Hi all,
We just added to our family a 5 month old male Frenchie, a rescue that we know has been in at least 3 states already. Other than that...not much history. We have had him a week and he seems to be adjusting well, vet gave him a clean bill of health. So question here, since this is my first frenchie...is his personality/behavior. He is aloof at all times. I've never seen any dog this calm or chill. Even the vet said he has never seen anything like it lol. Obviously we don't know his background so...its hard to say what is what. He just lays around and seems content. When not laying he just sits and stares, not much for running or jumping, no licking or kisses or greeting. He does like to snuggle and sleep on me. He moves like a snail...very slow no excitement. So far it's that way in any setting. He just sits and stares at me. Not shy or scared at all...just has no cares or worries in the world. The first 2 days I honestly thought he was sick, I've never seen a puppy so calm and quiet....well other than the snorting.
Anyone have experience with a Frenchie like this? Thoughts?
Thanks,
Carris
