My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Frankie was found cowering in some bushes on the streets of Los Angeles. After some calm talking, a bit of coaxing, and a lot of time he allowed me to wrap him in a towel to carry him home.
Once inside away from the noise he calmed even more. Our dog was a great comforter allowing him to realize we weren’t going to harm him. We gave him a bath that evening, surprised he wasn’t that dirty. We believe he was dumped that evening, due to his condition, he wasn’t dirty, nor was he hungry, just scared.
We have since realized Frankie does not like the loud noises of downtown, when we have gone to the park or spent time in quiet environment Frankie does remarkably well.
I think Frankie would be best suited being in a home with a yard, and would love to have another dog, even children.
He’s an incredibly sweet dog, very mindful and attentive, and we would keep him but our living condition is unsuitable for his condition.
