About Frank

Meet Frank! This lovable 7-year-old, 55-pound Black Labrador Retriever and American Pit Bull Terrier mix adores everyone he meets. Frank has a loving and gentle nature, making him a delight to be around. He is known for his happy disposition, goofy antics, and irresistible cuddles. Although mellow, he can get a bit vocal, howling and barking when left alone due to his separation anxiety, so having a family member at home often will suit him best. Frank thrives on human interaction—he will greet you with a wagging tail and a cheerful demeanor. He's a quick learner and enjoys activities like walking, car rides, and playing fetch in a secure yard. While Frank is dog selective, he responds well to submissive female playmates of his size with proper introductions. He does well with children aged 13 and up who are kind and dog-savvy. Fenced-in areas are a must to keep this energetic guy secure. If you're interested, feel free to get in touch or submit an application. Frank is ready to bring joy into your life!
