About Checkers
LOOKING FOR FOSTER CARE
Checkers the nearly 1 year old French Bulldog is searching for a foster home that will help us nurse him back to health.
He is a super sweet and smoochy boy who will soak up all the love he can get, so would love a foster home where if carers could be home a lot of the time.
Poor Checkers came into our care in very poor condition. He presented to our clinic with large abnormal growths in his ear canal that have caused a serious infection and will require surgical intervention and ongoing treatment, so it is important that his foster carer lives within a reasonable distance of our shelter vet clinic and has the ability to transport him to and from appointments.
He has some gastrointestinal issues that our vet team believe is food allergy related, so he has been placed on a specialty diet to help settle his tummy.
Checkers required more socialisation around other dogs in order to build his confidence, and at this stage it is best that he is the only pet in his foster home while he learns how to appropriately greet other dogs.
He has lived with children and teenagers previously and would be happy to share his foster home with human siblings as long as they were respectful and dog-savvy.
