Also, to finish off what I missed out, as he hasn't had the socialisation with his litter mates he goes to my mums with me on a regular basis as she has 7 dogs, an old english sheepdog, 2 jack russells, 2 westies, a pointer x collie x lab and a boxer x SBt, they are all vaccinated.
I have never had a SBT before or a bull breed. Though my mum had mastifs all her life. But I have always like SBT I think they have amazing temperaments and have always wanted one. Also, my boyfriend has a retriever and a sbt x sheperd who I spent a lot of time with as he works alot so we share the walking of them as when we move in together soon they will be coming along with me and Frankelin.
Also, the story of how I got Frankelin is quite sad and I would like to share it with you. His mum is a APBT and his dad a SBT. His mum gave birth to 9 pups, Frank was the runt of the litter. The owner of the mum and dad was a single mum of 5 children all under 5 in a rough area and his mum and dad were used to protect drugs as she was a dealer and she bred the two dogs to make a bit of extra money. Anyway Frank being the runt when it came his turn to feed his mum had already finished feeding the others and left him out, the other pups picked on him aswell. Anyway, the social services got involved with the family and then so did the RSPCA. The RSPCA claimed the mother, father and 8 pups, but would not take Frank as they didn't have enough staff to hand rear anymore pups and the owner was advised to take him to a vets to be hand reared. Anyhow this ladies next door neighbour was a friend of a friend and this friend got in touch with me as this lady was going to leave Frank to starve to death. Safe to say I went on a 2 hour drive to pick him up, I went the day before the mum and dad and other pups were taken so I got to meet mum and dad, and how they were used as guard dogs I have no idea, they had such beautiful temperaments. But that is how I got my Frankelin.
. I have 2 other dogs, a yorkie who I got as a birthday present when he was a pup he is now 8 years old & a mix breed, I have no idea what she is mixed with, she is called Stella and adopted her from the vets where I work at 12 years old, she was brought in to be put to sleep as her owner was moving abroad. I also have a cat named Onyx who is one and 2 rabbits, Steve and Mable who are also 1.
