About FRANNY

Adoption Fee: $350
Chihuahua mix
Age: Young Adult
Sex: Female

PLEASE READ INFORMATION AT THE END OF THE POST FOR ADOPTIONS Franny is a 4 year old, 6.4 pound Chihuahua mix who came from a hoarding situation. She is very timid until she gets to know you but when she does, she will be your shadow. She is affectionate and loves to have her head rubbed and to curl up with you on the couch. Franny is not a fan of being picked up and carried around yet, most likely because she's just not used to that. She sleeps under the covers in her foster family's big bed at night. Franny likes other small dogs and plays with them and does zoomies with them. She has not been around cats or kids since we have had her. We do not believe cats will be an issue, however she will not be happy in a home with kids. Franny does not really play with toys yet, but we don't believe she's had much experience with them. She loves no-hide bones, and treats! She is a bit thin and could stand to put on a pound or two so she gets special meatballs made by her foster mom-and they are a favorite! Franny is working on potty training. She will not, on her own, go out the door to go to the bathroom. Her foster mom has to carry her to the grass. Once there, she does her duty, and all is well. The hoarder dogs did not get to spend any time outside and they are just not sure about the big world out there. With encouragement, and lots of praise, she should eventually feel safe and secure when she is outside. Until then her adopter should be prepared to go outside with her. Other dogs in the home will also be her greatest teachers! She is a tiny little thing, and thin, so she gets cold easily and should wear a sweater or coat outside in the cold weather. If strangers come in the home, she will bark a warning or two and run away. Car rides are ok, walking on a leash yet not so much-so she does need a very secure fenced yard with no gaps or spaces that she could squeeze through. Franny has Demodex (like several other of the little dogs that came out of that home) and she is being treated with special baths. This is not a major condition and will clear up with time. She has been to the vet for a wellness check, is up to date on shots, fecal tested and wormed, heartworm negative, has had a 12-month ProHeart heartworm prevention shot, and is microchipped with a lifetime registration. Her spay will be scheduled at one of our vets and is covered by the rescue. Franny's new family will fall in love quickly. She has such a sweet disposition!
