Meet Fonzi: A Little Dog with a Big Heart

          Fonzie, a three-year-old French bulldog, is proof that resilience comes in small, wiggly packages.
Found as a stray unable to move his back legs, hungry and thirsty, Fonzi has made an inspiring recovery thanks to early care. His back legs are still weak, but he gets around just fine in his own signature way—part wiggle, part scoot, and full determination.
          What really sets Fonzi apart is his heart. He loves kids, belly rubs, and being told he’s handsome. Sweet, affectionate, and full of personality, he’s been lovingly nicknamed the “wiggly-butt wonder.”
Fonzie does need a little extra support—he currently requires diapers and may need future veterinary care—but he offers endless love in return.
          Fonzie (ID A552740) is available for adoption at the Santa Maria County Animal Shelter, 548 W. Foster Road. Call (805) 934-6119 to meet him.
         Sometimes the dogs who move a little differently are the ones who move you the most.
