Frannie

Frannie is the kind of dog who makes an impression—between her soulful eyes and her signature hound bay, she’s not one to go unnoticed. She’s a gentle, easygoing walker with great leash manners and a big appreciation for slow strolls and sunny spots.<br/><br/>Frannie gets along with other dogs and enjoys calm canine company, but she’s had some ups and downs in adoptive homes. She’s been returned more than once—once for humping her canine housemate, and twice for conflicts in the home that may have been linked to resource guarding, particularly around food or resting places. The concerns were directed toward a female in the home, and though we haven’t seen similar behavior here, it’s something to be aware of.<br/><br/>She’s been with us at Open Door since 2021, and her longest stay in a home was just two months. We know she’s capable of so much more—but she needs the right person to help her shine. Frannie may do best in an adult-only home, ideally with a single person—possibly a man—who understands hounds, has experience with resource guarding, or is open to guidance and structure.<br/><br/>Frannie’s not one to stay quiet when she has something to say—she’s a barker by nature and would love a home that doesn’t mind a little background commentary.<br/><br/>In return, you’ll get a loyal, expressive companion who’s happiest lounging near her person, sniffing the breeze, and being included in your daily rhythm.<br/><br/>If interested, please fill out a preliminary at odas.org/canine and someone will contact you to schedule your visit.
