Story
Meet Flufferkins! Flufferkins is a 13 lb, 6 year old Bichon Frise. She spent the first half of her life being bred at a puppy mill. She is learning that people are safe and is coming out of her shell. Flufferkins hasn’t learned the joy of toys or playing yet. With some patience a confident dog in the home, she will learn. In terms of house training, Flufferkins has learned to go outside when the door is opened and comes back in when it’s time. She will need routine and rewards to help her get it down.

Story
Meet Plum Precious! Plum Precious is a quiet 6-year-old, 15 lb Bichon Frise. She comes from a puppy mill, so she's apprehensive about most things, but give her the chance and she'll frolic about the yard with much delight! She has done well in her foster home with loud children and her foster sister, Miss Scarlett. Plum loves food - especially cheese! She's still learning how to "dog" and doesn't quite get the purpose of a leash, squeaky toys or balls... But give her a crinkly snack toy and she's on it. Plum also loves to snuggle up with a blankie or towel and is good about using puppy pads. She likes observing things, so she doesn't need to be in the middle of the action, but if she's ignored for too long she'll bark for some affection. Plum truly is a precious, curious, little thing who will make your heart sing. Plum Precious is fostered in the Cincinnati area. Her adoption fee is $450.00.

Story
Beignet is a delicate little soul who is just beginning to discover that the world can be a safe and kind place. This 1-year-old, 12lb Bichapoo (Bichon & Poodle) is still learning how to be a dog. New sights, sounds, and people can feel overwhelming to her. She will need a patient and understanding adopter who is willing to move at her pace. Beignet is not the kind of dog who will immediately run up for cuddles - but with time, consistency, and gentle encouragement, she will slowly begin to trust. Watching her take those small, brave steps is incredibly rewarding for someone who understands shy dogs. She would do best in a quiet home with a confident, friendly dog who can help show her the ropes and build her confidence. A secure, fenced yard is important as she is not yet comfortable on a leash and will try to retreat if frightened. Beignet is looking for a calm, committed home that will give her the time she needs to blossom. In return, you'll get to witness a truly special transformation as she learns what it means to feel safe and sound. Beignet is fostered in the Cincinnati area. Her adoption fee is $450.00.

Eclair is a tender-hearted 1-year-old, 15 lb Bichapoo (Bichon & Poodle) who is still learning that the world isn't as scary as it seems. Everything around her feels new and overwhelming, and her first instinct when frightened is to find a safe place to hide. Eclair will need a patient and compassionate adopter who understands that trust takes time. She is not yet comfortable with walking on a leash. Sudden movements or unfamiliar situations can cause her to panic and run. A secure, fenced yard is essential to keep her safe while she continues to build confidence. Eclair would thrive in a quiet home with a confident, gentle dog who can help guide her and show her that life can be safe and predictable. When she's feeling curious, she has the most adorable head tilt that gives a glimpse of the sweet, gentle dog she is becoming. Eclair is looking for a calm, committed home willing to let her grow at her own pace. For the right person, helping her come out of her shell will be incredibly meaningful and rewarding. Eclair is fostered in the Cincinnati area. Her adoption fee is $450.00.

You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Max and Sophie.  They are a bonded pair of Bichon Frise mixes that are 11 years old.  They are litter mates that have been together their entire lives.  Max and Sophie have just lost the only home they have known when their owner moved into a nursing home. This sweet duo are looking for a loving person who will adopt them together.   They keep each other company, so they are easier than having only one dog!Max weighs 9.6 pounds and is in good health.  Sophie weighs 9.2 pounds and is also in good health except she is partially blind due to cataracts. (She can see light and dark, just no detail).  Both are neutered and UTD on their vaccines.  They are scheduled for a dental cleaning on June 9 which will be covered by the rescue.These two are sweet and friendly as can be.  They cuddle together like two peas in a pod when they sleep at night.  They love to go on walks!  Sophie charges ahead on her lead, she doesn't seem bothered at all by her limited sight!  Once she learns where everything is in her home, she will maneuver around just fine.  They both LOVE being outside in their foster's fenced yard....so many things to smell and the sunshine feels great!  Max is the more outgoing of the pair, but once Sophie gets to know you, she will demand to be cuddled!!  Both are snuggle bugs that want to be with their person.  They are very friendly pups.FOSTER UPDATE:  After 2 weeks with us, Sophie has graduated with honors in house training!!  Max still occasionally wants to lift a leg in the house so he gets a B-.  Both of them have made huge gains in this important area.  We are very proud of them!! Foster update #2:  Max is officially house trained too!!  They are so friendly and such 'easy keepers'!!Can you provide a loving home for Max and Sophie?  Fill out an application and let's get the ball rolling!***Max and Sophie are eligible for our Senior to Senior adoption program.  If the adopter is over 60 and uses our vet, the rescue will cover their vet bills.  You provide the home, food, toys and LOVE.  Frankies Furry Friends will pay their vet bills.  This special program is a WIN-WIN for everyone.Adoption Fee to defray vet costs:  $100Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.June 29, 2026, 3:56 pm

Brooklyn is 5 years old, very smart and affectionate. We got her as a puppy and she has been with us ever since. She would do best in a home where the owners can spend a lot of time with her. She loves attention. She has allergies and has to be on an allergy medication. She has to be groomed on a regular basis around every 6 to 8 weeks. We just want her to go a loving home, and someone that can provide her with the care she needs.

These pups are in Cincinnati, Ohio too!

Story
Rehoming a pet is a deeply difficult and emotional decision, but it is the most responsible choice when a dog's needs no longer match your lifestyle or capabilities. My Shih Tzu might need a new owner I'm facing severe time constraints, persistent behavior issues, and major changes in my health and living situation. Bosco is 28 months old, his birthday is 2/23/22. He came into my life when he was 9 months. I believe Bosco would do great with a new owner who has penalty of time to meets his needs and if there's another dog that's friendly and needing a buddy, he does get along with a cat. His favorite foods are Cesar's wet loaf and puppy chow dry food. Bosco is an escape artist, he will run, however, he always come back. Why? On his walks he will definitely mark his scent. He very unusual for pooping, he looks and smells for a special spot in the grass, parks, etc. before he poop. I would suggest a full body harness for walking, and allow him time to learn his new neighborhood.

Chester can be a little vocal when meeting new people and may bark at first, but once he gets to know you, his loving personality shines through. He’s an affectionate dog who enjoys attention and will happily jump up to say hello. Chester loves playing with his toys, enjoys spending time with his people, and gets along well with other dogs. If you’re looking for a fun, friendly companion with lots of love to give, Chester may be the perfect match for your family. Chester is neutered, 4DX negative, vaccinated, microchipped, and current on ProHeart 12 and Bravecto. His adoption fee is $400. To apply to adopt Chester, visit www.adoggie4you.org.

Story
You can fill out an adoption application online on our official website.Meet Quinn! Quinn's story is one of resilience, healing, and unconditional love. She was found abandoned on the streets alongside her sister in heartbreaking condition. Severely neglected, Quinn was covered in painful mats, suffering from extensive hair loss caused by poor nutrition and flea infestation, and struggling with serious eye issues that had gone untreated for far too long. Since coming into rescue, Quinn has received extensive veterinary care and has been under the supervision of a local veterinary ophthalmology specialist. After numerous tests, treatments, and medications, we now know that Quinn has severe chronic dry eye, a condition common in her breed. Unfortunately, this has resulted in significant scarring of both corneas. The good news is that Quinn's right eye is responding well to treatment, and with lifelong medical management, her vision can likely be preserved. Her left eye has faced additional challenges, including a corneal ulcer and infection, but after completing her course of antibiotics and ongoing care, she has shown remarkable improvement. Despite everything she has endured, Quinn remains one of the sweetest dogs you could ever hope to meet. She is calm, gentle, affectionate, and happiest when curled up in your lap. Quinn is not a barker, gets along wonderfully with other dogs, and has an easygoing, laid-back personality that makes her a joy to have around. Quinn is spayed, fully vaccinated, microchipped, 4DX negative, and current on ProHeart 12 heartworm prevention and Bravecto flea and tick prevention. We have not yet tested Quinn with cats or children, so those situations are currently unknown. Adoption Fee: $400 To apply for Quinn, please visit www.adoggie4you.org. Quinn is currently located in Texas but can be transported to Washington, Portland (Oregon), Minneapolis, Milwaukee, Chicago, Des Moines, Omaha, Cincinnati, Lexington (Kentucky), and locations along the East Coast for an additional $250 transport fee.
