Frank may be cute enough to make anyone melt, but he’s looking for adopters who truly understand dog body language and are willing to give him the space he needs to feel safe. Since we don’t know much about his past or experience in a home, his new family should be patient, thoughtful, and ready to help him settle in at his own pace.
Frank would do best in a calm home, and if there are kids, he’d prefer them to be older and respectful of boundaries. With gentle guidance, positive reinforcement, and plenty of tasty treats, Frank is sure to learn that the world isn’t such a scary place after all.
If you’re ready to offer kindness, structure, and lots of love, Frank is ready to meet you - and maybe even become your new best friend.
If you are interested in adopting Frank, please visit the shelter during our adoption hours.
