ABOUT ME: Hi, I'm Franklin - I'm a really shy guy at first! When I get scared I have learned that my bark will make people go away, so I use my bark to sound scary. But I'm really just a sweet guy when you get to know me! My friends here at the shelter are helping me learn that I don't need to be so scared of people, but I still have more to learn. I'm looking for a forever family who can help me come out of my shell and help me learn to love EVERYONE.
DREAM HOME: I'm pretty small, so I won't take up too much space in an apartment or a house.
KIDS: I've never met a kid before. It would be best to keep them over 8, and bring them to meet me if you can!
DOGS: I LOVE dogs! In fact, it might be really helpful if you had another dog to teach me the ropes.
APPOINTMENT: Scheduled due to location
