My story

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

Meet Freckles — Red-Spotted, Smart, and Sweet-as-Pie

Freckles is a 1 year, 2-month-old Cattle Dog/Pit mix with the cutest red freckles you’ve ever seen and a heart full of potential. She’s silly, smart, and secretly a snugglebug... once she trusts you.

Nervous Nellie at first — new people and places make her shy, but give her time and patience, and you’ll unlock the most loyal little lovebug you’ve ever met.

* Once she’s comfy, she’s:
• A total lap dog
• Can’t control her licker (seriously, brace for kisses!)
• Treat and toy obsessed
• Professionally trained – sit, down, stay, come, and even waits politely for her food ??
• Crate trained and house-ready

!!! A few things about our freckled friend:

*Needs a secure fenced yard

*No kids – too scary.

*No cats – hard pass.VERY SCARY

*Could be OK with a respectful, calm dog friend. Forward dogs are very scary. ??

*Needs someone with herding breed or high-energy dog experience

*Looking for an adventure buddy who’ll give her lots of enrichment and guidance

She’s got that “nervous at first, best friend forever” energy — and if you’re patient and kind, Freckles will blossom into your shadow, your hiking pal, your snuggle partner, and your little ray of sunshine. ??

Are you the one for her? Come meet Freckles!
