Poncho

Poncho is a first class frenchie. He is incredibly smart and talented. He could have been a circus dog in his past life. He knows all the commands and is eager to learn more.Poncho loves car rides and meeting new people. He is very friendly to my family and friends. He is not scared of new situations and serves as my watchdog and protector. I am happy to have Poncho in my life and thankful for the french bulldog rescue for bringing him to me.

Bonnie & Angus

We adopted both Bonnie (or BB as we call her) and Angus, formally Titan, separately from CFBR. They quickly became the best of friends (though BB will forever remain the alpha dog...she deserves it after her hard life) and the loves of our life! They enjoy spending their days romping and playing in their yard and cuddling on the couch with their people. We try to take them with us wherever we can and they have become fixtures around our small town as well as mascots at our 10 year old's football games an practices. Words can not express how much joy our little clowns bring to our lives and we will be forever grateful that we were chosen to give them their forever home.

Coco

Coco (formerly Dottie) has been a joy ever since she first bounded through our door with Mary. She is the most affectionate, loving pup, and all of our friends and family have fallen in love with her. She makes us laugh every day, and she is happiest when snuggling with both of us on the couch. We are so proud of our baby girl and cannot imagine life without her now! Mary, Paula, and everyone at CFBR--thank you so much for all that you do and for matching us with our dream Frenchie. Happy Holidays! --Bonnie, Don, and Co

Lady B

We are the Mauriello Family! Recently we adopted the final touch to our little family! Her name is Lady Beatrice. A wonderful, energetic, loving, sweet, loyal, little Pug. She's a pup with purpose and has made mine and my daughters life so much more fun. My husband is deployed in Iraq and our other dog Kiki needed a sister. Lady B has gone above and beyond!! The perfect balance of joy and challenge for day to day life. She's been such a blessing to our family and we can't thank the Chicago French Bulldog Rescue enough! Every dog deserves a second chance...

Mr. Dudley

He's had a few different names but now he has found his forever name and his forever home! (Mr./Monsieur) Dudley (aka Goodsen aka Mr T aka #338) fits here like a glove. Having lost 2 of our dogs in less than a year and one of them being the play toy for the others, we just knew we had to get another young, playful dog for the household. Mr. Dudley has been the perfect addition to our home and we are back to being complete. Rescuing a guy who lived his life in a cage at a puppy mill has been so rewarding already. He just appreciates everything and is so loving and cuddly and full of inquisitiveness. Having two Moms to spoil him doesn't hurt, either! Dudley is as comical as any other Frenchie and maybe a little more. His clumsiness allows for some additional laughter when he misses a step or crashes into a wall while running with the other dogs. We think he'll continue to improve with his coordination. His foster Mom, Carla, has done an incredible job with him already and we are grateful that we have been chosen to continue on with him in his new forever home. He can't wait to see everyone at the next meet-up! Thank You CFBR for all the good that you do! We are so happy to be affiliated with such a great organization.

Moujik

My Thanks to the Chicago French Bulldog Rescue
I adopted Moujik, formerly known as Marley, on May 16th. He is now 8 months old. I have always loved the name Moujik, and for me, a French Bulldog needs a French name! In French slang Moujik means “guy” and how perfect for this little boy. Every Frenchie owned by the fashion designer Yves Saint Laurent was named Moujik, and Moujik 2 was the subject of the final portrait painted by Andy Warhol; the only dog ever immortalized by this famous pop artist.He is a smart and affectionate dog with typical high energy. He is so agile he can run fast and leap into the air like a gazelle! Being a typical Frenchie, he is willful and not without several “brat attacks” each day. In spite of his history of abuse and neglect, within the past month he is now thriving. Training is going well and he loves his new home and neighborhood. He walks up to total strangers, sits down, and waits to be petted; he also enjoys playing with other pooches. Every day he visits his friends at the flower shop next door and sits patiently waiting for a treat. When I take him out at 6 am, while most people are still asleep and before he goes potty, he rushes to the door of the flower shop for a treat.He is a total delight and already loved by many. He will certainly grow up to be a great Frenchie. I am so happy I rescued him.Moujik is pictured with his new best friend Christine, who owns the flower shop next door.

Cassie

Cassie is doing wonderfully. She is learning that she should go by the door if she needs to go out. She is doing her business outside more oftern and she is excited when we come home. She loves to lay on the couch next to me and be petted. She isso sweet. She and tiger are getting on well. They like to go walking outside together. Thanks for helping our Cassie,Pam

Sophie

Sophie (formerly Biscuit) is our "pretty little girl", with such a wonderful temperament. We cannot imagine our life without her. I also wantto thank you for matching us with Sophie, you did a wonderful job! Our lifestyle and personality work well with the little Soph.Samirah

Sophie

Sophie is 4 1/2 years old and has lived her life as a princess and would benefit dearly with a forever home that has french bulldog experience. She knows how to get away with things by using her cuteness to her advantage! Her first owner passed from cancer and was sold to a second owner who only had her 6 months before realizing that as cute as Sophie is - she is a little spitfire and due to not ever being socialized with other dogs- can be a handful on walks when approaching other dogs- especially for an elderly person.

Faith

Faith is a 2 year old young spirited frenchie girl who was rescued from life in a puppy mill, she was born with no knee caps in her rear legs and yet, they had her in a small cage pumping out litters of puppies for them. When she came into our rescue she had sores on her legs from laying in such a small wire cage and no chance to develop muscles. Since she has been in our care- her sores have heeled, she has gotten stronger and learnt how to walk and run without the ability to bend her back legs. This is how life will be for Faith but she does not let that slow her down.

Hank

Hank is one handsome frenchie boy who is looking for a home that will give him lots of love. He is starting to stand a little and using his rear legs from time to time and may walk one day but he loves his wheelchair too. Hank came into rescue because his owner could not afford therapy for him- Hank woke up one day and was unable to walk.
