Feature creature

Frisco’s big brown eyes are the window into his tender doggie heart.

The 6-year-old border collie/retriever mix likes to romp around in the grass. He returns to those who call his name with a proud prance. And he’ll sit when prompted.

His long black fur is soft and tamable. His vision is slightly cloudy, but it doesn’t slow him down.

Frisco’s owners relinquished him at Spokane County Regional Animal Protection Services on Sunday.
