Hey, I’m Franklin! I’m a male Shih Tzu weighing in around 10 pounds and I’m 10 months old. I am a super sweet puppy but I did not get a great start on life as I was not socialized well. I have come a long way in my foster home and am ready for a forever family to love!

My foster family says I am sweet and loveable. I like being in the same room with my loved ones when they are home. I am friendly with other dogs and with humans once I get to know them. I am a bit scared in the beginning, but I will put down that wall and show you love.

I am working on being potty trained, and I am doing well but will need someone home during the day to continue reinforcing that. I did not come to Rescue with any idea about potty training. I am good about using the bathroom outside in the mornings and after I eat. Also, I have not had any accidents in my crate.

I do like belly rubs and will enjoy lots of attention. My foster dad says I have the cutest happy feet dance. When I am happy, my tail wags and I have happy feet. I love chew bones and toys!

I am fully vetted and ready to go to my forever home. I promise I’ll be the best little boy and will love you forever if you adopt me. Could you be my new family? My adoption fee is $175.
