Frankie's Story

Apply to Adopt Me!<br/>Meet Frankie, a 3-year-old, 56-lb., one of a kind bulldog who is full of love and absolutely adores anyone he comes into contact with. This meatball is eager to please and will gladly run around with you, or simply just snooze. He curiously checks out what everyone is up to and is happy to be any part of it, whether it be fast paced, or super chill. He can be excited to play after naps or family returning home, but quickly calms and basks in your presence.<br/><br/>Frankie gets along great with other dogs - from low and to high energy - as well as cats. He is so good that he just watches the rescue pig and chickens from his side of the gate. While he's content just napping next to kitties and even sharing a water bowl with them, he can also be excitable when the kitties show off their zoomies, yet is respectful of commands - as well as the kitties' attempts at letting him know when they aren't interested, he even lets the outside/barn kitties rub back and forth and nudge him. He has not been around kids during his time with us, but with his good nature we suspect he would be fine, and we would be happy to do a premeet if the home has young kids.<br/><br/>This low rider good boy shows a great amount of comfort in pleasing his people. He is 100% house trained and appreciates a decent potty routine. He sleeps peacefully through the night (with the exception of when the kitties midnight shenanigans startle him lol). He's patient, sits on verbal command, as well as visual/hand signal commands, shakes paw, goes outside when offered and returns when called.<br/><br/>Frankie loves playing and throwing around his favorite toys in the yard - any ball he can grab with his mouth, as well as just soaking up the sun and watching the wildlife. He would do best with a fenced yard that allows him the joys of that freedom. He also loves long walks and is great on a leash, looks forward to peaceful rides in the car - with a little help getting in and out due to his shorty legs, and all around enjoys just hanging out while he steeps in all of the love, attention and household comforts. The joy Frankie brings everywhere he goes and to everyone he meets is so great and he strives every day to be the best boy he can be!<br/><br/>Frankie came to Lil Rascals after he was taken to the shelter where he faced euthanasia due to medical reasons. He was found tied up and abandoned by his owner at an apartment complex. He had a urethral prolapse, which was corrected by our vet with immediate surgery. He had double ear infections and crudely cropped and thickened ear flaps. He was found to be heartworm positive and is on the slow kill protocol, which we can explain that process to any interested applicant. He can enjoy regular activities. Heart worm disease is contracted from an infected mosquito and can not be transmitted to another dog.<br/><br/>But even with all of the neglect this sweet boy has endured, he is still just the best boy and deserves a lifetime of love, commitment and comfort. If you live in the Central Florida/Orlando area and believe you have the perfect home for Frankie, complete an app and tell us more about your family.
