Frankie

Meet Frankie, a charming 4-month-old Boxer pup currently blossoming in his foster home. This sweet boy is a little more timid than his siblings, showing a gentle and sensitive nature. He thrives on companionship and comfort, always wanting to be right by your side. Frankie is learning to explore the world, enjoying the backyard and grass, and is just starting to get the hang of leash walking. He's discovered the joy of squeaky toys and is wonderful with children, though he may be a bit shy around new adults initially.

As a Boxer, Frankie is expected to grow into a loyal, playful, and energetic companion. Boxers are known for their intelligence and eagerness to please, making them highly trainable with positive reinforcement. They are generally good with children and other dogs, especially when socialized from a young age, which aligns with Frankie's current positive interactions with kids and other dogs. This breed requires moderate grooming, with their short coats needing weekly brushing to manage moderate shedding. Their moderate energy level means they enjoy daily walks and playtime, balancing activity with cuddle time.

Frankie is looking for a loving home that can provide patience and continued socialization, ideally with another dog to help him build confidence and come out of his shell. He would thrive in an environment where he receives plenty of affection and gentle guidance. A family with children would be a great fit, given his current positive interactions. He has had his first puppy vaccinations, is microchipped, and dewormed, and will be neutered at 8 months of age at the shelter's cost. If you're ready to welcome a sweet, playful, and loyal companion into your life, Frankie might be the perfect match!
