5km swim in 5 days · 26 August 2024

Back in July 2019 a group of Frenchie obsessed friends came together and chose to make a difference to the French bulldogs that today we see being abused and overbred so much. We want to bring awareness to the wider public of some of the issues that are common to the breed, that they need to be aware of before taking on a puppy or a rescue dog. There are so many puppies flooding the market now and people are sadly purchasing them without any research or knowledge of the breed. The coronavirus was somewhat of a challenge for us as for a period of time everyone wanted a dog during the lockdowns. Since the spring of 2021 we have seen a huge influx of Frenchies being surrendered to us. In recent times we have seen 8 dogs handed over to our rescue in one day! Rescue dogs are not the easiest but they can bring so much joy and love to you and your family. In rescue we’ve had the opportunity to meet many dogs, but meeting them sometimes at the lowest point of their lives. We’ve opened our hearts and homes to these dogs and we have to say we have been totally blown away by how they’ve changed and become very loving and trusting dogs. We hope you find our rescue as open, honest and trusting as we are. We look forward to working with you in the future in whatever capacity you are able to support us with. Many thanks form all at Frenchie & Friends Foundation, where we have built a rescue on foundations of the love for the breed.
