My name is Frankie!

~~THIS DOES IS **NOT** IN THE CARE OF THE ALTERNATIVE HUMANE SOCIETY. PLEASE REACH OUT TO THE OWNER DIRECTLY AT ksherman91@live.com  THANK YOU ~~

Frankie is a 5year old Blue Heeler. Frankie is a good boy with a sweet heart. He loves his humans and is a great watch dog. He loves outdoor time and playing fetch with a ball or a frisbee. He is the first to greet you when you get home and is sad to see you leave. He is potty trained and incredibly smart, but also a little stubborn. He knows many commands but tests his independence sometimes when off leash.

Frankie is an only dog and would prefer to stay that way. He does well on leash but when he crosses other dogs' paths he tends to bark or try to show dominance. With consistent walks I believe this could be corrected. He loves going on adventures and walks.

He has lived with cats his whole life and is gentle with them but as a cattle dog he tends to herd them.

Frankie would do fine with older kids but cannot be with small children. He tends to react when provoked or stressed.

He is due for his latest shots and is otherwise healthy without any health concerns. 

Frankie would thrive in a home with a fenced in yard with room to play and run, no other dogs, and no small children. He needs regular exercise and attention.

Frankie is roughly 50 lbs and has medium length black and white hair. I do imagine he might take a short amount of time to  acclimate to his new surroundings and people since he has been with us his whole life, but once he gets to know you he will show his affection.
