Can't think of a better way to start the day that watching these two give each other a million kisses. The agreement with the hotel is that Frank sleeps on the porch each night. Honestly, that's what he prefers because he's been sleeping in the street so long. I tried to bring him in one time on a really windy evening, he started whining to get back out after 10 minutes. Each morning when I open the door though, they act like they haven't seen each other in years. It's too cute!

AMAZING NEWS! Frank has been accepted into a foster home in San Diego thanks to a wonderful organization called Animal Rescuers Without Boarders! We are very relieved that Frank will have a safe and loving place to go once we get to the United States. Please help us keep searching for Frank's forever home but in the meantime we are going to celebrate the kindness of this organization.

Frank's trip to Panajachel for vaccinations
29/02/2020
Today is the big day. Frank, Sanchez, and I go across the lake in search of a US certified veterinarian. This should be interesting because we have to go by boat. Frank has also been granted permission to sleep in the garden at night. I paid the hotel owners extra to turn their heads. Sanchez and Frank have the cutest morning routine. When I open the door each morning they smother each other with kisses. Today was no different. Frank has no idea he's about to get shots in his little dog b***y.

So Frank's potiental adoption didn't work out. 😞 Im now back to flooding Facebook with Frank's Face. I've also come up with this ingenious plan to write Ellen DeGeneres every. single. day. until she shares my post. Im sure just one share from Ellen would get this dog adopted in 5 seconds. Maybe she would even adopt Frank herself. Man, what a rags-to-riches story Frank would have. Anyways, here are some pictures from our last walk on the lake just to remind you of how awesome Frank is.
He's essentially a moutain lion.

Frank may have a new home soon! I don't want to jinx it but someone from National Geographic saw his post! I actually contacted somebody about an RV that I wanted to buy and shared Frank's story with them so they would have a bit of a timeline of when I would be arriving to the states. The person with the RV ended up sharing his adoption page on a Facebook group in LA. Then, I was contacted today by a sweet gentleman that is pretty serious about adding Frank to thier beautiful family. It's a big decision so they still need to think it over, but if it all turns out Frank could be living on a farm with seven and a half acres and three siblings! That's exactly what I have been envisioning for him. His potential adopter sent me a bunch of pictures of thier other dogs. They appear to be spoiled and loved. I hope this works out for Frank. What a great ending to his story that would be!
Next week he will be getting all of his vaccinations. There's not a vet in San Pedro that is U.S. certified so I will have to pay a vet from the larger towns across the lake to come over. Once he gets his vaccinations, he will have to wait 28 days before he can fly.
The hotel I'm staying has banished Frank but I am going to have a serious conversation with them tomorrow to allow me to let him in at night. I think if I put some extra money in their hands they will give in. Frank already looks so much better then when he first started following me around. He was smelly, covered in fleas and scabs from scratching, and his fur was stained with dirt. He's been on flea medication for 2 weeks now so his fleas are gone and his scabs Have healed. His fur has already grown in and I was able to give him a bath today finally. I didn't want to give him a bath before because I thought the shampoo and be too painful with his raw skin.
His first bath went really well actually. I took him to the lake and got in the water with him. He was a little resistant at first but then he just stood there and let me scrub him from head to tail. He definitely needs another bath or two but it was a good start.
He's going to look so great by the time we get to the states and place him with his new family

Frank gets his first bath EVER!

Frank playing with my little one. He is so gentle! I was trying to get him riled up and pushed his face. You can be in the video that he wasn't sure if I was playing or not for a second. He's not used to people playing with him and instead is used to being abused. Every day he is getting more and more comfortable with being loved.

I will be coming back to the States in April and I'm trying to find somebody that will adopt this amazing dog from Guatemala. He has been following me around for a week. He is incredibly intelligent and very sweet with other dogs. I'm working on getting him healthy enough to travel. He's had two doses of flea medicine and I've been getting him fat with two big meals a day consisting of chicken, soft food, and kibble. I named him Frankford Alberto Gonzales but he doesn't know it so you can probably name anything you want. I think he's probably around 2 as he still has a little bit of puppy in him. I am happy to pay for his airfare and all of the care that he needs to prepare for his upcoming trip. I haven't booked a flight back yet so I can book a flight coming to the closest airport near you and you can pick up your new adopted fur baby. Feel free to share if you know of somebody that would take this guy. He deserves a loving home. I take care of a bunch of Street dogs when I travel and I've come to terms with the fact that I can only do so much. This guy is different. Although there is one person that is thinking about adopting him, they do not have a yard and I really think that this guy needs to be able to have some space. It would also be ideal if he could have some brothers and sisters, especially if you work all day so he doesn't get lonesome. His life here is in the streets with frequent contact with other dogs and I think it would be best not to move him to a isolated environment. Please message me if you have any suggestions or are interested yourself.
