Today, marks a month
of adopting our sweet little shit Frankie home. I mean that with all love in
the world. It’s time to finally formally introduce him to the SUNNYINRENO blog
universe! After all, I’m sure he’ll be on here quite a bit.
Believe it or not Frankie is thee first boy
that we’ve ever brought home! Waymon’s plan to be the only man in the house has
been tossed out the window because this little guy was too irresistible not to
adopt. I told Waymon that since I was being ignored for the past 7 years of
having all girls I would finally get to ignore him for another man ( only
kidding, but seriously who cares about Waymon with Frankie around :) ).
We bought Rory from breeders
and this time around we knew that we wanted to save a puppy. Haidyn and I
walked through the halls of the Northern NV SPCA for just about a month
enduring countless heartbreaks and let downs before finding our little prince
charming.
Frankie is an Australian
Shepheard originally from Elko,NV. The kindest lady at the SPCA introduced us
to Frankie and his siblings, but I chose Frankie because he’s the only one that
wasn’t eager to meet me or Haidyn. Apparently, I love guys who love playing
hard to get. He shyly warmed up to the both of us and after that I knew that he
would fit perfectly in our family. Oh and his killer blue eye ( oh yes you read
that right) was a deal breaker for me.
Frankie’s name
originates from our favorite TV show Dads. Most of you already knew what shows
he’s named after, but for those of you that don’t know he is named after Frank
Reynolds from It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia and Frank (Francis) Gallagher
from Shameless. Thankfully, he’s not a turd like either of those dads! Frankie
is the most well behaved puppy you’ll ever meet . The only time he’s
misbehaving is when him and Haidyn are rough housing or when he meets new
people. Which of course, in time he will stop jumping on new comers. He’s
smarter than any puppy we’ve ever brought home (sorry Rory). He’s low maintenance
and loves to do his own thing. He’s the best cuddler you’ll find and absolutely
loves being out at Hootsee and Papa’s house. He’s very protective of us and is
always on high alert. I thought that pitbulls were protective and boy was I
wrong. This guy is beyond protective at only 4 months !
With Frankie in our
lives, we’ve found a new reason to smile and love again . Obviously, Sassafras
loathes Frankie and all that he is, but that old hag sucks anyways so her
opinion doesn’t count. Frankie finds a new way to pull on your heart strings
every day. Poor guy has so many nicknames that he has to keep track of , but he
gladly will answer to all of them. Just to name a few of his nicknames are ;
Frank, Franklin, Frank and Beans, Frankenstein and my personal favorite
Francois. Waymon has found his new side kick in protecting the house and fellow shithead. Haidyn has
been upgraded to “Ate Haidyn” (Ate in taglog is older sister) , a new best
friend and someone to cause trouble with. And I’ve found my new running partner
, fellow morning pal and the son I’ve always wanted. He came into our lives at the most perfect time
and saved us.
Welcome to the family
Francis Reynolds Gallagher Wells.
