HAPPY BIRTHDAY FRANKLIN!!
Today, March 18th is our lovable dachshund, Franklin's 5th birthday! That's 31 years in people years (5 years for the first 2 years, then 7 years each year after). We nicknamed him "The Frank-olino" or the "little brown monkey" (not to be confused with Dolly, who we call "Poo-poo head" or the "Grey Monkey.").
Born in South Carolina, he was adopted by Tom five years ago. He was at the back of the cage with his littermates, terrorizing his sister. Tom knew he was the one immediately, and named him Franklin. Franklin has a strong personality. He's full of love, and loves to kiss and be held, whether Tom is sitting in a chair or laying on the floor watching TV. He also loves to sit on the arm rest in our pickup truck when we're driving anywhere.
He's a food hound, and loves his treats! Watching Squirrels as the run around in the backyard from his bed in the kitchen behind the sliding glass doors, is one of his favorite activities. He and Dolly go to doggy daycare and play with dogs their own size about three days a week. He loves his walks with Dolly and daddies, and playing tug of war with Dolly, as the pull the stuffing out of the toy of the week! We're making a special trip to Petsmart tonight for treats!
