Frankie, German Shepherd/Akita mix (13 y/o), Barclay & W Broadway, New York, NY • “She was raised in Missouri and recently became a city dog – we moved here six months ago. She’s a straight hunter, so that’s a big thing she’s missing in the city. Rabbits, squirrels. She took down a deer one time. She’s mellowed out in her old age. She likes to do hide and seek – we hide carrots.” | The Dogist

Day 2 of of our love a large dog series ☺️ Meet Ringo, our 7 year old Akita mix. He’s another extremely well tempered dog that has been with Friends for far too long. Why? Probably because he’s larger and older. He’s a favorite of our in house trainer Diane Pearl who’s advocating for him-here’s a few notes from Diane: He’s a well mannered, easy going dog that’s good around people and easy to walk. He doesn’t need a lot of space to roam around and would enjoy leisurely walks around the neighborho
