My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Handsome. Wigglemiester. Adorable. Licking Machine. Soft. Playful. Comical. Brave.

The list of positive adjectives describing this tiny, 1.5 year-old, 3.5 lb. boy is long... but there are some that border on the not so positive... blind in one eye. Horribly scarred from an animal attack. Permanent hair-loss forming a reverse mohawk on his back. FRANKIE was chomped (and we mean CHOMPED!) by a much bigger dog during an animal attack; sending him scrambling away in such a terrified state that he actually scraped the skin clean off his back passing under a fence! OUCH!! Although it eventually sloughed off and is now almost completely healed, FRANKIE's scars will bear witness to that day's terrors forever. Happily for us all, FRANKIE's scars seem only skin deep as his spirit shines brightly, indeed! He loves to play with anything moving... much to his foster-cat sibling's dismay in this video (http://youtu.be/I2gwID5OTQ8).

We hope you take the time to meet this little survivor! Let's add more positive adjectives to FRANKIE's ever growing list!
