French Dip is a loveable goofus. He is delightfully weird and incredibly affectionate. French takes a bit of time to warm up to new people, but once you’re in, you’ve got a shadow and constant cuddle bug. French has a strong preference for the ladies and is completely obsessed with his foster mom. He’s a top notch cuddler who offers the sweetest and most enthusiastic greetings even after a very short absence. If you’re looking for a dog that will make you feel loved and adored every second of the day, French is your guy.

When it comes to play time, French loves to run and wrestle. He’s a bit goofy and floppy and tends to run with his nose to the ground like a hound. You will frequently find him somersaulting or wrestling curled upside down like an armadillo. Sometimes, you’d think his spine is made of rubber because he happily contorts himself into the goofiest positions in the name of fun.

French is a bit wary of new things and often vocal about his feelings, so he needs slow introductions to new people and dogs. He’s very food motivated, which is helpful when training and very cute in daily life. He gobbles up all kinds of vegetables and interesting foods, so your kitchen floor will always be squeaky clean! French is a sweet, loveable guy who just needs a little extra time to work things out.

French Dip came from a local shelter. He is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and heartworm negative.
