16-12-24 Frankie has come to us from a breeder, ready to find his forever home. He was very unsure of us to begin with and would panic and could choose to make the wrong decision if pushed out of his comfort zone. For this reason he will be looking for an adult only home with no visiting children and with adopters who have had similar dogs in the past. He will also need another kind and confident resident dog in the home to be his friend and companion. Once he gets to know you, he does let his guard down and you can see glimpses of the sweet and cheeky character below the surface. If you take things at his own speed, then with lots of love and kindness he should soon start to settle in and become the most loyal companion. Currently, Frankie just likes things on his terms and within his boundaries, which is understandable so he will need a kind home that will continue to be understanding as he settles in. He has been coming up to us for a fuss and he likes to have bum scratches! Seriously... he loves them so much he will do them himself by rubbing up against you!! He is quite the character and we cant wait to experience the coming days/weeks with him and watch his worries ease and his trust grow. Frankie has come to us underweight so he will need to continue a healthy and hearty diet to get himself a healthy weight! Frankie also has an overshot jaw as you can see by the pictures, but this will be assessed by the vets. Frankie has not had the chance to live in a home just yet, so he will need his new family to be understanding as he learns new skills such as how to walk on a lead and house trainings. He has a PETS travel document/
Please read our information on ADOPTING EX-BREEDING DOGS before you apply.
PLEASE NOTE: We nearly always home dogs who have come from breeders where there is ALREADY A RESIDENT DOG living in the house. They have usually never lived in a house before and are only used to canine company. They usually get their confidence and learn faster with another dog to copy from. This also helps with house training and learning how to walk on a lead. They will make lovely pets but do need a lot of love, time and patience. If the ex breeding dog you are interested in can be an only dog it will say so in its write up. Please read our information on ADOPTING EX-BREEDING DOGS before you apply.
