5. Frankie
Hello Friends! My name is Frankie I came to the Olive Branch Animal Rescue in a live trap since I was terrified of humans that were trying to help me. I was covered in ticks when I was caught and also I had alot of burrs and things in my untrimmed coat. I am still shy to new humans but once I am picked up and shown that you wont hurt me then I trust you and want you to love me. I seem to be dog freindly and when I see cats I want to bark at them but I dont do anything to them. I have been spayed, fully vaccinated, current on preventives and also all negative on my heartworm combo test. If you ar interested in a sweet little companion please visit our website:olivebranchwv.org to fill out an application! I hope to see you soon!

Adopting a dog in Parkersburg
Most rescues ask you to fill in an application, meet the dog, and pay an adoption fee that usually covers spaying or neutering, vaccinations and a microchip. Many are foster-based, so you'll often meet your dog in a volunteer's home rather than a shelter.
Puppies go quickly, so if you've fallen for one, contact the rescue soon. Ask how big they're expected to grow, and plan for plenty of house-training and training in the first few months.
