Hi. Frankie here. Yes, that Frankie. The handsome one with the brains, the manners, and the squeaky toy addiction. Let me introduce myself before someone else tries to steal my spotlight. I’m a 1.5-year-old, 55–60 lb neutered gentleman, which basically means I’ve graduated from Puppy University but I still like recess. I’ve got the perfect mix of let’s go on an adventure! and let’s never move from this couch again. Outdoor stuff? I’m your guy. Hiking trails? I will lead the expedition. Fresh air and exploring? Sign me up faster than you can say “Who’s a good boy?” But once we get home… watch this transformation. Adventure dog ➜ Professional Couch Snuggler. It’s a rare talent. My only condition is that my squeaky toy must be invited to the cuddle session. It’s part of my emotional support team. People say I’m extremely well-mannered. I try my best to be a very good boy because I’m also super smart and love learning new things. Got treats? I learn even faster. Coincidence? I think not. Dog-wise, I do well with female dogs. Cats? I’m curious about them. They’re like tiny mysterious roommates. With slow, proper introductions, we might become friends… or at least respectful coworkers. So here’s my dream situation: • A human who likes adventures sometimes • A comfy couch for quality snuggle time • Maybe a nice lady dog friend • A squeaky toy (non-negotiable) • Someone who appreciates a smart, sweet, well-mannered guy If you’re looking for a hiking buddy, couch companion, and all-around good boy, I’m already practicing my “Let’s go home” tail wag. Come meet me. I’ll bring the squeaky toy. If interested, please call the shelter at 231-861-5395 and leave a message to be placed on this dog's adoption list. No obligation, but it reserves your place in line on the list. The shelter will contact individuals as they appear on the list.

All dogs are heartworm tested, receive a DHLPP, flea and tick treatment, and are dewormed.
