Male Chocolate/Tan Desexed French Bulldog – 9.5kg
Microchip Number: #900113001880294
DOB: 06/08/2019
RE108835

Small French boy looking for his furever home……
And a furever family to call his own….
Mogwai is an absolute delight…
He’s the bestest boy who always does everything right…

He was used to breed with and then found himself facing the end of his life…
Because he had a damaged infected hematoma cauliflowered ear from breeding dog fights…
And his horrendous breathing….
Which sounded like a steam train huffing, choking and heaving…
Thankfully Mogwai made his way into Pug Rescue care and with over 5 weeks of weekly vet appointments and weekly antibiotic ear gel being applied into his previously extremely inflamed and puffed up with scar tissue and infected ear that couldn’t be seen down….
The inflammation and infection subsided and Dr Sharon at Knox Vet could see his ear drum was intact making us all smile instead of frown…

Tackling Mogwai’s severe BOAS “Brachycephalic Obstructive Airway Syndrome” was next on our list of things to do…
Dr Ricky of Geelong Animal Referral Services performed BOAS surgery including tonsillectomy and a folded flap palatoplasty to gift Mogwai a clearer airway to breathe through…
Mogwai reports that he was also desexed too..
Over two weeks of crate rest, hand feeding and meds and Mogwai’s breathing is now wonderful with no more horrible sounds coming from him whoo hoo ..

Mogwai’s manners are perfect and he will do everything that he is asked to do including coming when asked, going outside, leaving, going to his crate and of course he will sit….
He will spend hours racing around playing chasey, wrestling with his frenchie and mates and toys are a big hit….
Pottering around he just loves to be one of the family..
And will curl up in a bed or on the couch happily…
He gets excited about walkies and does very well taking in new sights and sounds…
Being an ex breeder he can at times still be a bit unsure….
But with a confident doggy friend by his side he will continue to grow in confidence we are sure….

So if you are looking for a basically perfect small French boy…
To join your family and bring you much joy…
And have a Frenchie girlfriend or sister for him…
Please send an adoption enquiry for Mogwai in….
