My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Please visit leiashope.org for our adoption process.
Location: Decatur, IL

Frenchie is a former breeder dog, that spent years having litter after litter for the profit of her master! She came to us pregnant and has had her last litter. It is time to focus on Frenchie and give her the life she deserves!

Frenchie is a sweet and low key lady. She loves to be told what a good girl she is. Her little tail just wags and she will run to you for pets! Frenchie also LOVES food and gets very excited for dinner time. She seems to not have a stop button, so it is her parents responsibility that she eats an appropriate amount of high quality food.

Frenchie enjoys sitting in her person's lap, snoozing in a dog bed, or sunbathing! She sometimes plays with toys, but she does like chewies.

Pearl is missing an eye and she cannot see out of her right side.It does not bother her, and just needs to be wiped daily. She probably would do best in a home without fast moving children. She also seems to struggle with going down steps. Foster mom has a ramp she uses. Her family may need to pick her up if there are steps to the yard.

Frenchie is a good little girl and only weighs about 11 lbs. She would be perfect for a family looking for a lap pet and cuddle companion!

Frenchie's adoption is $375. She is spayed, microchipped, current on vaccines, received a dental and on monthly flea and heart worm prevention. Visit leiashope.org for next steps!

PLEASE NOTE: We are a volunteer ran rescue with full time jobs. Please allow 7-10 days for application processing.

All of our dogs are in foster homes and a meet and greet is done ONLY after an approved application.

We do adopt out of the area. However, we do not ship or provide transportation. You must come to the location of the dog to meet and adopt. NO EXCEPTION. All family members and dogs must be present at the meet.

Dogs are a commitment for THEIR lifetime. For puppies this could be 15 years. If YOU cannot commit to the lifetime of the DOG, please do not apply. Puppies under 9 months must go to a home where there is someone home frequently (works from home or a partner is home), can adequately socialize and train the puppy, and can keep up with puppy energy!
