About Frankie

Meet Frankie, your future best friend in a fluffy little package! At about 10 weeks old, Frankie is a mix of Border Collie and Labrador Retriever, ready to find his forever home. Frankie and his six siblings, along with their mother, were owner-surrendered to a high-kill shelter in South Texas. With no medical care available, they faced an uncertain fate until we stepped in to save them. Now, Frankie has the chance to grow up safe and loved, surrounded by people who believe in his potential. As a young puppy, Frankie's world is just beginning, and he needs a family that’s prepared for the adventure of raising a growing pup. He will require puppy training and socialization, plus plenty of fun and some chaos along the way. Although we can't predict his adult personality just yet, we know he’s destined to be a wonderful companion. Frankie is good with cats, dogs, and children, making him a perfect fit for a loving family. He’s currently being fostered in Leonardtown, MD, and he’s eager to start his new life filled with puppy adventures, cozy naps, and a lifetime of love. Click apply to start the adoption process.
