Franklin Adopted

Franklin enjoys chilling out on a summer day under a shade tree. He especially loves it when one of our partner shelter volunteers is there to give him a tummy rub. Franklin is approximately 2 years old in these pictures taken June 5, 2010 in Arkansas.

A nice lady saved Franklin from an abusive home and brought him to our partner shelter. He has adjusted well and is a super sweet little guy. The volunteers just love him. Franklin does great with the other dogs. He rides ok in the car and is alright on the leash. Franklin seems to be housebroken and also uses the papers if our director isn't home in time to let them out. He does enjoy cuddling with people or with Crissy, a Chihuahua. The two of them are pretty close. Franklin sleeps in bed with our director and seems to enjoy sleeping on top of her head.

Franklin is up-to-date on shots, is neutered, and has been tested for Heartworms/Lyme/Ehrlichia. He weighted 5.3 pounds when he went to the vet on May 5, 2010. Franklin is on HW preventative. .Franklin is up-to-date with routine shots, house trained and spayed/neutered.

This dog is available unless it is marked as Pending, meaning "pending adoption".

If this Dog is marked Urgent, it is because the Arkansas shelter where he/she resides is overfull. Please do not ask local shelters to take this dog in, there are many reasons why they cannot. Please also do not send us letters about why we euthanize, AHR does not euthanize, but the shelters we work with do. We are a rescue and we pull as many dogs as we have foster homes and funds for. We, like the shelter, do not have unlimited resources. Please, please: foster, adopt or sponsor a dog to help save their lives.
