Bentley and Frankie are a bonded pair of dachshunds looking for a new home because their owners can see that they would be happier in another home where they can be given the time and attention they deserve.  They are a friendly and easy-going couple who are looking for a comfy sofa to snooze on, some interesting walks and lots of cuddles.   

Bentley and Frankie are a sweet-natured pair who love their family and are good with people, children and other dogs.  Frankie is the more confident of the two and will accept cuddles from anyone.  Bentley takes a bit of time to get to know you, but once he accepts you, you will have a friend for life!  Both dogs walk nicely on and off the lead outside the house and enjoy nothing more than a good sniff and explore. Bentley loves his stuffed toys, especially their ears while Frankie enjoys nothing more than playing tug of war with his rope toys.

Inside the house, both dogs are house-trained and sleep together in a crate.  Frankie is fed separately from the other dogs in the house as he does not like to be disturbed when eating by the other dogs, but this is straightforward to manage.  The dogs are used to being left on their own for periods of time (up to 4 hours), although Bentley will be on the look-out for any potential intruders and have a good bark if needs be.  

Both dogs are in good health for their age.  Bentley has a cyst in one eye which his vet is happy to monitor.  Frankie is allergic to chicken and grass and this is well managed through diet and bathing.  The Red Foundation will discuss these pre-existing conditions with potential adopters.

This pair love each other dearly and would make a wonderful, ready-made dog family for their next, forever family.
