Likes:
Franklin loves his brother Woody...he's totally lost without him! They've only been apart once for a few hours since the day Frank joined our family...

Pet-Peeves:
Not getting what he wants exactly when he wants it...we are working on that...LOL

Favorite Toy:
He loves to shred paper...it's funny until he tries to drag a text book through the dog door...

Favorite Food:
Ballpark Franks...go figure!

Favorite Walk:
Around the perimeter of his backyard...gotta make sure there are no c@ts! or squirrel friends hiding in the corners. He took over "Yard Guard" when Lucy passed away!

Best Tricks:
Standing on the living room table and pushing the blinds out of the way so he can see out the window! Very bad...

Arrival Story:
Franklin was dumped outside of a shelter in Reno, NV. He was "sprung" by Golden Gate Basset Rescue. Then it turned out his foster family had too many dogs. We had to drive 2 hours to pick him up without much notice. He started out as a foster and that lasted about a minute and a half after he and Woodstock met. Fast friends instantly! We knew we could never separate them so we decided Frank had found his "forever home"!
