Description
Frankie was surrendered to us as he was too big and strong for his elderly family. He has been to dog parks and did well except for one encounter with one dog. On walks he would pull and bark at other dogs, but we are unsure if that's because he wanted to meet them or not. When the grandchildren came to visit he did well and would actually become depressed when they left. He does require training as he has never been to training. Training is absolutely a must as it teaches good manners, obedience and creates a bond with his new family.

Wow, this has sure been an action packed couple of days! My Mommy and Daddy couldn't handle a big fellow like me so they brought me to something called a rescue and that sure is how I feel. I went home with a lady that I've become quite attached to, and she makes me feel safe, which I needed and didn't even know it. She's introduced me to her fur babies and I sure do like to play with her dogs. She says I'm a sweet baby in a big fuzzy bear costume! I've also gotten a bath and blow out, which I didn't like very much, but she told me I was a very good boy during it, so that's cool! She took me to the vet for a checkup and they loved me there, I was scared but I just tried to hide. I like squeaky toys, frisbees and treats, especially the treats - which I take very gently! I can "come" and "sit" but I will need a lot more training because I'm still a baby! Do you think you could handle the training for a big strong puppy like me? I'd really love to make some new friends!
