About Frankie
Frankie is a 2-year-old Yorkshire Terrier who packs more attitude and charisma into 7 pounds than most dogs twice her size. She has megaesophagus, a chronic condition that requires daily medication, strict meal routines, and close attention to her health—but she’s managed well when her regimen is followed. Frankie enjoys her upright meal times, special treats, and even looks forward to her broth ice cubes, as regular water isn’t on her menu. She needs to be handfed watered-down canned food while sitting up, and she wears a neck donut at all times to keep saliva from pooling. Be prepared for her feeding routine to take about 40 minutes, and staying upright afterwards is key—it helps her avoid dangerous complications like aspiration pneumonia. Frankie gets along with dogs of all sizes but is happiest with small, calm companions. She ignores cats and needs a home without children due to her "spicy" small-dog personality and feeding restrictions. She loves the outdoors, car rides, and being the center of attention—but she does best with careful monitoring during bursts of excitement to avoid choking. Frankie may need some extra care, but she lives a joyful, full life when her needs are met. She is spayed, up to date on vaccines and preventatives, heartworm negative, and microchipped. She’s waiting in Oklahoma City for a diligent, dog-savvy family looking for a one-of-a-kind companion. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
