We didn't find Moses among the bulrushes in a basket, but he did
manage to float on down to the FBVillage.
And he is a charmer! This chubby little dog's big brown
eyes will melt your heart as they have already melted the hearts
of the Village volunteers.
Moses first landed
in the lap of Dr. Lori Hunt, a terrific veterinarian with a
passion for Frenchies. Moses has been Dr. Hunt's client
all of his life, and when his owners could no longer manage his
deteriorating health or the accompanying veterinary bills, they
turned their beloved pet over to her. Moses has been
having epileptic seizures about once a month, and requires
careful monitoring of his environment, his nutritional
requirements, and his medication to keep his condition from
becoming worse.
Despite his health
woes, our cherubic boy is a happy, friendly fellow. Moses
is a lover: he loves other dogs, he loves people, he loves cats,
he loves kids, and most of all…he looooooooooooves his dinner!
There's no question that this little guy is packing a few extra
pounds.
Moses is now
bunking with an FBV volunteer in New York and five
resident Frenchies. He is well and happy and enjoying life with
his foster siblings. Moses is house trained, crate trained
and an all around fine Frenchie, full of fun and full of
himself. Sometimes his medications throw his body functions off,
but both he and his foster mom are learning to cope with all
that life chosen to throw at Moses.
Moses will
continue to need veterinary care during his foster care as we
struggle to reach the optimum level of medication to control his
seizures. Like almost every other French Bulldog that
comes into our care, Moses also requires the French Bulldog
"basics": a bed, collar and leash, and a few toys to call his
own. Our adoption fees don't begin to cover the costs. We
rely on your generosity to help support the needs of rescue dogs
like Moses.
