Name: Franklin
Nicknames: Big Goon. Stinky Boy.
Breed: French Bulldog mix
Age: ~2 years
Weight: 36 lbs.
Before OMD: Found as a stray and did his hold at the city shelter. We were able to bring Franklin into rescue when a foster opened up his home.
Energy level: Medium. Loves to play, but will also cuddle up through any binge-worthy series…or commercial, really.
Key descriptors: Happy. Affectionate. Friendly. Stubborn. Gorgeous.
What we love most: His giant head and beautiful coat. The way his bottom teeth stick out. How you just look at him and his nub starts wagging. His love for every person he has ever met. The way he often rolls on his back – gator style.
What he loves most: Toys. Treats. Nylabones. Cuddling with his human. Car rides. Going for walks.
You should know: If you are a multi-dog household, he is not the boy for you. He prefers to be the only fur-buddy and does not want to compete for affection or share his space. He also has opinions and is vocal about being alone and being crated, so apartment/condo living isn’t ideal.
What he knows: hmmmm…well he DOES know how to win you heart (so there’s that!) but other than that….sit.
Working on: Jumping. Pulling on leash. Mouthing. Reactivity on leash to other dogs.
Life goal: To be the receiver of all pets and treats.
Dogs: Nope. See above.
Cats: Nope.
Kids: Older kids only please, as he has not met or socialized with any kids since being in rescue.
House-trained: Yes! He has had very few accidents and is a pro if kept on a schedule.
Crate-trained: Ehhh…he dislikes his crate and will loudly let you know.
Franklin is neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. He is available for adoption to residents of IL, CT and surrounding states. If you are interested in adopting, please complete an application from omdrescue.org.

Additional adoption info
One More Dog Rescue (OMD), formerly Ruff Start Happy Tails, requires all potential adopters to fill out an adoption application and agree to a home visit prior to any adoption. Once the application is approved, a meet and greet will be scheduled between the potential adopter (s) and the dog.
When a dog is adopted through One More Dog, an adoption contract must be signed, and we ask that a donation in the amount of $500 ($350 for seniors) be made at the time of adoption to help our rescue cover a portion of the costs we incur through pull fees, vetting, and training.
Applications can be found here: http://www.omdrescue.org/adoptapp.html
*We will adopt to approved applicants (who are able to meet & adopt in person) who live in CT and the surrounding areas: New England, New York, and New Jersey.
