Story
Frankie is an 11-month-old female Goldendoodle weighing about 24 pounds. She absolutely loves people and greets everyone like a long-lost friend. Frankie is a very active, enthusiastic girl who is always ready for playtime and adventure.She gets along well with other dogs and enjoys having canine friends to play with. Frankie also knows how to play fetch and would happily chase a ball as long as you’re willing to throw it! Because she’s still young and full of excitement, she can be a bit bouncy and is currently working on improving her leash manners.Frankie is also still figuring out potty training, so she will need a patient home willing to continue helping her learn her routines. Her ideal home would be with an active family that can give her plenty of exercise, playtime, and guidance as she continues to grow.

Check out our Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok for more pictures & videos of our adoptable dogs! To sponsor my trip to WI, go to  www.tailwaggers911.com  for more info!   ***I am able to go home to my forever family AFTER MARCH 25!!! You get a 5 day trial with me in your home. Put in your application soon!***   Please help me get out! I am currently in a place where there are lots of unwanted dogs and not all of us here get the chance I might have to leave! But in order to help me out of here to catch the ride to WI on March 13th and arrive on March 14th, I need *both* a sponsor, and a WI foster home *or* a WI adopter! I have a place for now, but I can't stay here forever and I am worried. The rescue has put a hold on me to save my spot on the trip up north to WI, but now they need YOUR help to get me there - don't wait!!! Updated: 2/25/26 Dog Name: Twix Sex: Female Estimated Breed: Golden Retriever Mix Date of Birth: 1/23/2026 Approximate Weight: 3-5 lbs Litter Name: Candy Litter Spay/Neuter Status: Not yet (too young) Description: These precious babies fit their names already- they are sweet as can be!! As they grow their little personalities will begin to shine! They will likely have a demeanor similar to their momma dog (sweet, gentle, smart and well mannered). These babies will melt your heart, they are snuggly and so very soft! Adoption Fee: $750We are a Wisconsin state licensed dog rescue -WI# 402433   ***We do not have a central adoption center at this time. All our dogs are in private foster homes within WI. At this time, we only place our dogs in areas of WI. The breed of our dogs is our best guess with the help of our veterinarians. Our Weight Classes are as follows: 0- 25lbs - Small 26- 45lbs - Medium 46-89 - Large 90+ X-large If you are adopting an adult dog, which we consider 6 months of age or older, your adoption fee includes the following: Spay/Neuter, Rabies and Distemper shots, dewormed, flea & tick preventative, heartworm tested and microchipped. If you are adopting a dog younger than 6 months of age, the dog will be up to date on the shots as per the dogs age. The dog will be dewormed, flea/tick preventative and microchipped. We only spay/neuter our dogs once they're at least 6 months old. If you decide to adopt a younger dog than 6 months, they will need to be spayed/neutered by your veterinarian when they are between 6 to 8 months old. Proof that the spay/neuter has been completed will need to be submitted to Tailwaggers911. Once proof of the spay/neuter has been received, we will refund $100 of your adoption fee via Venmo, PayPal or have a check in the mail within 15 days. Once you are approved with our rescue, you can meet any one of our dogs within the fosters home. If you are interested in the dog you met, you can take the dog home under our mandatory foster to adopt program. You receive 5 days to see if the dog is the right fit for your home. If it is, we will conduct the home visit and finalize adoption. If it is not, it is returned to the foster. We are happy to find you another dog that meets your needs in your home. If a dog is listed as ADOPTION IN PROCESS, a family has met the dog and planning on adopting the dog after the home visit has been conducted. We always suggest sending in an application for a dog because there are times where the dogs are given back to us under the foster to adopt program. There are many reasons dogs are returned but normally it just was not the right fit for all.Please go to WWW.TAILWAGGERS911.COM under HOW TO ADOPT . We have an online application that is very easy to fill out. February 27, 2026, 11:42 pm
