FBFC Rescue

As the popularity of French Bulldogs increases in Canada, so too does the number of French Bulldogs in need.

If you know of a dog in need or wish to volunteer, please see our rescue contact page here.

Above all, we need caring individuals and families to open their homes and hearts to give our ‘rescues’ the love and security that comes from having a family of their own.

Our Dogs

Photo of Frankie

Available for Adoption

Adoption Fee: $750.00

Frankie

Frankie is a 3-5 year old French Bulldog with a big heart and even bigger feelings. He’s affectionate, goofy, and deeply curious. He loves cuddling, sitting on laps, people-watching from the window, and following his humans everywhere.

Frankie enjoys walks (especially on quiet roads), playing tag, and is learning how to play fetch. Frankie is also working through some behavioural challenges, including separation and situational anxieties (vet visits, loud noises, overexcitement at doors/gates) and can be reactive towards certain dogs. He is coming along nicely but ongoing training, consistency and management will be needed.

Frankie needs a calm, low stimulation home with someone home most of the time. Good general dog knowledge and past experience with anxious or reactive dogs is beneficial. With patience and love, Frankie will reward you with deep connection, endless snuggles, and a truly special bond.

Location: Central ON (Toronto area)

Health / Behaviour

Healthy/ separation and situational anxieties.

Compatibility: People

Great with people. No young children.

Compatibility: Dogs

Best suited as only dog.

Compatibility: Cats

Not cat tested.

Requirements

Frankie needs an understanding, calm, dog knowledgeable owner that is a good leader and can help him develop positive associations and good coping strategies when he feels anxious or fearful. Frankie will do well in a lower energy, quiet environment.

Available for Adoption or Foster

Levi

Meet Levi, a sweet, playful companion looking for his forever home! Levi is an affectionate, fun-loving 8-year-old. From the moment he arrived, Levi has shown us nothing but love, resilience, and an incredible zest for life. Originally thought to have skin issues caused by allergies, additional testing led to a diagnosis of Cushing’s Disease. Levi needs daily medication, routine check ups and blood work to monitor his condition. He has responded well to treatment and is living a happy, active life. Levi has some food sensitivities, easily managed by diet. We suspect he may have a bit of mild arthritis, but it certainly doesn’t slow him down! This charming boy adores his foster mom, enjoys carrying toys around the house, and loves his daily walks. He gets along nicely with other dogs, though he would do best in a home without cats. If you’re looking for a sweet, mature, loyal, joyful companion who will fill your home with love and cuddles, Levi may be your perfect match!

Levi’s current foster provider is only able to provide temporary care so Levi will also need a new foster provider soon. Foster and adoption application links are included.

Charlotte is a loving, sweet, adorable little girl with a perfect temperament. She is 8 years old and weighs a very portable 16 lbs. Unfortunately, as the result of IVDD and disc rupture, Charlotte is paraplegic. This, however, does not slow her down or diminish her zest for life in the slightest. She is pain free, loves to cuddle, enjoys her meals and treats, thrives on the company of people and pets and scoots around the house without a hitch. Charlotte has a cart for outdoor walks and took to her wheels like a pro the day her cart arrived. Charlotte will need a family that is familiar and comfortable with the care requirements of a paraplegic dog. Breed familiarity and IVDD knowledge is helpful. Charlotte has mild allergies, controlled by diet and medication when needed. She needs regular bladder expression and a consistent care routine, but looking after Charlotte is not difficult or any more time consuming than that of any dog. She is great with all people and pets and is a total delight!

Benny is a happy and playful 4 year old boy who is looking for his forever home. His favourite things to do are go on walks, play, and get cuddles. He is a smart boy and knows a list of commands such as sit, stay, lay down, and off. Benny is dog reactive and selective with people but has had positive experiences with both when properly introduced. He will need a dog experienced owner who is willing to provide structure and guidance. He is best suited in a calm, low activity home as an only dog with no young children.
