Here's what the humans have to say about me:
NOTE: Please see our website (www.roversretreat.org) for additional information on the adoption process and more pictures of Freya
This stunningly beautiful golden girl is Freya. Her life prior to rescue was not glamorous at all. She was purchased by a farmer in Turkey and chained in a yard to guard his chickens. When she proved not to be a good guard dog, the owner gave her to our rescuer. Fortunately Freya has adapted to a pampered and happy life very quickly and has not looked back once.
Freya is approximately 3 years old and 74 lbs (a bit chunky) and needs to lose about 10 lbs. She is a moderate energy girl who loves her walks and chasing squirrels. She gets along great with other dogs and cats as well. Freya has discovered the joy of toys, and enjoys playing fetch and all sorts of plush/squeaky/crinkly toys. Freya is a great balance of adventure partner and couch potato…she is up for anything, but once she gets her exercise she is happy to cuddle on the couch and gets lots of rubs from her people.
Freya will alert bark appropriately, such as when someone knocks on the door and when she’s getting accustomed to all the new sights/sounds/smells in her new home. Freya has had no issues sharing toys and affection with her doggie foster siblings. She is happy to meet new dogs, loves going on car rides, and loves splashing around in the water. This girl is an all around great houseguest at her foster home, and a sweet lovable girl.
