishy face, warm temps need to be carefully watched as she easily overheats).
Greta rarely barks unless she's riled up from playing. When it's time for bed she's happiest snoring under the covers, preferably snuggled as close as she can possibly get to her human...even if that sometimes means shoving them off the side of the bed. Oops.
Like most Frenchies, Greta comes with a few breed quirks. She has typical GI and skin sensitivities, well managed on a high quality diet. She also previously had a small lump on her side removed and biopsied. It was low-grade (1) mast cell but was removed with excellent margins. This is the most common and is usually completely cured with surgery. The vet was very pleased with the outcome.
Because Frenchies can require specialized care, we're only seeking an adopter with frenchie breed experience who understands their unique (but totally worth-it) medical challenges. Deep pockets and a vet who happens to be your bestie wouldn't hurt with this breed. (not kidding). While Greta has liked everyone she has met so far, small kids would not be ideal since she likes to give love nips when she's excited.
Adoption Fee: $950 - includes spay surgery, lumpectomy and biopsy, microchip, vaccinations, and current flea/tick/heartworm prevention.
