Welcome little Bennie.
This boy is in RUFF shape! But we'll get him fixed up. Unfortunately a skin cytology at the vet indicated he does have demodex mange, yeast, and bacterial infection of the skin. He's started on some meds and we're focused on boosting his immune system. He also started ear meds for his infected ears.
He will need to be neutered once healthy, and we'll also do a nares surgery as well as possible palate surgery.
This boy has a long road of recovery ahead of him, but he's a strong little Frenchie. We can't wait to see his transformation.
Bennie is settling in to his foster home well.
Great news for little Bennie. The vet did a skin scrape and no mites were seen! We will keep up his protocol tho to make sure they stay gone. He gets a dehydrated raw diet, immune supplements, Chinese herbs, & a blend of AnimalEO oils to treat the mites & pupcups of course

#frenchiefriday
little Bennie is still building up his immune system and battling skin issues. He has a long recovery ahead of him but he’s getting lots of love while he heals |
Great big fank you to @perfectpennybulldog ‘s momager for taking me in on short notice. Just a reminder - we always needs foster homes. Da rescue pays for everything. You just need to snuggle us and be our chauffeur to vet appts. Must live in Indy area / within an hour of Bargersville Vet Hospital. - Bennie

Getting a check up at Bargersville Veterinary Hospital! Getting X-rays to look at my esophagus and spine. Plus having an evaluation to see if there are any Chinese herbs to slow my roll a bit. My separation anxiety is .... actually we’ve been working on it. It’s like 25% improved Can’t wait for good boi camp end of June with Click Treat Repeat Canine Coaching, LLC

I’m def a typical sourpatch frenchie.... a little sweet... a little sour I’ve been working hard on my separation anxiety but I may need to go to Good Boi Camp for extra help. Plus I need neutered still. And my palate and nares done so I can breath. I’m still undergoing natural treatment for my mange. It’s improving but it’s a slow process to rebuild the gut biome and strengthen the immune system.

Bennie update :
Bennie had a vet appt this week also!
(That's 6 vet appts this week folks- Minnie had a recheck Monday also - please note the donation button lol )
One of our concerns is that he’s frequently kind of hunched over... he stands stiffly and awkwardly. If you dont know, French bulldogs are prone to IVDD (Intervertebral Disc Disease). So we asked our vet to take some X-rays and sure enough , he has 4 areas of herniation. We already started him on some disc supplements but he’ll need a neuro consult to explore what’s the best course of action. We certainly don’t want it to get worse and find him needing an emergency spinal surgery in the future.
So now I’m backing begging for more money I’ll be buying another lottery ticket tonight too lol
Please consider donating to his care. Spinal issues are not cheap. He’s still being treated for mange and will need to be neutered once he’s healthier.
Tilly needs eye and palate surgery next month as well as spay.

It’s National Hug Your Cat Day. Get down here and let me hug you. -Bennie

Is Monday gone yet?

Bennie is the #thirdwheel on #nationalbestfriendday. Frankly he would prefer a home with less friends. Like just a cat friend maybe. Or some fish
Waiting for my appt with the neurologist at VCA Animal Hospitals. I know they said come fasting , but I’m sure a lick of that PupCup won’t hurt. Just set it down and look away. No harm no foul. -Bennie
Please if everyone could share our posts. We have a LOT of medical bills for these babies and any donations are so appreciated

Headed to training!
|
The trainer says Bennie is doing very well at Good Boi Camp. He’s gaining confidence and doing well with his crate training / separation anxiety. Bennie would be best suited to be the only pupper in the home, even after training. But he’s great with cats! He’ll be neutered and have his palate surgery next month. Interested in adopting? Fill out an app online!
(Photo : Bennie was picking up his Answers Pet Food from Platinum Paws before going to Click Treat Repeat Canine Coaching, LLC. He’s doing so well on Answers and will need to continue it in his forever home). |
Picking this dude up tomorrow from the trainer. We still need a foster or adopter for Bennie… no dogs or young kids but fine with cats!

Hi friends! Tomorrow is my surgery date. Please please please send me good thoughts. They’re going to do an exam first thing to see if I’m stable enough to proceed. If not we’ll push it to next week.
Pawsitive thoughts needed please!!
We are proceeding with surgery today. It will be a rough recovery anyway but I’m at an extra high risk. So we need allllll the pawsitive thoughts and good juju yo can muster please I’m already at the vet but here’s a pic of me being sexy this morning. -Bennie |
Just got a call from one of the doctors, he’s under anesthesia right now. They started with the neuter… Already running into some weird stuff with him. Because of course none of these dogs can ever be normal LOL
So basically the tube that carries the little baby Bennies to the testicles is super thick on one side. So they called to see if it be OK if they did sort of an exploratory surgery up in there to see what’s going on. Of course we said yes… They haven’t started the palate or nares yet. Please keep those pawsitive thoughts coming !! |
Update 2- they would like to send out the thickened tube for analysis. His lymph node is also swollen, they aspirated it and are sending that out as well. They just closed up his abdomen and are starting on his palate and nares. His blood pressure has been a little low, but stable. He probably won’t be ready to go home until closer till 6 PM tonight
|
Oh man. We are headed home but he is NOT happy Thank you to Bargersville Veterinary Hospital for taking such good care of him today!

What do u mean REST?!? For how long?!?
