Cleo is a small French Bulldog, about four years old and weighing in at around 17 pounds. She’s had a tough start—passed from one family member to another, she even ended up a stray a few times. Her previous owners realized they couldn’t keep up with her needs and surrendered her, a decision that likely saved her life. Cleo came in with chronic ear infections and a mass in her ear that needed urgent care, plus she needed to be spayed and have a mammary mass removed. Thankfully, all her biopsies were benign, and she’s handled everything with resilience. Her ear issues will require ongoing monitoring, which is not uncommon for French Bulldogs, but it’s manageable with attention. Despite what she’s been through, Cleo is still wiggly, playful, and always happy for snacks and attention. She likes other dogs, does well in the house, and thrives on companionship. Cleo is house trained, spayed, vaccinated, and has been microchipped. She would do well with a loving family who understands her breed’s needs and can keep up with her ear care long-term. Living situations within a couple hours of Orange County are preferred, but long-distance adopters may be considered if she remains unplaced locally. She’s looking for a stable home that can give her the care—and fun—she’s missed. Your new best friend is just one click away.
