Fostered in Georgetown

Meet Frankie! This sweet boy is a 6 year old Chihuahua mix, weighing 8 pounds. He was surrendered to the rescue when his owner went into hospice. He is now ready to find that special someone or family who is able to offer him a brand new start.

Frankie is playful and friendly, however he can be timid with new introductions. Frankie would do well as an only dog or in a home with other dogs. He gets along nicely with the other dogs in his foster home, and often follows their lead.

Frankie walks well on his leash and loves going for walks. He gets excited to go wherever his foster family is going. As much as he loves adventures, he also loves to cuddle up on the couch and have a nap. Frankie would do best in a home where someone can offer him companionship throughout the day, and regular outdoor breaks to support his housetraining.

Frankie is moderately active, enjoying shorter walks and playing with toys. He can get overexcited and protective when playing with his toys. For this reason, a family with older, dog savvy kids would be best. Frankie can be vocal at times, so he may not be suited for apartment living.

Frankie is an adorable little dog with the softest coat, and would make a wonderful best friend or addition to a family. Please consider giving him a loving home.
