Cleft Pup Brigade (2026)

This page is an affiliate page of the rescue Fred's Friends (located in Northern California), which only takes in cleft palate/lip puppies. He was barely 1lb, had a cleft lip with a partial cleft palate, staph infection, entropion and possible hydrocephalus. He has since grown into an incredibly handsome, loving boy. He has become an advocate for cleft palate puppies and started Fred's Friends on their journey of rescuing these special puppies.

PABLO 💙 (aka Sir Screams-a-Lot, aka The Menace, aka Tiny Overlord)

Pablo came to me just a few hours old with his sister. Sadly we lost her within a few days … but this boy? He said “not today” and has been making up for it ever since.

He is THRIVING.

Cleft lip only — which means now that he’s weaned, he eats on his own, drinks on his own, and somehow still finds the energy to argue with me about literally everything.

This kid has OPINIONS.
He TALKS BACK.
He has decided he runs this house.

And honestly? He might be right.

He’s a fluffy little gremlin, a full-functioning chaos machine, and the definition of “started from the bottom now we’re here.” Watching him go from fragile newborn to this loud, spicy, thriving menace has been everything 🥹

BUT—real life rescue check ✋

We are STRUGGLING over here in the supply department. Like… “staring at the last bag of formula and doing math I don’t like” struggling 😅

We are currently in need of:
• Puppy formula (down to the LAST bag 😬)
• Puppy food
• Laundry detergent (because these puppies are committed to chaos and I am committed to washing everything 47 times a day)
• Feeding tubes
Wishlist is here:

Also — I know I’ve been a little MIA. Life has been a mix of many hours of work + puppies + absolute chaos behind the scenes. But I promise I’m going to start posting more of the babies we currently have over the next few days, because there are some VERY good little nuggets you need to meet.

As always… thank you. Seriously. None of this happens without you guys.

Now if you’ll excuse me, Pablo is yelling at me because his meal was served 3 seconds later than he prefers. 🙄💙

Happy Thursday not Friday (whoops) from little Miss Langley (L-A-N-G-L-E-Y) 💕

I know it’s been a little quiet over here lately—life has been a lot behind the scenes, and I’ve been working more than usual—but I want you all to know we are still very much here… and very much in the middle of puppy chaos 🐶

Right now, we have six puppies in our care, and we could really use some help restocking the basics. We are especially in need of:
• Puppy food
• Puppy formula
• Laundry Detergent

If you’re able to grab something from our wish list, it truly makes a direct difference for these little ones.

Miss Langley wanted to pop in and remind everyone that we’re still here, still doing the work, just a little quieter while juggling it all 💛 I’ll be introducing the rest of the babies over the next few days so you can meet all the sweet faces you’re helping support.

As always, thank you for being here, for caring, and for continuing to show up for these pups. Even just liking, commenting, or sharing this post helps more than you know—it helps us reach more people and keep this going.

We appreciate you so much 🤍

BREAKING NEWS: Neighborly Nelson exists and he is unfairly cute. 🐾

Fluffy Frenchie.
Cleft lip & palate king.
Built like a marshmallow with WiFi.

This tiny man has grown SO much in just a few weeks it’s honestly disrespectful. Stronger every day. Thriving. Out here beating the odds while looking like a lint roller commercial.

Yes, he needs special care.
No, he does not need your opinion.
He does, however, need to be told he’s perfect at least 63 times daily.

The floof? Unstable.
The progress? Elite.
My self-control? Gone.

Please scream appropriately in the comments. 🚨🐾

Hi friends 🐶🤍

We know it’s been a little quiet on here lately… but behind the scenes it’s been full-on puppy snuggles, tiny victories, and lots of very cute chaos.

We have some seriously adorable little ones in our care right now (and a couple not pictured here who apparently didn’t sign their media release forms 😅).

At the very beginning of the video you’ll see our sweet Dolly 💕 She is doing so well. Truly. We are so proud of her. I’ll be posting another video soon so you can see her back legs and the progress she’s making. It may not look dramatic to everyone else, but to us? It’s huge. Every small improvement feels like a celebration.

If you’ve been thinking about helping, supplies are always such a blessing for us. The everyday essentials make it possible for us to keep going and keep saying yes to these babies. It truly takes a village.

Thank you for loving them with us. For cheering them on. For sticking around even when we’re quiet. We’re still here… and so are these sweet little lives that depend on all of us 🤍🐾
