Here's what the humans have to say about me:
ADOPT FRANKIE!
Hi everybody my name is Frankie. I’m an 11 lb. Pomeranian mix, about 2 years old. I’m a very happy sweet boy who’s about as gentle and laid back as they come. I’m very good about going outside to do my business. I love to cuddle on your lap for naps during the day. At night I currently snuggle up next to my foster mom in the big person bed.
I get along very well with other dogs. But I’m also very content with just chilling out on my own. I’m a little guy so a small dog secure fence is probably best. I’ve already escaped through the pickets of my current fence. I can’t help it, I’m just curious I guess. I do occasionally like to do my zoomies in the yard as well. As far as kids, I haven’t really been around them at all, but I’m a small guy and usually very gentle. With my longer hair I will need to be groomed on a regular basis. I will say my first bath with my foster mom was a little scary for me, but I pretty much let her do what she needed to do. Then I pouted and ignored her for a bit.
I’ve stayed out of trouble, for the most part. I’m normally cuddled up on my dog bed while my foster mom makes dinner. And during dinner, it’s pretty much the same thing. As long as I’m near people I’m pretty content. I’m also learning about this world we’re in, and have not been exposed to a lot on a walk, so I do tend to get a little scared or curious when hearing a new noise.
I’d say I’m a mellow little munchkin who would make a great addition to any family.
I have been vet checked, neutered, microchipped, heartworm tested negative, am up to date on routine shots including rabies and have been treated with flea & heartworm preventative. So I am ready to go to my forever loving home.
Frankie’s adoption fee is $525.
