My story

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

Why Choose me?

I first noticed Franklin sitting in the very back of his kennel where no one could reach him. I could tell from afar that he was a very handsome guy, but he was a little uneasy about coming to the front of his pen. He may have been too shy to come up to me, but he had no problem with me going back there to him. He didn’t mind me slipping the leash on him, and he walked out with me effortlessly. The first thing I noticed about Franklin once I had him outside was just how wonderfully he walks on a leash. He is calm, and he walked right next to me with such ease. I feel that Franklin has been trained well, and his spotless pen probably indicates that he has been housebroken. Unlike many dogs who are loud and rowdy when they first arrive at the shelter, Franklin was on his best behavior and minded his manners. Franklin has long, black hair with a subtle tint of red. His face is long and handsome, and all I wanted to do was kiss his soft head to reassure him that everything is okay. I hope Franklin’s owners will know to reclaim him, but if they do not show up, Franklin is all yours! Come check out this calm and collective boy, and just remember to please be slow with him and let him earn your trust.
