About Nori & Frankie

Nori & Frankie are a bonded pair looking for a home together. Their current family is working with the rescue to find them a loving new place, and both are fixed and up to date on Rabies and Bordetella. Frankie, a Boston Terrier, is affectionate, nosey, and has a real talent for snoozing—he naps most of the day and makes it clear when he needs to go out, standing by the door. He likes all kinds of food and tends to tear up his toys; sturdy bones or ropes are best. Nori, a Jack Russell mix, is loyal and gentle. He loves attention and thrives on pets, especially after a session chasing squeaky tennis balls. Nori is sensitive to loud noises and might get spooked if something is dropped but otherwise listens well and enjoys cuddling up with Frankie. Both are house trained, get along with kids, cats, and other dogs, and are looking for a new family that will keep them together. The new adopter should contact the current owner for their vetting records. These boys' loyal bond will add a special spark to any home. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now!
