About Sinatra

Meet Sinatra, affectionately known as “Frankie.” This gentle, cuddly three-year-old Chihuahua loves nothing more than being right on your lap or snuggled next to you. Weighing in at thirteen pounds, he thrives on human attention and long cuddle sessions. Sinatra is fantastic with other dogs, enjoying his time at daycare with furry friends. He’s potty trained, adapts well when left alone, and is settling into his new life beautifully. While he’s still gaining confidence on the leash and occasionally needs encouragement, he’s eager to learn and improves with positive reinforcement. His ideal home is calm to moderate, where someone can devote time to cuddles and leash training. While he would thrive as an only dog, Sinatra would love a friendly dog sibling. He’s also a great fit for apartment living. A foster shared, “Sinatra has so much love to give and would make a wonderful, loyal companion. All he really wants is a loving home and a cozy spot.” Sinatra has previously tested positive for heartworm but has been treated successfully. Ready to give Sinatra the loving home he deserves?
