My story

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

Meet Frank!
Frank is a seven-year-old Australian Shepherd, weighing approximately 40 pounds. He is a likely double merle, which means he is completely deaf and has some vision impairment. However, he can track movement very well and navigates his world with confidence. He may take a moment to spot stationary objects, but that doesn’t slow him down one bit!

Frank is an absolute sweetheart who loves nothing more than snuggling on the couch with his favorite person. While there are no children in his foster home, we believe he would do well with kids, as he has never shown any aggression. He gets along beautifully with other dogs, both big and small, and has done well with cats, too!

Special Considerations
Due to his deafness and limited vision, Frank doesn't always pick up on social cues from other dogs. He may accidentally walk into them if they’re lying still or not notice when they’re uncomfortable with his presence. For this reason, a home without reactive dogs would be best. Frank was previously attacked by larger dogs, so he may be a bit wary of them.

Fun Facts About Frank!
He loves to play fetch and is amazing at catching moving objects!
Since he gets very excited during playtime, fetch toys are used at scheduled times to prevent obsession.
House-trained – only one accident on his first day!
Crate-trained – he stays in his crate while his foster mom is at work and at night without any fuss.
Frank is an amazing, affectionate boy who is looking for a loving home that understands his special needs. If you think Frank would be the perfect addition to your family, please fill out an application—he can’t wait to meet you!
