Frankie is looking for a home with someone who will keep him nice and SLIM we cannot stress how important this is with Frankie’s condition.
He would be ok with one other similar sized dog and no young children.
He would also need regular exercise with his little rubber boots on.
Frankie is an absolute joy , typical Pug cheekiness and he just loves to carry around a soft toy all the time .

If you are going to be around a lot and not let this little boy gain weight then please email

FRANKIE HAS NERVE DAMAGE TO HIS SPINE (OR IT COULD BE PUG MYELOPATHY) THIS MAKES HIM WALK ON HIS BACK CLAWS AND MAKES THEM BLEED.HE WEARS BOOTS ON WALKS OUTSIDE THE KENNELS . FRANKIE MUST BE KEPT ON THE SLIM SIDE DUE TO HIS NERVE DAMAGE

A previous trustee of ours has made this video of why you should adopt a rescue dog. Why not take a look ....

When you rescue a dog, they'll quite often rescue you too.I rescued a dog, Koda, and he definitely rescued me too!This is not a sad song, it's a harsh realit...

Under Assessment
This little guy is Diego he’s believed to be around a year old. Diego like a lot of the little dogs we are getting in has not been well socialised and exposed correctly to the world . Due to this he is fearful and so has a lot to say to keep scary things away from him.
It’s now our job to get this very loveable little lad to feel more confident in himself.
Watch this space .
