Frank (aka "Frankie Doodle Dandy") is a spunky and lovable 2yo (estimated) that is ready to meet his forever family. He was found as a stray just before Thanksgiving, and wouldn't let us get anywhere near him for the first couple days. As he's warmed up to us we've found that he's 50lb of pure snuggles and would prefer to be next to somebody getting pets 100% of the time. He's great on a leash (no pulling or reactivity), gets along well with other dogs, and is potty trained. He sleeps in the crate at night, and after a few minutes of whining, he settles in for the night and sleeps without a peep for 8+hrs. We haven’t seen him around babies/toddlers but he is gentle with kids 5yo+.
We've loved watching his personality flourish as he's settled into our home over the last several weeks. He's still figuring out toys and is not super interested in them, but is perfectly happy chewing on a bone for an hour. His foster humans work from home so he's used to getting some attention throughout the day, but is fine for longer stretches in the crate here and there (up to 6hrs). He's very food motivated and is always excited for a snack. Frank loves when we sing, often jumping up and "dancing" on his hind legs.
Frank is being fostered in the Huntsville, Alabama area. He is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines. If you are interested in meeting him please fill out a non-binding application and his foster parents will be in touch.

Our adoptable animals are fostered in loving homes throughout Huntsville, Alabama and the surrounding area. Because we do not operate a physical shelter, meet-and-greets are arranged by appointment only—typically after an adoption application has been submitted and approved.
For out-of-town adopters, we’re happy to offer virtual meet-and-greets to help you get to know your future furry family member before adoption or transport.

More about this rescue
Friends of Rescue is headquartered in Huntsville, Alabama with transport locations throughout the Great Lakes and New England. FOR is a volunteer-run, 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded in 2009.
Our mission is to save adoptable dogs and cats from overcrowded Southern shelters where limited space, minimal funding, and high intake rates often lead to euthanasia.
We are not professional trainers or animal behaviorists—just dedicated individuals working together to give these animals a second chance. Every pet in our program lives in a loving foster home and receives age-appropriate veterinary care while awaiting adoption.
Our ultimate goal is to match each animal with a committed, compassionate individual or family who will provide a FORever home.
