Description

Meet Frankie!   At the tender age of 12, Frankie is as beautiful as she is affectionate. She's looking for a forever home where her alone time is kept to a minimum, there's always a soft lap available, and, of course, there's plenty of room for her in the big bed. Frankie absolutely loves attention—and, if we're being honest, she expects it! She would be happiest as the one and only dog in the home, where she can soak up all the love she deserves.  She does co-exist with the other small older dogs in her foster home, but no interaction.  High-energy dogs make her nervous. If you're looking for a companion to accompany you on every car ride, Frankie may not be the perfect match. Car trips just aren't her thing. What she does enjoy are leisurely walks—or more accurately, leisurely sniffs! Frankie loves exploring the world at her own pace, carefully investigating every interesting scent she finds. After all, sniffing is great mental exercise! Frankie recently had a dental cleaning and a senior wellness blood panel. Her bloodwork showed mildly elevated liver enzymes, and our veterinarian has recommended repeating the panel in December. Her adopter should be comfortable following up with this testing and understand that, depending on the results, she may eventually need prescription food, supplements, or other supportive care. Frankie will bark briefly when left alone, so a home rather than an apartment or shared-wall living situation would likely be the best fit. This sweet girl has experienced more change than any senior dog should. As far as we know, her current foster home is already the third home she's had. That's why we're committed to finding the perfect family—one that will cherish her for the rest of her life. If you're looking for a devoted companion who wants nothing more than to love you, be loved in return, and spend her golden years by your side, Frankie may just be your perfect match. Due to her dislike of car rides, we would like to keep home visits/adoption to within one hour of Taunton, MA Adoption Fee:  $300.00 Apply only at:  www.paw-affectionrescue.org
