My story

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

Franko is a 7 month old black tri Australian Shepherd puppy that is full of endless energy. He is also very intelligent! He is excellent around children and does not have an aggressive bone in his little body. This boy is the perfect family dog but he needs somebody that will be able to spend lots of time with him.

The foster home he is in has 5 children that range from 5-17 that he loves very much. The children spoil Franko as if he were the king of the castle. He also loves other animals. Franco's foster home has two goats that he likes to herd around, 6 hens, one rooster, two farm cats and lab mix named Junior. Franco enjoys teasing the hens, he is timid around the rooster and he plays non stop with canine buddy Junior.

Franko needs a place with plenty of room to play outside but he needs to be closely monitored because he is very curious and can get himself into trouble. He is very high energy and would do best with a home where he will be able to run and play outside for hours at a time. Exercise for this very active high energy boy is a must!

He is a very obedient and is crate trained. Franco is rarely in his crate but he goes in without hesitation when its time for a break. He also loves to play with his toys. Toilet paper is his best friend so you will have to make sure that your bathroom doors are closed. Franco is a very fast learner, but toilet paper is his cryptonite! This guy learned how to shake in about 5 minutes and he is also a very curious little guy. He is a very loyal dog and tends to shadow the male in the family.

Franco is completely house broken, neutered, micro chipped and current on all his vaccinations. He is being fostered in Central IL. If you would like to make this dude a part of your family, please fill an ADOPTION APPLICATION.
