Franklin

Name: Franklin “Frank”
Breed: Dachshund
Age: 8
Kids: 16+
Dogs: Yes — Franklin would do well with another laid-back dog to show him the ropes. He may not engage in play, but he would love a buddy to take naps with.
Cats: Unknown
Crate-Trained: Yes
House Trained: Yes. Once Franklin gets into his routine, he is fully house-trained. He might have an occasional accident as he adjusts but he is doing great with going outside.
Leash Manners: Franklin has never been walked on a leash and is still learning. However, he loves to be outside and explore everything. He will sniff whatever his nose can reach.
Personality: After spending his whole life in a cage, used over and over for breeding, Franklin is looking for a loving home that will teach him that the world is a good place. He is slowly learning the good things about being a dog. He loves spending time outside and hanging out with his doggy foster sibling. After a day or so he becomes more comfortable and loves to explore. When he thinks you aren’t looking, his fun personality comes out and he can be found rolling around on his back having the best time. He is very shy and gets nervous when you go near him or try to pet him, but he does let you pet him and loves treats. Franklin also enjoys going on adventures.

Swiss Roll is a true Pointer in nature and will watch birds and small animals, as he “points” towards them. Swiss Roll needs to be active and have stimulation, but he also is a happy couch potato. He only needs short spurts of activity to satisfy his body and mind, daily.
