Frankie Needs a Foster or Adopter to Secure His Ride to Wisconsin on 2/14/26!

Frankie is currently in Arkansas and needs a foster or adopter to secure his spot on the
transport truck to Cedarburg, WI with Mutt Life Dog Rescue on 2/14/26. Without a home
commitment, he won’t be able to make the trip north.

Meet Frankie

Frankie is a super sweet and beautiful 1.5-year-old boy with a gentle heart. He was part of a
severe animal neglect and hoarding situation in Arkansas, where over 20 dogs and cats were
seized. Frankie is one of the last dogs still there, and we are working hard to help him escape
and find the loving home he deserves.

Frankie is friendly with dogs and cats and is likely good with kids, making him a versatile and
loving companion. He is affectionate, calm, and ready to meet his people and show his sweet
Personality. He deserves a safe, stable, and loving environment where he can finally relax and enjoy life.

Currently around 65 pounds, Frankie is neutered, up to date on vaccines, and ready to begin
the next chapter of his life.

Age: About 1.5 years
Gender: Male (Neutered)
Weight: ~65 lbs
Breed: Plot Hound Mix (Best guess)
Spayed/Neutered: Yes
Potty Trained: In progress
Crate Trained: In progress
Leash Manners: Working on it
Good with Dogs: Yes
Good with Cats: Yes
Good with Kids: Likely

Frankie has endured so much already, and now he’s ready to experience the love and stability
every dog deserves. A foster or adopter can make all the difference in giving him the chance at the life he’s been waiting for.

If you can foster or adopt Frankie, please apply today:

Adoption fees include the cost of spay/neuter procedure, up to date dewormer, vaccinations, and heartworm prevention (age appropriate).
NOTE: THE BREED LISTED FOR EACH DOG IS OUR BEST GUESS WITH THE HELP OF OUR VETERINARIANS. AFTER ALL, THIS IS MUTT LIFE DOG RESCUE..

6.) Neuter/spay for puppies: for dogs who are not fixed at the time of adoption, we will reimburse for the procedure once we receive proof of spay/neuter. The procedure MUST be done at HAWS Snip Clinic in Waukesha, WI or Wisconsin Community Veterinarian Center in Madison, WI. If you would like to go through your veterinarian or another location, we will reimburse $150 once we receive proof of the procedure. We recommend spay/neuter around 6 months old.
