Fort Collins, Colorado
April 22nd
male, medium, adult
DESCRIPTION
Fransisco is a regal, handsome boy with a personality to match. Sweet, social, and full of charm, he absolutely loves people and is always happy to make new friends. He enjoys the company of other dogs and would likely do well with a canine companion, but he does seem a bit too interested in cats.
Though he was originally found as a stray, Fransisco clearly knows the comforts of home life—he’s housetrained, walks well on the leash, and carries himself like a true gentleman. With his loving nature and easygoing social personality, he’s ready to settle right into a home where he can be treated like the king he is.
Fransisco is heartworm positive and currently undergoing treatment--if you are interested in having this handsome boy in your life (& on your couch!), please ask us about Foster-To-Adopt!
