Franklin ( Frankie) *Application Closed*

**18/12/18 THANKS FOR THE INTEREST IN FRANKIE. WE HAVE RECEIVED NUMEROUS APPLICATIONS THAT WE ARE CURRENTLY REVIEWING AND WILL NOT BE TAKING MORE UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE**

Hello there new family! Please read the entire profile and Adoption Procedures BEFORE sending your Enquiry for little Franklin (Frankie). Due to a huge number of applicants and being 100% volunteer run organisation, we are only able to respond to successful applicants. Thank you so kindly for choosing Rescue! xo *

Frankie is an 11 week old puppy, who's small now, but will potentially be a quite big when grown up. His Mumma is a Bassett hound X and we suspect his Dadda to be a Bull Arab X. Franklin is a big floppy boy who loves to be held like a baby while his tummy is being rubbed. Unfortunately for Frankie, he is going to grow to become too big to be cradled, but that is an adventure to be had with his forever home (is that you?!). Frankie is a very happy and playful boy who is always keen for a cuddle. He is a clever boy who responds well to training, but as with all puppies, will benefit from going to puppy school. Frankie is extremely affectionate, and is always ready to cheer you up with his big smile and wagging tail.

He is in foster care with his siblings, his Mumma Rose and his feline (cat) sister Jasmine.

Frankie would need to go to a forever home where there could be another doggy friend to play with, where he will be kept safe, indoors to sleep and when you are not at home. He’s looking for his forever family who will cherish and adore him, right through to the ripe old senior age. We believe dogs are a part of the family and should be included in everyday life and he just loves to be included.

Frankie is living with a very relaxed kitty who is also a rescue. As puppy’s can get a bit boisterous we recommend slow and controlled introductions to your current resident kitties if you have them. This also applies to children as puppies this size can accidently knock toddlers over without understanding what has happened. No one wants puppy or human tears so if you have wee little ones please consider the safety of both before applying.

We're looking for dedicated, mature humans to welcome Frankie into their home & hearts, continue with Franklin’s puppy training & socialisation & also of course commit to his on-going adult training which is so important not only for his particular breed but for any doggy joining a new family.

Adoption applications with an existing family dog will take priority over others. Frankie's ideal home is with another already existing dog to show her the ropes, etiquette, dog to dog interactions and mannerism.
