Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Frankie!
This handsome 18 pound, 15 year old Rat Terrier came to our rescue as a neglect case. When he first went to his foster home, Frankie was anxious, unsure, and didn't quite know what to do with himself.
Fast forward 3 weeks and look at him now! This little man is so happy now and loves his new foster home and his new life. Frankie loves his daily routine - their walks around Crescent Lake Park, going to doggie park and hanging out on the front porch with his foster dad.
In the pictures, you can see his favorite blanket.... the blanket that he drags around the house and fluffs up so he can lay on right next to his dad wherever he is in the house. When his foster dad is sitting on the couch, he'll drag it over so he, and his blankie, can get up on the couch too! He has turned out to be quite the lap dog - who knew! :) It's amazing what love and a little time can do!!
If you are looking for a sweet, cuddly little companion, please go to our website, safepawsrescue.com and submit the Adoption Application. Our adoption process includes a home visit and veterinarian and/or personal check. Safe Paws Rescue is a small rescue in St. Petersburg, FL so we accept inquiries from residents in Pinellas County only, please.
