About Esa
Esa is a sweet, 1-year-old girl weighing 21 pounds. Found as a stray, she required an emergency spay and an eye enucleation before being rescued by a kind veterinarian who connected her with our team. She also recently had successful cherry eye surgery on her remaining eye. Despite her tough start, Esa is learning that the world is a safe place. She is still a bit shy and skittish, but she makes progress every day and loves relaxing in her kennel with a soft blanket.
Ideal Home & Expectations
- Family & Environment: Esa would thrive with an active family who includes her in daily activities. She requires an experienced Boston Terrier or French Bulldog owner who can provide the time, patience, and encouragement she needs to build confidence.
- Yard Requirements: A securely fenced yard is required (we cannot accept invisible fencing or apartments) as she continues working on leash training.
- Other Pets: Esa prefers to be the center of attention, but she can coexist with a low-key male dog after proper introductions. She also does well with cats (she is currently fostered with two).
- Children: She does best with calm, respectful children who have experience living with dogs.
- Medical Needs: Annual follow-up appointments with a veterinary ophthalmologist are required to monitor her remaining eye and check for dry eye following her cherry eye repair.
