About Giselle

Giselle is a 2-year-old French Bulldog/Chihuahua mix with a small frame, a short coat, and more opinions than you’d expect for her size. She’s all about the comforts of indoor life, preferring the sofa to outdoor adventures, and believes treats should be plentiful and playtime should never happen without her involved. New people, especially men, can make Giselle a bit nervous, but with patience—and snacks—she opens up and shines as a goofy, affectionate sidekick. Her playful energy makes her a good candidate for a home with another friendly dog, though she’d also be content as the sole focus. Giselle does have a history of resource guarding food, so she’s best matched with an experienced adopter ready to set boundaries and help her grow. For this reason, she isn’t suited to homes with young children. She’s made big strides with her potty training, settles in well in a crate, and adapts to car rides easily. Giselle doesn’t get along with cats or most other dogs, but handles quiet time and correction well when she gets worked up. She was born on November 1, which makes her a practical and loyal Scorpio.
