49ers Frenchie, NFL’s First Emotional Support Dog, Assists Players And Staff
CBS Local (SF) ^ | 01/07/2020 | Staff

Zoë is the NFL’s first emotional support dog. The smallest 49er offers a big assist to players and staff alike at Levi’s Stadium.

The one-year-old French bulldog spends most of her time in the player engagement office where the team can visit her between practices and before and after games. She is working this week, leading up the big NFC Divisional Playoff at Levi Stadium on Saturday.

The Niners are the first team in the NFL to have a registered emotional support pooch.

Zoë’s talents are many: they include an irresistible charm, the ability to carry a ball quite a long distances without fumbling, an uncanny technique of relaxing her big teammates, and an Instagram account that features many famous Niners cuddling with her.

How long before they hire the first self identifying “female” cheerleader? Oh, please let them not realize it until it’s done and they see where her “pom-poms” REALLY are..

Do they also have safe spaces within the stadium for staff and players to visit when they’re upset?

Having dogs around is just kind of nice. But these people have to homo-it up by calling it an “emotional support dog”. Give me a break. It’s a dog. People have dogs for a reason.

The Bengals had an emotional support Pomeranian, but she ran though all five offensive linemen and knocked QB Andy Dalton to the ground.

“French bulldog...

What’s wrong with an AMERICAN BULLDOG?”

- - - - - - -

A french bulldog is much less likely to damage or kill a player, support personnel, or fan. It usually comes down to money.
