Frankie - Chihuahua / Mixed (short coat) Dog For Adoption

View more

ion, he bonds strongly with one person, but does enjoy making friends and cuddling with the "spare person" - aka foster dad. He is big on cuddles, and his favorite place is being cozied up with his foster mom. Frankie weighs about 7lbs, and could benefit from gaining a little more weight. Frankie was found as a stray and brought to our local animal shelter. No one came forward to claim him, and after a couple of weeks with little adoption interest, we were more than happy to have him come to us. He has settled in great in his foster home and can't wait to be your new best friend! Frankie is a moderate-energy pup who loves his daily walks and playing with squeaky toys, but also is a big fan of lounging around and soaking up love from his foster parents. He is definitely a little velcro dog and is happiest when he can be involved with whatever his foster mom is up to. He rides great in the car and is a perfect errands buddy. He had learned how to play fetch and has a favorite toy that he cuddles with. Frankie is still a young and learning boy and will need a family dedicated to helping him learn all of his basic manners. Frankie has done well living with other easygoing small dogs, but isn't a big fan of super rambunctious dogs. He would prefer to have his people all to himself, but could do well with dog siblings who respect his space - he has even started playing with one of his foster sisters. We haven't seen Frankie around cats, but he may do well with dog-savvy cats. We haven't seen Frankie around kids, but he may do well with kids over 10 years old. Frankie isn't housetrained and will need a family who can be patient with him while he is learning. He isn't a big fan of being home alone, so he would do best with a family that has a schedule that won't require him to be left often or for long. With time, he may be able to slowly acclimate to being home alone. Frankie may do well living in an apartment with proper exercise. Frankie is such a loving and special little guy.
