About Frankie

I’m Frankie. Little Body, Big Personality Coming In. Male • 14 lbs • Born 2/14/2026 I’m still figuring everything out, but I’m not shy about it. I explore. I bounce around. I test things with my mouth. That’s how I learn. That’s what puppies do. I came from a place where I didn’t get what I needed, but I’m catching up fast. I love attention. I love being held. I love being part of something. With my mix, I’ll grow into a dog who is both playful and loyal. Right now I just need someone to teach me the right way to do things.
