Frankie – Now Adopted!
Frankie is a happy and friendly girl who enjoys being around the young children in foster. She is great with other dogs and whilst she was a bit alert around the resident cats when she first arrived in foster, she generally takes no notice of them now.
She is happy to walk alone or in a pack, but she is a plodder and likes to go at her own easy pace.
Frankie is fine with dogs in and out of the home and can follow simple commands such as sit and paw. She shows no aggression over food or toys etc and she is happy to be groomed and pampered
She is a placid and soft girl who likes a cuddle and a stroke and will take herself off to her bed when she wants her own time.

Can live with dogs: Yes

Things to be Aware of:

The Ideal Family:
Frankie is such a gentle girl around the children it would be nice for her to be rehomed into a family or new home where she is not left for long periods. She would also like another calm dog for company.
She is a bit of a moocher and prefers walks of up to 15 minutes so access to a garden would be preferable as walking with her is limited.
Frankie is a lovely dog who has done well in foster. She is fantastic around children and will suit a new home where there is someone at home for a good part of the day. She doesn’t need lots of walks, just a bit of gentle exercise daily.
Frankie will happily sleep in her crate so this can be continued in her new home.
She has been spayed and she can be left for up to 4 hours during the day and is house trained.
Frankie’s new home can be up to 4 hours from her current location on the North East.
If you have any questions, please ask David Anderson, foster dad to Frankie.
Frankie’s adoption fee is £400 and will need to be paid in full prior to her going home which will also be subject to a home check.
Adoption Information
*** As of April 2019, Geordie Bullies Springboard introduced a small charge to apply to adopt a dog from our charity. *** IF YOU HAVE ALREADY PAID, YOU WILL NOT HAVE TO PAY AGAIN FOR 12 MONTHS***
How will it work?
We will be charging £5.00 per year for membership to apply for a bulldog with the charity, this will also cover the cost of a home check if required. This fee will cover you for one year from the date you apply, you do not pay per application.
For example, you apply for a dog and pay your £5.00 membership, you have a home check and are not successful for that dog, so you apply again for another dog a few months after, you will not pay another £5.00 assuming your situation is the same.
Please note, there is an exception to the above. If you pay your £5.00 and move within the year and require another home check before you have been successful, there will be a further £5.00 charge to cover volunteer expenses of carrying out a new home check.
Your Responsibility as an Applicant
When you are applying for a dog, you MUST make sure you meet the adoption criteria and you are 100% sure you are ready to open your heart and home to a rescue dog. Please pay attention to the requirements of the dog, in particular, consider the following. • How far the dog can travel in relation to where you live. • The suitability of the dog should you wish to add to your pack later. Does the dog you are applying to adopt like other dogs? • Are there any restrictions with the age of children the dog can be rehomed with? If so, how does this match your family unit?
Prior to completing an application form, you will need to pay the £5.00 fee via PayPal. Please put the name of the dog and your name as reference. E.g. Joe Bloggs (your name) / Bella (dogs name). Please make a note of your payment reference number. PLEASE also ensure you select friends and family to avoid fees for the charity, the fees are an extra 30p if you wish to pay goods and services so £5.30 instead of £5.00 When completing the adoption application form, you will be prompted to enter your PayPal reference number and date of payment. If this is not entered, we will not process your application.
