Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Freedom!
Freedom is the best of both worlds! She loves to spend time playing and exploring, but also loves to snuggle with her human friends. She loves going for walks, playing in the backyard (fetch, chase and light wrestling with her foster brother), but she also is content in the house playing with toys and chewing on her bones.
Freedom loves affection from her human friends, adults and kids alike! She’s just learning how to be part of a family so she whines a little bit when her human isn’t around, but calms down quickly. She’s very eager to please, and there isn’t a single thing her foster mom has introduced her to that she hasn’t loved!
She loves other dogs and is a very submissive — but not shy! — girl. She’s a little “over-anxious” to get up close to other dogs, and likes to jump and play a lot, but stops when she’s corrected by the dog. Freedom knows sit, paw, and comes when called. She’s housebroken and loves car rides, and is working hard on leash- and crate-training. She’s a little jumpy around loud noises, but is easily comforted by going near her foster mom. Freedom even has her own Facebook page! Check it out at https://www.facebook.com/FreedomsFureverHome.
Freedom’s adoption fee is $250 and she’s located in Milwaukee, WI. Because all our Cupids are fostered in private homes, an approved application MUST be on file before proceeding with a meet-and-greet. The online application can be found at http://www.caninecupids.org/adopt-.html.

Our Thoughts on Visual Breed Identification
Visual breed identification in dogs is unreliable. For most of our adoptable Cupids we are only guessing at the predominant breed or breed mix. We think it’s most important is to get to know each dog as an individual! We then do our best to describe each of our adoptable Cupids based on their personalities in order to determine whether they’ll make good companions based on prospective adopters’ lifestyles. Dog behavior is not exclusive to breed — it’s a complex mix of nature and nurture.
