We adopted Frankie on October 24th, 2013 and we can't thank Little Mutts enough for our newest family member!!!
Frankie settled in very quickly, but being from Texas originally, there was definitely a period of adjustment to the colder temperatures of Calgary. In fact, the first time he saw snow, he wouldn’t step on it—he stood still and stiff and whimpered for a good minute before taking further steps. Now he’s a seasoned professional with the snow, bounding through it like a rabbit!
Initially, we had some difficulties with him biting for attention or nipping too hard when playing, but with patience we’ve got him to stop—it’s only friendly licks now! He has also learned how to shake-a-paw, and now he’s working on learning how to roll over!
At home Frankie loves to cuddle with his people, play with his moose toy, and to nap in his bed or on the couch. He enjoys going for walks every day, meeting new dog friends, and exploring the dog park.
He is a perfect little gentleman and a joy to be around. We love Frankie very much and we are so grateful to Little Mutts for connecting us with our little prince!
