My name is Frankie!

(born May 2022) I adopted Frankie from a family when she was a year old - she was so calm! She is unfazed by fireworks, sudden noises, or garbage trucks driving by. At the dog park, she loves to run, but, if other dogs start playing too rough, she walks away! She is great with other dogs, my grand kids and strangers, men and women. She loves going to the dog park, is great walking on leash around the neighborhood, and riding in the car. She is a very social dog but I have left her home alone for up to six hours with no problems. (Have I mentioned that she is very smart?) Recently, Frankie started barking at other dogs when both are on leashes; I believe this behavior has more to do with wanting to play than feeling aggressive. Same two dogs off leash and free to play and sniff butts and everything is fine. With a bigger & more active household and more freedom to run and play, this frustration on her leash would fade away. She would love a canine housemate.
