Daughter has wanted a Frenchie for years and we discovered a breeder with a cancellation and puppy available immediately. They never grow into their ears, theyâll always look slightly ridiculous. As Iâm available for house-training timing was good. Itâs going to be fun(ish) !!!

Mine. Ooh squeee, ooh squiffle⌠Am pining for a 14-wk French Bulldog who is probably still pining for my handbag. Lovely wee sausage of fatness wtih a Face and Big Ears and a Ridiculous Hinder End and a completely sunny silly puppy personality. Waaah.
Mine.
Mrs B Cat says âHersâ too, but I donât think benignly.

My dog would love Bruce. One of her friends we often meet whilst Iâm walking her and his owner is walking him. Is a Frenchie (less than a year old).

Oh dear. Iâm remembering how bloody knackering it is watching a puppy like a hawk and scooping it up to go outside and perform there. He made an impressive effort to poo outside by using the windowsill, so I think progress is being made!

But just think of the quick responses and state of alertness youâll have by the time Bruce is house-trained.

Saw two hedgepigs while driving home. Not much of an achievement, but mine own.

House update.
The final 5 internal doors are now fitted. A little topping & tailing tomorrow & thatâs the projects completed* ⌠until Phase 2.
Itâs good to have a completely OCD craftsperson. He fits the doors so meticulously. Cleans & tidies after himself. Arrives on the dot of when he says he will ⌠& I know this as Iâve seen that heâs actually a few minutes early each day and sits in his van.
He doesnât stop for tea/coffee/water/gin or anything. Just arrives, knuckles down, sits in his van for 30m at 1pm precisely (& I MEAN âpreciselyâ) despite me saying he can stay in the house.
I almost wish I had more doors needed doing.
*Mrs A. surprisingly mentioned the kitchen could do with painting, even though the kitchen IS Phase 2.
