Meet Francesca

I entered this world on December 13, 2004, in Pinewood, Minnesota. I’m a bit older and certainly far wiser than Sharkey. Like Sharkey, I’m also friendly and quite curious, but I’m more cautious about letting my curiosity get me into trouble. I must admit that we do have fun together. I just know when to stop. Martha describes me as being a bit obsequious, but that’s just my ability to pull the wool over her eyes. I’m just clever! I do have a high opinion about myself, and my fashion sense is magnifique! In fact, Je suis fabuleuse (I am fabulous.)

Relaying a Message to the Donkeys

Posted by Francesca

As you know, I’ve been confined to the house with my neck issues and I haven’t been able to do most of the things that I so love doing.  Sharkey has been doing a great job holding the fort down and reporting on the Daily Wag.  I suppose with all the added responsibility, she might …

As you may know, I am being confined to a crate for a total of 30 days.  I must try to remain calm and inactive so that my bulging neck disc has a chance to heal.  However, it would be helpful if I had a little more in the way of entertainment.

Sharkey and I were in our blog studio monitoring comments from all of our Glue Squad buddies on The Daily Wag.  What a great group of friends!  Anyway, I got distracted by something moving on the floor and I went to have a better look.  Talk about being in the wrong place at the wrong …

Spa Time For Frenchies!

Posted by Francesca

We are very active French bulldogs and we lead fascinating lives.  Sometimes, on our outdoor adventures, we get into some pretty funky-smelling stuff, which isn’t acceptable within the confines of our home.  Why do dogs like stinky stuff anyway?

Some of What We're Thankful For

For the past few blogs, Dr. Pia has been talking a lot about adopted pets and being thankful.  She is also participating once again in Petside’s yearly blog event, sharing great information with other bloggers about this year’s chosen topic, adoption.  Although we Frenchies were neither rescued nor adopted, we know that many members of …

Today on Martha’s blog, she posted a lot of photos taken at an estate sale in Connecticut.  She told Uncle Carlos to drive the van and pick something up.  So, we all piled in and drove to the sale.

Chasing a Squirrel Again!

It’s no secret that we Frenchies love to chase squirrels.  This autumn, there are so many of those critters all over the farm – a real population explosion.  We like to feet our feathered friends and those squirrels really take advantage of the situation.

If you’re a fan of Japanese Maple trees, then you most likely know that crisp autumn is when those beautiful trees put on an amazing display.  Our grove of trees, planted a few years ago, is growing very nicely.

Storing the Tropical Plants Away for the Winter

Storing the Tropical Plants Away for the Winter

Posted by Francesca

With cooler temperatures arriving, our winter wardrobe has been emerging little by little.  We got to thinking that if we’re getting cold outdoors, then all of the tropical potted plants must be feeling it too.  We know how much the farm crew has to do to prepare for the cold months ahead, so we, Frenchies, …
