About Wilson

Wilson is a 1-year-old French bulldog with a cleft palate, but it doesn’t slow him down—he eats and drinks just fine, as long as he has food at the right consistency. His adopter should be ready to learn about cleft care and feeding; full guidance is provided once approved. This young pup is crate trained and used to be reliable with house training, though he’s having a little regression lately. Patience, routine, and a gentle hand with training will be key for his progress. Wilson is surprisingly quiet—he doesn’t bark, and he handles walks on a leash with no trouble. He has excellent manners: he waits politely at mealtimes, checks with his person before snatching up dropped food, and only comes out of his crate when given a command. He’s smart and responsive, but like many Frenchies, he needs those good habits to be reinforced or he’ll start testing boundaries. Born under the sign of Pisces, Wilson might have a bit of that classic sensitive, intuitive streak. He’s looking for someone who’ll dedicate the time and consistency he needs. This could be a wonderful partnership for the right adopter. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
