Story

Hi, there. I'm Frankie! Sometimes I'm called Little Franks or Frankfurter. I'm told that I'm such a nice girl and that I give the sweetest little kisses. I may be biased, but I agree. I love getting pets and attention from the humans around here and I especially love playing with all my pup friends. Sometimes I can get a little pester-y with my buds though and the humans tell me to settle down; I just get so excited to play with my friends that I forget. I love playing with leaves and hopping around with a ball. I love sharing my leaves and balls with my buds, but if I have food, I don't really want my buds around. I'm learning how to walk on a leash (which I'm getting pretty good at!), and I know sit, down, and not to potty in my kennel, and I'm practicing my placing skills real hard! My dream forever family would be one that is very playful and full of love! And lots of treats, that's a must as well.

Details

Good with kids, Good with dogs, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,

Story

Bubbles came to us on Giving Tuesday 2023 from the City of Bakersfield Animal Care Center. Hi! I'm Bubbles. I'm one-third of the Powerpuff Girl's Trio! I love hangin with the other girls. We just play and play! Sometimes we get a little too crazy with our toys (and sometimes our beds and blankies even) and they end up getting torn up. So the humans got us some tough toys, but those aren't as fun as the stuff that tears apart! So, now we gotta be supervised with anything soft. But I love the humans too! Sometimes I can be scared when I'm picked up or touched, but then I come to realize "it's okay, these people are nice to me." But I still can get nervous about it. I love jumping up and giving kisses to the humans. And if one of the other girls is gets pets, then of course I gotta scoot in and get some too! I'm hoping to go to a family that will be caring and patient with me, a family that will keep me busy/active, and give plenty of cuddles!
