About This Dog

Franklin's ideal home

Super handsome and fluffy boy Franklin is a 4 year old German Shepherd who likes a gentle sniffy stroll in a quieter area where he can explore at his leisure. He’s not super fussy with toys, but does like to bounce and play around with his favourite people, he also loves a splish splash in the paddling pool, just watch out for the inevitable shake out after. He enjoys a fuss, especially a neck scratch, he will get all wiggly and silly when you get the right spot. He does think he is the perfect size to be a lapdog, although your lap might not agree. This gorgeous gent is looking for his new home now.

Could you be Franklin's perfect match?

Franklin is looking for a home with loving and adopters who can take him on gentle sniffy strolls, who will take the time to help him settle in and give him all the love and attention he deserves. He is a friendly bean once he knows you so could live with secondary school children who can let him approach at his own pace, who will play with him nicely and will give him space to rest when needed. Franklin likes all of the attention to himself, so is looking to be the only pet in the home, he would benefit from having polite and calm walking buddies who will help him to build confidence around socialising with other dogs. Franklin already has a little training under his belt, he knows his name and does a lovely “sit” and “paw”, he could be persuaded to engage in training in short, sweet sessions as long as a tasty treat is on offer. Franklin can settle nicely in the home so could be left for up to 4 hours, any leaving time would need to be built up slowly once he has had time to settle into his new home. Franklin is on daily medication and will need to meet his adopters a few times prior to going home so please bear all of this in mind when applying.
