About Pork chop
Meet Pork Chop. This energetic ball of love enjoys zooming around the yard, getting your attention so that he can hug and lean into you for lots of pats.
He loves to play, have fun and be told that hes the most beautiful boy in the world. Porky, as he is affectionately known, is very boisterous and a little mouthy in his play. We therefore advise that he is not suitable for young children.
He loves to strike a pose and is quite intune to where you are once he has identified that you are his person. He is very food motivated and will sit for treats. He is eager to please you and he has great potential to be an amazing mate.
Like some bulldogs he can have selective hearing and pretend that he can't hear you. His recall training does need some work. It is recommended that he does not attend off leash areas as he could get distracted and separate from you. He is also very strong and is more of a bigger medium dog.
It is not cat friendly and homes with cats or pocket pets are not recommended. As for dogs, he is unsocalised and can be reactive if rushed. He requires lots of training and support with socialising to develop social skills. Currently, he needs to be the ONLY dog whilst his owners work further on his social skills.
This charming loveable pork chop has the cutest nose and light eyes. Due to living in Australia we would need a family that welcomes him into the home and is very on top of sun safety. Porkchop has never been toilet trained so is this is currently a work in progress but he is comfortable outside, on car rides and rarely bark or whines. Porkchop is currently being crate trained and sleeps in the crate inside of a night
Training a frenchie can be tough work. They lose focus and interest quickly. They love praise and feeling that they are loved and a part of the family, yelling and punishments will cause the frenchie to lose interest in you and not engage in training.
Toilet training can be a tough process and may take up to six months or more. Patience patience patience is needed. It's super important that he be toilet trained so that he can spend summer in doors in cooler conditions so his breathing doesnt become laboured.
Please also note that french bulldog cannot swim and need a lot of supervision near pools or other bodies of water.
Although a sought after breed and a charming young dog, he is not for the faint hearted. Not only do they have a range of health issues they can be very stubborn
We are looking for an experienced family that can continue with his training and ongoing socialization.
