Frito

About

Frito began her life as a street dog in Thailand, making friends with the locals and scavenging for food. Eventually, she was picked up by Soi Dog Foundation, a foundation that rescues and homes dogs who are at high risk for entering the illegal dog meat trade. Frito was chosen by a rescue in San Diego to be flown to the US and matched with a loving home stateside. Jenn was in grad school at San Diego State at the time, and saw Frito on the rescue's Facebook page. When she and Frito met in person, it was love at first pet!
