Two litters of six, another of five. Boom, boom, boom. One week after the other.
His wife perused the garage full of puppies, “Did you think this through?”
She was right. He hadn’t. After pondering her question, he realized how little understanding he possessed as a puppy breeder. He loved French Bulldogs and was aware of their popularity, but those aren’t the necessary tools for such a business.
Twelve weeks later, they were sold, replaced with $70,000.
Soon thereafter, his wife was pleased to hear a chorus of growing whimpers filling the house like coins in a piggy bank.

Love puppies of all descriptions, but have had dealings with people who see them as a cash commodity and nothing else. It broke my heart. Wish we could find one though. Thanks for the inclusion.

I joined a couple Frenchie Facebook groups to see what they talk about, and it’s heartbreaking to see how many are sold with issues.

It is one thing that has put us off rescue dogs because of socialising issues. I fuss all dogs I come across, and if one we owned got aggressive because it couldn’t share me or know how, it’s not fair on anyone, especially the dogs. Maggie was almost 8 weeks when we brought her home and knew no different, though I swear sometimes she sulked!!
