| The Tao of Franklin |
| "After a hard day of inspecting and approving bones I'm dog tired." |
| Franklin is a five year old English Bulldog that can be found holding court with his canine friends in the West Lakeview neighborhood of Chicago. Franklin's favorite places to visit during walks are the venerable neighborhood butcher shops that dot the city. The local butchers have always been extremely welcoming to Franklin and his owner. One day a friendly butcher hand cut a meat and marrow bone on the spot for Franklin. After walking home it was unwrapped from the butcher paper and baked to perfection. Franklin spent the next week gnawing on the bone and licking his chops. From that point forward Franklin knew it was his duty to share the wonders of a hand cut and freshly baked butcher bone with all of his canine brethren across the country. With loads of satisfied customers, Franklin is well on his way to accomplishing his goal. |
