Frank

Hey! My name is Frank, but you can also call me Franklin if you’re feeling fancy. I am a French bulldog, and I am five years old. My birthday is April 12th!

 

My dad got me when I was just a puppy. He had larger dogs all of his life and wanted something “low maintenance”. I fooled him into thinking I was, and now I am a spoiled city dog who has six beds, goes to work with my mom every day, and has a bandana for every holiday and celebration there is.

 

I love being around people, basking in the sun, and chewing on my green bone. Sometimes I will scratch at your leg to get your attention, and you’ll be my best friend if you allow me to sit with you on the couch.. I’ll just need a little help getting up there first. My favorite thing to do is snuggle and make people laugh.

 

When I am napping, I snore very loud, so I hope you don’t mind.

 

I hope my mom and I get to meet you soon!
