About Frankie

Distance: 851 Miles
*Adoptions only to Missouri, Kansas, and surrounding states.  Frankie must have a home with no children, fenced yard, and a quiet lifestyle. No exceptions will be made. Frankie is a petite, 5-year-old girl looking for a quiet home that will love her shy self just as she is. We don’t know a lot about the first few years of Frankie’s life or why she is so sensitive to loud sounds and sudden movements, but because of this she needs a home without children. Frankie needs a home with at least one other dog, especially well-socialized dogs to show her the ropes. Two of her favorite things are going on walks and sunbathing in the yard. When her foster home gets out her harness for walks, her entire body wiggles in excitement! It has taken several months for Frankie to settle in and become much more comfortable in her foster home, so it will likely take her as long to settle into an adoptive home. It was worth the wait as she regularly jumps on the couch now and seeks out affection. That said, she would love a family that does not demand or expect affection and attention and is willing to accept that she is a dog content to keep to herself a lot of the time. Frankie has made vast improvements in her potty training but still has occasional accidents if she is not let outside regularly. She prefers not to be crated and has destuffed more than one bed, but she may have accidents if left out. Frankie is spayed, UTD on vaccinations, and on heartworm preventative. She also takes medication to help with her anxiety. This little girl really is a sweetheart who has a lot of love to give in her own quirky way.
