About Frankee

Meet Patriot, affectionately known as Frankie. He’s a sweet and somewhat shy boy who loves the company of people and other dogs. Walking on a leash is a breeze for him, and he’s also a great passenger in the car. Don’t miss his adorable underbite—it’s a real conversation starter. Frankie prefers canned food but is getting accustomed to kibble, and he’s house trained and crate trained. While he might bark a bit at first when crated, he settles down quickly. He doesn't love being left alone, but that’s when crating keeps him safe and cozy for cat naps until his foster family returns. Perfectly sized for apartment living, Frankie is eager to find a family—foster or forever—that will help him build confidence. He’s excited to meet you and ready to share his love!
