About Frankie (Terrier) in Seattle, WA 98125

Frankie is waiting for you at Dog Gone Seattle Rescue in Seattle, WA 98125. Animal Profile: Frankie is a 35-pound, 18-month-old Border Collie, Australian Cattle Dog, Australian Shepherd, and Terrier mix whose genetics run true. This smart, athletic girl lives for a game of fetch and has the energy and enthusiasm to keep up on hikes, runs, and all of life's adventures. Frankie has spent the past several months working with Gina at Double Down Dog Training, where she has lived and learned alongside a structured pack environment. Thanks to her training and continued development, Frankie is ready to find a home that understands and appreciates the unique qualities of herding breeds. Playful, attentive, and highly toy-motivated, Frankie loves having a job to do and thrives when given both mental and physical outlets. She enjoys being with her people and forming strong bonds, but she isn't a dog who craves constant affection. In fact, excessive attention can make her a bit uncomfortable. Frankie prefers relationships built on trust, activity, and shared experiences. Her ideal home would be an active adult household with previous herding-breed experience. She would love owners who enjoy training, outdoor activities, and engaging with a dog that is both intelligent and driven. While she has an active nature, Frankie can do well in an apartment provided her exercise and enrichment needs are consistently met. Frankie is house-trained, crate-trained, and rides well in the car, making her an easy companion for everyday life and weekend adventures alike. If you're looking for a loyal, athletic partner who is ready to join you on the trail, at the park, or anywhere a ball can be thrown, Frankie may be the perfect match.
