Frankie is the sweetest of all the pups. He loves attention and to be held and cuddled. When I sit on the floor he is usually the first to come running. He is the biggest boy and him and Pink Lady swap back and forth between who weighs the most. He does like treats but for him, his biggest motivator is affection.
Frankie has been raised on Puppy Culture. Puppy Culture is a comprehensive program for new puppies that aims to optimize a puppy's physical and mental developement. The goal of the program is to raise confident and healthy puppies. Since birth Frankie has been handled, touched, stroked, smooched on and doted over. He has had many experiences to different sights, sounds (thunderstorm, dogs barking, TV, train, vacuum, hair dryer, etc.) and surfaces (grass, carpet, rock, vinyl, water, stairs, balance board, etc). In addition, he has had many opportunities to meet different people and dogs and go to different places. He has been taught to explore and try new things, how to communicate with people through manding, how to be creative in his thoughts and approaches to challenges, and been exposed to grooming equipment. Frankie is pretty even tempered about most things and is usually happy as long as he is getting loved on.
Frankie has been weaned on a raw diet and had his gut biome enhanced with a variety of different foods. Studies have shown this can help with gut health throughout the rest of his life.
Frankie does have a small umbilical hernia that can be repaired at the time of neuter. In addition he has polydactyl (an extra toe) rear feet and double dew claws. His feet do not hinder his ability to get around at all.
Frankie's adoption is $550. Here is what your $550 gets you:
All his puppy vaccines (DAPP and bordetella), approx value $150
Complete wellness exam, microchip, and deworming, approx value $130
Spay and neuter reimburse, value $200
Puppy Culture training from birth to adopt, approx value $300+
Food to take home, approx value $20
A cute, snuggly, perfect puppy, value PRICELESS
