Allow me to introduce myself, I'm the handsome goodest boi known as Franc, which is a little odd owing to the fact that I'm a German Shepherd! But I like to subvert expectations, I do! And I don't look like a Hans, I knew a Hans, once, back in the day... nice chap, but not a lot going on in the noggin'! And I'm as smart as a I handsome, if you don't mind me saying. So, I don't want to bore you with a sob story, because I'm a strong dog, and I'm not gonna break down and cry... but see, I had a family. For eight years, and then... well, I'm not as fit as I once was, these old hips are starting to give me some issues. But no one is perfect, right? And there has to be a home out there without too many steps, and maybe the doggie doctor can help me out a bit! Point is, I don't think I'm a lost cause, and neither does this awesome place called the Little Red Barn - they're swooping in to save me and find me a comfy place to rest. See my face? That's my "oh gosh I can't believe this is really happening face! I'm so excited to come meet everyone and be able to live out my life in love and comfort! If you know anyone that would like to host a handsome good boi like me (for a little bit or even forever!) have them fill out an application... though I do hear there's a lot of awesome dogs at the barn, and certainly tons more applications will come rolling in when people see my beautiful mug, so please be patient!
