Franklin is a work in progress and turning into a lovable guy that has tons of energy. He’ll be a
great partner on jogs, walks, hikes, etc. He self entertains when you need some Non-Franklin
time.
He’s super smart but will need someone that can give him consistent direction and leadership.
We are working on manners and respecting other’s personal space and sharing toys. He’s
coming a long nicely, but like all kids his attention span is short. He is very very food motivated
and will do just about anything for a treat, but don’t hold out on him for too long cause his
excitement will get the best of him. He’s a lovable lug head that just wants someone to love
and play with him.
He would do best with an equally energetic dog of equal size. He gets a long with his 12 lb
foster brother, but hasn’t figured out how to play gently yet or contain his excitement. He
would not do well at this stage with any dog that can not tolerate someone in their personal
space; Franklin is a licker and has not figured out not everyone likes to be licked over and over
on the face or foot or ear etc. He empties the toy bin daily, playing on his bed with them, then
when the bin is empty he plays with that.
Until he learns to control his excitement he’d do best in a household with no small kids or older
adults he might knock over trying to say hi or trying to figure out if they are going to share
whatever they are snacking on. He’s never shown any aggression to people, dogs, or cats, just
a little too much zealous love. He’s definitely a puppy at heart.
