BOSTON (WHDH) - A bonded pair of senior dogs are looking for a home where they can spend the rest of their years together after their owner recently passed away, the Animal Rescue League of Boston said.
Franklin, a 9-year-old Shar Pei, and Frieda, a 6-year-old Shar Pei, are no strangers to the ARL. They initially came to Massachusetts in 2018 as part of a transport of dogs from North Carolina and quickly found a home.
“Sadly, their owner recently passed away, and the pair are now looking for a home together to spend their retirement years,” the ARL said in a news release. “Franklin and Frieda are bonded and need to be together.”
While the pups are fun-loving and extremely friendly, the ARL says it understands that it takes a special home to take in two older dogs.
The dogs are mostly healthy but Franklin is prone to ear infections and Frieda’s allergies can cause dry skin or ear infections.
