I have a rescue dog named Frankie who has been in boarding on Long Island, New York for just about a year. He is approximately 2 years old, sweet, loving, and quite a handsome boy. He has been through training to learn hand signals, leash and obedience training. He is microchipped, up todate on shots...
He is very loved where he is but he has been there too long and we no longer have the funds to keep him there safe and cared for. Placement for Francis has proved to be difficult and we are in real need of finding him a home in a loving sanctuary where his needs can be met and he can thrive as he is. My rescue organization pulls all breeds from the city kill shelters frequently and Francis, renamed by his trainers was on the euth list so we saved him from the CACC'S high kill shelter, another disposable pit bull. If you have the space for Francis, we are really in need of getting him to his forever home as soon as possible.
Thank you in advance for your consideration.

Frankie's Story:
MEET FRANK HE WAS RESCUED FROM THE CACC LAST YEAR AND WHEN WE GOT HIM HE WAS SO DESTRUCTIVE HE WOULD JUST RIP EVERYTHING APART. WE COULDN'T UNDERSTAND WHERE HE WAS GETTING THIS ANXIETY FROM..WE WOULD TRY TO CORRECT HIM AND IT WAS LIKING HE WAS IGNORING WELL IT TURNS OUT HE WASN'T IGNORING WE WERE IGNORING HIM HE WAS DEAF AND WE DIDN'T KNOW...WE CONTACTED THE SHELTER AND GOT SOME MORE DETAILED INFO THAT THEY HAD NOT TOLD US PREVIOUSLY..FRANKIE WAS BEATEN UP SOME A BUNCH OF KIDS WITH STCIKS..HE CAN'T SEE OUT OF ONE OF HIS EYES..AND CONFIRMED BY OUR VET HE IS DEAF...CAN'T HEAR ANYTHING AT ALL....SO WHAT NOW...WE SENT HIM FOR SIGN LANGUAGE AND BOOT CAMP TRAINING WHICH HE IS STILL CURRENTLY AT ELITE TRAINING AND BOARDING FACILITY IN ISLIP LONG ISLAND..WE ARE PAYING $45.00 A DAY FOR HIM TO STAY THERE BECAUSE WE DON'T THINK HE WILL DO WELL IN OUR SHELTER WHERE HE CAN'T CONTINUE HIS SIGN LANGUAGE TRAINING ON A REGULAR BASIS.
WE ARE AWAITING FOR A SANCTUARY WHERE HE WILL LIVE THE REST OF HIS LIFE ON A FARM..
WE ARE LOOKING FOR SOMEONE TO HELP US WITH HIM.....TO HELP US HELP FRANKIE AND KEEP HIM SAFE AND HAPPY FOR THE REMAINDER OF HIS LIFE... WE DO NOT BELIEVE IN EUTHANASIA UNLESS AN ANIMAL IS SUFFERING AND THERE IS NOTHING MEDICALLY MORE WE CAN DO TO SAVE THEM... OPEN YOUR HEART TO FRANKIE...HE DESERVES IT!!!
Do you think he has to be in a sanctuary or would he do well in a home with a patirnt and experienced adult? My deaf girl was never inside a home the first year of her life...she's a rescue from Puerto Rico. Left alone for even a few minutes she would fly into a panic and tear up the place. A little patience...hand signals...and a very low daily dose of prozac, my girl is the best dog in the world. Still a little barky at strangers, but five years later by far better than most hearing dogs!!
ReplyDeleteIf he def has to be in a sanctuary, have you tried Villalobos Rescue in CA??
