Franklin - Labrador Retriever and Mixed Breed Dog Available for Adoption in Ellijay, Georgia

Franklin is a darling Lab mix male who is estimated to be 8 months old and currently weighs 42 pounds. He is available for adoption at the Gilmer County Animal Shelter in Ellijay GA.

Franklin has gone on two overnight Doggy Day Outs with a volunteer, who said he did great and is gaining confidence in the home environment. He tends to hold it until he really needs to go, so house training should come pretty quickly.

🐾Is good around cats
🐾Walks pretty well on a leash for a puppy
🐾Enjoys riding in the car
🐾Is good around cats
🐾Is a gentle little guy who will make some lucky household a wonderful, loyal companion

The Labrador Retriever is a popular and versatile dog breed known for its friendly demeanor and high intelligence. These dogs are often used as guide dogs for the visually impaired, search and rescue dogs, and excellent family pets. Labradors are known for their great sense of smell, strong build, and love of water, making them exceptional hunters and swimmers. With their loyal and loving nature, Labradors have rightfully earned their reputation as one of the most beloved dog breeds in the world.

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.

The shelter accepts dogs and cats and is also the depository for animals that have been picked-up by Gilmer County...
