"Thankful for Frenchies"
By Gracie Sutcliffe
Frenchies are cute, Frenchies are small, Frenchies look beautiful in their sweaters this fall.
They make me smile, they make me laugh, they make me giggle when I am sad.
From their head to their toe, deep in their soul, they are filled with laughter and love, with hearts made of gold.
On this wonderful day, let us bow our heads and pray, that we are thankful for Frenchies, every night and all day.
I am thankful for frenchie companionship in the middle of the night when rocking my crying child back to sleep. –Dawn
I love my frenchie because i can always count on them! But also sleep and snuggle with her all night long without her moving! Hahahahahaha. In the winter its fun because we get to pick out all different kinds of sweaters and jackets (only cute ones)! But the disadvantages are when they fart! Trust me does it stink up the house! But how could you ever stop loving them I know i can’t! -Maris
i give thanks to my frenchies because they snort and they smile so amazingly and they snuggle and play with all of their heart.... p.s. their names are freeman and monte. –Mikayla
we are thankful for frenchie licking and sneezing and kissing. we are thankful for all of the funny things they do; like how they hide their toys under our beds and how they race each other around the house and how they pop open the screen door with their heads when they see a squirrel in the back yard!
we are thankful that they like to nap with us on the couch and watch cartoons. we are thankful for the all-star wrestling that they do that makes us laugh so hard. and most of all we are thankful for the way they wait for us at the bus stop after school!
we love them very much! -Ella and Owen
I am thankful when I feel the warm breath blowing on my cheek as I hear soft snores in my ear, the warmth they give me when all snuggled up on a cold night. The happy dance when I return home and they look at me like the world is safe now because I'm here. The fact that they love me no matter what I look like and the love is unconditional. Most of all I am thankful to have a frenchie in my life. I sure am thankful for these dogs. –Debbie
i am thankful for when they cuddle with me on the couch.
when i open their kennels they get all excited because
i got home from school i would play with them outside.
i like when sinnamon my foster dog chews on everything -Kennedy
I am thankful for when the Frenchies decide they want to be a lap dog, especially my butterball of a pup. And of course someone to snuggle with at night. {Even if the bed is a bit wet from them chomping on their nylabones.} -Zoe
I'm thankful for their merriment and compassion. My Frenchies read my moods and know when I need a good laugh, or cuddle time, and they are always more than willing to give me what I need. My Frenchies are the best therapists in the world. –Dorey
I am thankful for when my frenchie, Dobby, comes and sits on me and all my things while I'm trying to do my homework. I also love how when she is playing, she misses the toy that was thrown and crashes into a wall or a door! Lastly I love how she smells when she comes in from the rain and eats grass outside on a sunny day. -Cecilia
Things about Frenchies I am thankful for:
Their cuteness- It just draws you in and makes you love them even more (not like you wouldn't love them to the max already)
Their personality- Frenchies are naturally loveably hilarious.
Their humor- Nothing on T.V. tonight? Do you have a Frenchie? If so, they
can provide all the entertainment you need!
Their company- With a Frenchie by your side, you shall never be lonely. -Nina
Their face-Like a cross between a pig and a smushed candy bar
And everything else about these loveable animals. -Henry
I am thankful for Frenchie farting! That way, we can always blame it on the dog! -Karen

Raspberry
This weekend, one of our volunteers and a volunteer's sister (not friend, nor family, nor distant acquaintaince is safe from our requests for help!) made a team effort to move sweet Raspberry from her foster home in Georgia to Tennessee, where she will be spayed and have her hiatal hernia repaired.
Do you want to know why we went to all this trouble for just a spay and a hiatal hernia repair? The University of Tennessee is very well-regarded, of course, but it was also hundreds of dollars less expensive than we could have had the procedures done in Georgia. We wanted you to know that we are always careful and responsible with the funds you send us. Spending money thoughtfully is so important to us that we will dragoon family and friends in the effort! But when they get to hold and see their cargo, they don't mind!
Thank you so much for helping us with Raspberry and all the other dogs in our care! We'll let you know how her surgery goes on the blog. Meanwhile, please keep a good thought for Raspberry!

Our little cookie Oreo got a nasty twist several weeks ago, and had surgery to put her together again.
Her creamy, sweet center is being revealed as she has recovered from surgery. She's back to being reliably housetrained, she's not nearly as headstrong as she was, and we are just astonished that this girl has received zero applications. She should go to a one-dog family with a strong leader, or someone willing to learn how to be strong.
Look at her! Isn't she tempting? Don't you need a cookie right about now?
