Franck is a young Jack Russell Terrier mix with a playful spirit and a very loving personality. He is a social and happy puppy who enjoys being around people and other dogs. He gets along well with dogs, children, men, and women. Franck is very playful and absolutely loves being petted and receiving constant affection. Human attention makes him feel safe and content. Franck was found abandoned in the trash, suffering from severe mange that badly damaged his tail. Sadly, he lost part of his tail due to the condition. Now healthy and full of life, Franck is ready to leave his past behind and start a new chapter with a family who will love him, play with him, and give him the care he deserves.
Ideal Home
Franck would thrive in a home with a fenced backyard and an active family that enjoys outdoor activities. He needs a family with the intention to truly rescue a dog, understanding their need for protection and education. Previous experience with dog behavior and training is preferred, or a willingness to hire a trainer. He needs a family with high tolerance and patience for rescued puppies.
Ongoing Health
Franck was treated for severe mange that resulted in the loss of part of his tail. He has been spayed/neutered, vaccinated (DHPPI, Rabies, Bordetella), dewormed, and microchipped. He tested negative for Heartworm and 4DX, and is on monthly preventive protection. He has a Health Certificate and vaccine booklet.
Training & Support
Franck is not house-trained. Potential adopters must understand that rescued dogs may require an adjustment period and may have fears or anxieties due to past experiences. Patience, understanding, and establishing a routine are crucial for building trust and strengthening the bond.
