More about Luigi

Introducing our little man, Luigi! Like his video game name sake, Luigi is a kind hearted little soul who will make the perfect side kick.

Luigi came into Battersea after his owner could no longer care for him. He has a good history with meeting new people and has been friendly with all those he has met during his time in our care. He loves to run around our paddock (as you will see from his photos) and has been taken to a local park as well, which he enjoyed. Luigi's previous family were not too confident with letting him meet other dogs and so his social skills are a little limited. He has shown he can be a bit rude around other dogs, controlling their movements and mouthing towards them. He has, however, also shown more independent behaviours and met a variety of dogs during his time with us, and continues to make progress with his social skills.

Luigi would suit a family who are familiar with French Bulldogs and their sometimes 'awkward' body language, or those who have really researched the breed and are confident to continue building on the work we have started with him. He was house trained in his previous home and lived with teenagers, so could live with older children and teens again, pending intros at our Brands Hatch centre. Luigi would benefit from new owners who can be at home with him for most of the time to begin with, so he can settle in and find his paws. He could be built up to being left for short periods throughout the day if his owners start this slowly.
