PlzHelpme financially 4Frenchies ongoing surgeries
Donation protected
Hi
Thank you for visiting my page.
I have 4 French bulldogs Marnie Darcie Ozzy and Aj
who I’ve rescued and adopted over the years. These mischievous adorable loveable characters are my fur babies.
Well.
They say. “Bad things come in threes.”
This is so true as I'm discovering
1x Ozzy was diagnosed with IVDD
2x Aj had to have BOAS surgery 2 weeks ago
3x Marnie has a deep Corneal Ulcer on her eye which required surgery and sadly she needs to have ongoing treatments to try and save her eye.
So I will be brutally honest I need financial assistance and help regarding my French bulldogs who are my world.
Due to my circumstances regarding my health, I don’t have the funds anymore for large invoices and I’m struggling with the recent veterinary bills for my Frenchies surgeries as well as the ongoing treatments and the medication that will be required to save Marnie’s eye.
I have attached the current invoice
If you would be able to contribute to my dog's cause? A donation of any amount will make a difference and would mean so much to me.
Thank you so much x

Firstly thank you for taking the time to read this about Aj who is one of my French bulldogs I’ve rescued.
Aj is a typical French bulldog who’s affectionate outgoing with a lively personality
that I adopted as a puppy, sadly it’s come to the point where he desperately needed to have BOAS surgery as he’s been struggling to breathe on a daily basis which could of ended up being fatal.
Hope this explains a little bit about what his surgery means:
BOAS (Brachycephalic Obstructive Airway Syndrome) is a term used to describe a combination of factors causing breathing difficulties in breeds of dogs with shortened skull and muzzle. their nasal cavities are compacted in a small and short nose, making it very difficult to allow airflow going into them making it difficult to breathe.
The end of their palate which is called the “soft palate”, can be too long and thick for their flat face, which makes it obstruct the back of their throat, leading at best to loud “snoring” noises when they breathe, at worse to complete respiratory obstruction. Causing Death
Despite all this Aj has a heart of gold he's a typical mischievous bubbly character even though he did not have the best start in life.
I adopted Aj from the DogsTrust a UK charity when he was a puppy - Aj was found crying inside a suitcase that contained puppies that were being smuggled into the UK in the boot of a car at The Port of Dover which is Europe’s busiest ferry port.
Aj and 2 of his sibling were the lucky ones to be found as sadly the other puppies had died from suffocation and poor health conditions. Once the puppies were old enough and their health had improved that's when they went up for adoption.
I have 4 french bulldogs and apart from 1 the other 3 Frenchies I've adopted over the years.
A few years ago I set up a Tiktok account as I was struggling with my health at the time and to be brutally honest my dogs saved my life and to this day I regularly post videos of them.
You can find us on Tiktok I'm known as @french_bulldog_mum Love4 french bulldogs we have over 226k followers and our 2nd account called @love4frenchies_backup has 180k followers, you can see for yourself how adorable and loving my fur-babies are.
Aj is being treated at the Queens Veterinary School Hospital at Cambridge University UK
The veterinary hospital originally gave me an estimate quote between £3500 -£4000 for the BOAS surgery but as you can see from the photos I’ve attached the outstanding bill for his surgery total £3591. 51
The veterinary surgeon has advised me that Aj may require Lazer surgery in a few months' time if his breathing has not improved.
If I'm honest I'm embarrassed to ask for help but sometimes you have to swallow your pride if you can donate financially towards Aj’s veterinary costs from his surgery he had this will help tremendously and I will be updating my Tiktok and Instagram accounts with Aj’s and Marnie’s progress
Thank you for your support and kindness xx
