My story

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

Hola, Me llamo Francisco!

I am an extremely handsome Shepherd/Husky mix boy (possibly mixed with Akita) and I am about 5 years of age. I am a good-sized boy weighing in at just over 70 pounds. However, I`m all done growing, so now I`ll just need exercise.

I love to play fetch, I discovered, and I love my tasty treats.

When I came to the shelter, I had been running for quite some time. Tired and scared. I was very nervous when I first got here but after a few days of the wonderful people here working with me and showing me that I could trust them, I have come out of my shell so much. I love to get pets and scratches, you will just need to go slow with me and help me understand you mean me no harm.

I will need to go to a home with older teens (above the age of 14) and to adopters that are VERY familiar with my breed mixes. It is imperative I receive the nourishment, exercise and mental stimulation I require. I LOVE to play with other dogs, but, unfortunately, cats are not a good idea. If you have cats, you should definitely check out some of my other friends at the shelter that may be more cat-friendly.

Join us for the Bissell Empty the Shelters Event October 1-15!
Adoption hours are M-F 10-4.
