What is America's Favorite Pet?
Learn MoreAny treat is a go-to for Frankie! He is what his vet calls "food motivated". His collection of cow toys keeps him company. Often carrying outside his favorite one to be with him during his potty breaks. (his black spots kinda are similar to a cow).
He is such a love bug! A conversation is always had when we take Frankie out in public. Everyone asks what breed he is (and shocked he is 100% Chihuahua). He never barks and loves all people and even wins over those who might not be dog fans. He is currently going through chemo for Lymphoma and has won over every staff member at the oncologist with his goofy, calm ways. Asking for treats and even falling asleep during his treatments.
Frankie is so unique and the only type of Chihuahua I have ever seen in my research. He instantly can bring down anyones blood pressure and increase the good vibes with his cuddles. Only asks for ear scratches and an occasional (dog safe) chicken meatball!
