Name: Freddie
Breed: Pitbull Terrier
Estimated DOB: 11/18/2018
Location: Waleska, Ga
RESCUING FREDDIE
Our friends and FTTF supporters from Barbells For Bullies reached out to us looking for help. Two of their board members found a dog in rough shape and his stray hold was up, meaning he was urgent and at risk for euthanasia. They worked with us to help find him a foster home, so Freddie got his Freedom Ride!
ABOUT FREDDIE
Freddie is around six years old and 65 pounds. He is an affectionate older guy who is also housebroken and crate trained. He has low energy and loves to lounge around preferably with his person right by his side. His favorite activities are hanging out on the couch, chewing on his bones, going on walks, and getting rides in the car. He doesn't love baths but will tolerate them and get in the tub on his own if given some motivations (in the form of treats). When it comes to humans, he’s a calm, sweet, low energy gentleman. He’s eager to please and a sensitive soul, he gets his feelings hurt even by a raised voice and will do as asked.
Freddie hasn't been around cats and would do best with older kids, as younger children may be a bit much for this low-key boy. He does well with the submissive female pitbull and small yorkie in his foster home, but high-energy dogs can cause him some stress & reactivity so he would be best with calm housemates or as an only dog. He likes playing with dogs, but needs an owner who has the experience and confidence to manage him when he gets overstimulated. Freddie can also get reactive around food, so he must be fed in his crate, especially if there are other animals in the home.
Overall, Freddie is really is an easy boy, quiet in his crate, and happy to lay on the couch. He is a wonderful companion and just needs a comfy place to rest his head in his older years. Do you have a spot for him on your couch?
